Got Something You Want To Say?

what's up with the banners?

I think Genma is tying to get money to pay for the server / hosting.

Oh, happy happy day!!

I have just found out that Telstra (national govornment-owned telco) has decided to remove the artificial 1.5MB cap they had on the ADSL equipment. Previously the fastest speed we could get on ADSL was 1500/256Kb/s..... Once this is done it will be 8000/384. YAY! Almost decent ADSL! This will cost ISP's nothing since they don't have to do anything different. My ISP will be offering a free upgrade from 512/128k (which i'm on at home) to 1500/256 as soon as this is done. 3 times the speed! YAY! Then i'll seriously look at getting a 8000/384 connection, depending on the cost.

I don't know what any of that means, but you sound excited. So... congrats! YAY!

Basically: 3 x faster downloads for no extra cost to me :)

I wasn't around in the general discussion threads much then.


Well........i'm surpirised I'm awake right now :shocked:
Thought I was goin to oversleep since I didn't set alarm :beaten:

I don't mean to go off anyone's discussion but everyone here seems like a tightly knit group of friends, and I hope I'm not the only one to feel like this or bring attention to myself but when I read here I feel like I'm really left out. I have no idea whats going on (...probably because I started last month...) but it is really nice to see everyone getting along and being themselves.

Especially funny ones but we're polite regardless.... :hehe:

Hi TandemPonyRide - Welcome! We have all felt the same as you when we first joined this MB. Half the time I still don't get the inside jokes here. :bonk: I like the people here who know how to be polite, respectful, caring and informative while having a sense of humor. If you really get confused pick a few people here whose posts you enjoy and send them a PM and ask questions. I am sure they won't mind. This is a very helpful group. :)

Oooh b-kun I am so sorry to hear about your HD problems. I hope you find a solution to your problems soon. :hug:

Hey TandemPonyRide, I feel like this too, but it is only because of being a newbie, I'm sure.
Everyone here seems really nice, but a lot of them have been here much longer than we have, so they know each other well, which is only natural.

If you don't understand something, don't be afraid to ask...I'm always doing that.
Like with the Monkey's Hand. :mrgreen:

Guess I'm going to have to wait until I see NWP to fully understand this, lol.

See it soon!! Do yourself a favor!! :woot:

paraphrasing the new republican neo-con line on illegal immigration...

"all the abortions performed in the US caused a shortage in farm workers, thus creating a need for illegal immigrants to do the work"


OMG, the sad part is some in middle america will believe it. :shakehead: :shakehead: :shakehead:

I agree...everyone has been so supportive, friendly and sometimes downright humorous. I'm quite happy to be here. This place is sometimes like a good party...no matter how tired I am, I just can't sign off because I'm enjoying myself too much and don't want to miss out on anything. And when I step out of line, they're always there to give me a slap on the head...just to knock some sense back into me...tough love, I call it. :victory:
