You're being a [pompus] jerk...yeah, my prank was a bit jerky too. I can admit it, can you. But it was still just a friendly (rabble rousing?) prank!

Why do you take it so personally?

I do believe you are the one being a jerk SJ...YOU are the one who hijacked an account...you are the one that is flaunting it in our forum...Freewolf was just pointing out these facts.

If you think hijacking accounts is funny...please take your humor elsewhere.

Im sorry but WTF is going on? SiliconJons posts are quite unintelligible.

What I see:

1. Jon hijacked account
2. Jon moved to TIMO
3. Jon brought it back
4. Now someone made an account of the same name on TIMO

None of this makes sense if DRingdahl had been sumbitting results for a while.

You pretty much got it right.
Dringdahl hadn't returned any results for a while and I don't know if he is the one who setup the account on timo now or not.

Obviously SJ is looking for attention. Any response to his inane posts only encourages him to make more of them. I propose that we all henceforth ignore him totally and let the Mods take care of him.

I won't bother insulting your team because I have talked with others from TIMO and you are not representative of the people from there. You have a lot of nerve hijacking an account and then coming around here insulting others! If you were a member of TA, I would ask you to leave because you reflect poorly on your team.

Stealing from others whether it is intended as a prank or not is still stealing. Taking a joyride means you return the car, but guess what the cop will still charge you with stealing it. Taking things without permission is not cool, it isn't funny, it is childish and criminal.

If you act like a child and a criminal we don't want you around.

I don't think he talked to DRingdahl at all.

DRingdahl was well liked around here and I think he liked everyone also.

He didn't leave because of any problems here that I can remember. I don't think he ever really left, I think life got in the way of DC.

Also, he crunched for many projects for the TeAm.

Hum... You converted my points before I did???

Thats is not cool... In fact that is just not right.

I had some crunchers pointing to your team, but snagging points from one team to another without telling the person is flat out wrong...

Then whoever took them back is also a criminal, because they didn't ask Dwight and he wants them back so he can crunch on our team with them behind him. But I wouldn't be rediculous enough to actually think that...just putting your comment into perspective.

When the old account first returned to Anand's team I thought Dwight may have done that, but that's not the case. He set up his new crunchers with his old email, and since someone [here?] stole his points in retaliation he can not get his points back. If someone here is responsible please return them to him, as even I would not have kept them from their owner by changing his account info...all I did was change his team.

You're a d!ck!

I'm sorry. I meant no harm from the beginning...then I got wrapped up in my prank. I definitely didn't want to make Dwight mad. I didn't even ask Dwight to join until I saw that my jerkery switched his points. I had no intention of keeping them, but I can tell that makes no difference in how big a jerk I look to be.

FYI:

Crunchers and points should be back at Anandtech.

I have sent mondo an email about getting him a new Dell computer. Sent to his webiste email addr. If you read this mondo email me at ringdahl@dialaccess.net.

As for my absence... I guess I'll explain a little of what has happened in my personal life not that any probably give a $hit but... ;)

Last year has been hell... I had sold my internet company, to crooks which didnt pay in full. (shafted over 7.5m dollars) My shareholders sued the living crap out of me, still paying on a 300k bill for computers, tax man came after me for 97k... And I was forced into a make as much $$$ as I could mode so I have been very busy building up a mortgage biz which is doing very well now (Spam ahead) www.wga-loans.com

I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel now, and thank God for a good women by my side.

Sorry for the delay and falling off the face of the earth, but I'm back... :) And you'll see a bunch of computers get cranked back up... Still dreaming of my 128 AMD64 rack... :) Now with dual processors though... Dream, dream... Well that is what make life fun dreaming, right?

Thanks
Dwight

Dwight, glad to hear you are back on your feet. I wish you nothing but health and prosperity. I had feared that you had health problems, which IMHO are worse than $$$ problems.

Take care of yourself and I appreciate you attempting to make things right with Mondo and the Athlon race.

Ross
