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

Hello Dwight! Great to see you alive and kicking :)

Sorry to hear about all those problems - glad you are getting things back in order ;)

You could have shared things here; we could at least have been praying for you.

Like we are for TAandy.

Thanks a ton, yes it is better to talk about things than to hold them all in your own hand.

TAandy... Good luck and let me know if you need any help on the homefront or a person to talk to.

I as well am glad to see this resolved. what he did was stupid. While I'm sure he meant it as a joke it sure did not turn out that way. As a member of Techimo I can tell you that we as a team were not involved nor do we condone such actions. Never the less I would like to appologize to dringdahl and the team as a whole for his actions. I'm sure that is what SJ is trying to do yet he just can't help but stick his foot back in his mouth.

dringdahl, You would be welcome on our team anytime, but that is not how we want to gain our members.

Kinda makes me wonder how he got my email addr I used for it? And also how many other dormant accounts you guys have running on your team from stuff like this.

Dwight,

Thanks for letting us know. I, too, would have added you to my list of folks to pray for. I am sorry that you and TAndy are in troubled times and I have added both of you to my list of folks to pray for forthwith. ... perhaps even fifthwith :p

I had many reasons for joining this team and to my great surprise, the folks here have exceeded my expectations in every regard.

My best and kindest wishes for a fast recovery Dwight, mentally, physically, and financially. I do know how those kind of issues can vex the soul.

I will respond to your email.

Mondo

I couldn't have said it better :p

Heave....Ho

TAandy, Hang in there bud we are all pulling for you.

You are and always have been a great teammate and friend. :p
You are in our prayers, I hope things get better quickly for you as well.

As Jim said:
Bty Dwight it's great to see you on the forum again :p

Its not about numbers...It is about the members;)

We would rather have you around the locker room than hear the echo of what was :)
even if you cannot contribute, you are always welcome here, see, we left the light on for you, and untill you return that light never goes out. It's our symbol of hope, that we will see you again, that all goes well for you and yours, that news of you will make it home, that we will once again share these forums, and that someday we can once more visit old haunts and memories that we created together. You are not alone, you are a TeAmmate, with many other TeAmmates, and TeAmmates stick together through it all, no matter what.

That is what I have learned here.

can't get the quote buttons to work..........

"And also how many other dormant accounts you guys have running on your team from stuff like this." Dringdahl

we wouldn't have any more than a/tech.............no need to go tarring a whole team because of one dickhead ;)

noone at timo knew anything about this. and noone thinks it was anything other than wrong.

well... it's easy enough to run a quick query against my stats to see who has changed teams recently to both our teams... but I'm busy at the moment...

I don't think the intent was to smear all of TIMO... history tells us that the actions of one person can make a whole group look bad, but I'm got several online friends on that team and believe that they wouldn't stoop to this. I'm glad it's all worked out and I hope the appropriate person is appropriately dealt with.

I personally like several of their members and as I told Sharder in a Pm I don't for an instance believe anyone other then SJ had anything to do with the Highjacking. How they deal with him is both their's and THINK's problem.

I guess he can be moved back and forth at will until he changes his email address with FaD -- and on the surface I saw no provision for that on the FaD site.

In all the discussions we have had that I have been part of no one thought for a minute that anyone else at Techimo was involved. I think what DRingdahl was trying to say was that you might want to be sure that this is the only time SiliconJon has pulled this stunt. (he can correct me if I am wrong)

As for quotes, they won't work unless you are signed in first.
