New to AnandTech... Hi *waves*

[ubern00b]

Didn't see a new members intro forum so just thought I'd pop on here and say hi for anyone that gives a crap new to AT though an ex long term poster from *another* forum (9 years, 6k posts and 3k likes) just got sick of the constant crap with threads constantly being trolled and mods not doing anything to keep them on topic** until they reach boiling point... so have decided to defect I'm not here just to up my post count as I do like getting involved in helping forum posters out and have been overlocking and an enthusiast for 15+ years now. Have a bit of experience bios modding and helping people unbrick their flashed GPU's as well as other things. Guess I'm just looking to find a new home on the web when I'm not working, gaming or doing the family thing (ie: when the kids are in bed mainly ) so yea... Hi! I am from the UK if that matters and my avatar represents another love of mine. I look forward to contributing and hopefully making some new friends in the process, though it does kinda feel like being the new kid at school lol hopefully my knowledge and contributions won't be judged purely on my post count and time registered, I'm too old to be a newbie now anyway despite my username

Lol yup another bloke sorry, is it a bit of a sausagefest here then?
Thanks for the headsup(s)

But OT means off topic...

Fixed that... no room for error it seems

It is that, for sure. The awkward basement dwellers tend to run the gals off with pics of their geek equipment.

I just meant another Brit.

Is that the bloke that sold a 55 gallon drum of lube to Olds???

Bet you wanna thank him, don't you?

 

[zinfamous]

don't ask highland to loan you any money.

ever

 

[ctbaars]

I thought OT was "On Topic" and "Off" was sarcasm

 

[highland145]

See, OP, zin's already maligning my character. I'm not saying it's without good reason but, damn, you just got here.

 

[ubern00b]

Been here 5 mins and started something already

Ok newb questions to remain OT... (sure that's the correct context now..) How do I add a sig? How do you rate someone's post?

 

[highland145]

Told you he was a problem.

Hover on the thumbs up. Sig under your profile.

I don't think you can rate posts until you have x number of posts yourself.

Definitely being a noob, it just shows a "reactions" caption

I don't think you can rate posts until you have x number of posts yourself.

Ahhhh that would make sense!

Good morning fellow noobie.
We are mostly Yanks here except for the red squirrel and others from up north in Canada aye.

The mods usually do a good job, stay clear of P&N if you want to remain sane...

 

[Ajay]

Stay out of P&N.

ay clear of P&N if you want to remain sane...

P&N is double plus ungood. I got trapped for a while because of Trump - now I steer clear 99% of the time and I think my blood pressure has actually decreased!

It`s not very hard to malign Mickey Mouse.....Just as Goofy....

Not true!!! he can buy into this by purchasing a handy dandy 55 gallon drum of Lube for the lifer break room!!!

Ugh. If you have one single "conservative" thought, the knives come out. If you are a moderate liberal, you are a traitor. Awesome.

 

[JEDIYoda]

Bet you wanna thank him, don't you?

I do want to thank him....now that the Lube supply has been refilled we won`t see much of you..a.hahahahahaaaa

 

[JEDIYoda]

I thought it was the other way around???
Oh well, fresh meat is still fresh meat....UUUmmmmm

[ubern00b]

Ah well, I'm in the UK, from what I can gather P&N seems to be more geared towards the US so I probably won't venture there too much anyway, though is it not the same for every AMD/Intel/Nvidia thread?
