no-no-no, no mic... must get a headset

Yep headset preferred although sometimes like tonight I prefer to just listen. So I put away the headset and just listen in.

Earlier Staples was having a "nerd fight" with some other AT'ers it was pretty funny.

Yeah, but people who don't talk on any of these three can bitch and moan about it all over the internet? :roll:

Yes, because normally the we can follow the "bitch and moan" IMO Nik.

Holy late reply, batman!

There's a lot of crap that gets posted on AT that only a certain people groups understand.

I thought you would have figured that out by now.

Yes Nik, there are things post on AT that only certain people understand, but if you look hard enough, you can usually figure it out if you search hard enough. Take "Spider" for instance; new members might not know the story but searching through the threads will get them an answer. Random stuff posted from Skype, Teamspeak, Ventrilo & the like just does not make any sense here because members who do not use those apps. do not have any clue as to what is going on, nor will they be able to.

Yeah, I totally agree! We're not on IRC or in a chat room. Alternatively, you could PM each other or just leave it in one thread exclusively for Skype, Teamspeak, Ventrilo or whatever else you call it. Geeez!

Actually, we do leave it in one thread

It's even stickied...

i think you can unwad your panties at anytime now. so what if someone starts a topic on something you aren't familiar with. bypass it or read it and learn. it's that simple.

and i don't see many topics started on this so let it roll. i see no harm.

Oh, I wouldn't have a problem with that, but it isn't the case here. There's the stickied thread, but there are a lot of non-stickied threads on Skype, Teamspeak and Ventrilo. Someone starts a thread everyday either inviting anyone else up for a chat or trying to post their conversations from the night before.

Just to accurately track the history, I believe the spirit of what has now become Anandtech Ventrillo channel began with RossMAN volunteering to call Anandtech users, or have them dial his toll-free number back near the beginning of the year (or earlier? I can't recall Ross). It has since evolved through several stages and applications (Skype, TeamSpeak, and now Ventrillo) prior to settling on the latest medium, at least temporarily. A number of the threads created during these last few months were annoucements of such (a few "Call me, I'm bored" threads, a few Skype threads, a few TeamSpeak threads, etc). Now nearly all the related posts are contained within the Ventrillo thread that has been stickied.

As far as starting "a thread everyday", I do not believe such is the case any longer. There were occassional threads of some comments that (at least, to some of us) were universially hilarious, even if not present during the actual conversation - much like a thread about a joke, or humorous story. Considering some of the rampant blather than often ends up in Off Topic, I would deem this a fairly benign infraction (if it could even be considered such); and since the inception of this thread, has no longer been an issue as nearly all related comments are resticted to the aforementioned stickied thread.

Hopefully, that clears up any confusion on anyone's part. With that, I think I can safely speak for most involved, and say we welcome all AT members old and new to join in if they wish to do so. Please be certain to bring along your sense of humor, if you do - though occassionally we cover serious subject matter, as well. We're fairly accepting of all, except for Nik (who is the ultimate racist bastard).

Sorry Zim I know you're going to hate this, so close your eyes ... Tim/Mark/Steve/Etc is one person (ActuaryTm). It's yet another "inside joke".

Here have a :beer: on us
