    if you do this your current post count wont be restored. on many forums iam on, they allow you to change name at least 3 times per year..guess its different process elsewhere. RIP your old acct

     

    i could care less about post counts personally. i come here for the great people and the good information. :)

    Who is going to watch the Super Bowl?

    in The Lounge

    Posted

    That was a nail biter unlike other games were they were too one sided.

     

    I'm sad that the Steelers won again with the close score 27 to 23 in the last minutes but I enjoyed Bruce Springsteen.

     

    I know someone that does not have a TV but they read constantly.

     

    When i was younger i used to read all the time. I ac tually have hundreds and hundreds of books kicking around here (my wife is always trying to get me to part with them but i just cant seem to!)....But with my career, kids, the house, school, hitting the gym, etc.....i really just don't have time to read a whole lot anymore...:(

    do you have a life? :mellow:<_<:huh::lol: j/k

     

     

    lol......i just don't get entertained by tv, and i am very active physically, always have been, just never got into watching sports....i can see why people like them, most of my friends watch em, but for whatever reason they just don't hold my interest......probably if i had to watch one, it would be ufc because its over quick, and i do like boxing and grappling so that might be interesting. :)

    global warming

    in The Lounge

    Posted

    I'm not convinced that global warming is a myth or fact. Either way, it can't be good to be polluting at the rate humankind is polluting, and any anti pollution methods are a good thing in my personal opinion....as long as they are viable, both economically, sustainably, and logistically.

     

    We do a lot of recycling, composting and attempt to be as environmentally friendly as we can be in our home. We aren't perfect, and there is always room for improvement, but if everyone does a little bit of conservation, maybe we can slow the decline of our environment. :)

    Windows XP security tips

    I take exception to your statement about Automatic updates.

     

    Please read:

    At a minimum "Notify me but don't automatically download or install them." should be selected.

     

    I view your signature bordering on spam!

    I agree, not recommended to turn off automatic updates. I always leave mine set to download and then I install after taking a look, mostly because I like to see what they came out with, not because i am worried that they will install something bad. If you have a legit op system and programs, you have nothing to worry about. ;)

    Anyone Heard of "Microsoft 7"?

    in The Lounge

    Posted

    still beta, and will have some issues....vista, for all the bad press is actually pretty awesome. i notice no differences from xp now that its been out awhile and everything is compatible now..........even went back to xp for a bit, but just didn't like it as much anymore.....

     

    as for windows 7, i will definately try it, hopefully like it, and probably will grow through the aches and pains of it! like i did with vista! :)

    the foods we hated as kids

    in The Lounge

    Posted

    Well, at least "cabbagerolls" were one i didn't like. Don't know if i would like them now, probably not. I don't know if they are made outside of Finland? But other wise, i liked pretty much all foods.

    Edit: Hmm, apparently they are made else where too: http://southernfood.about.com/od/cabbagema.../r/bl30620u.htm

     

     

    we had em growing up, loved em then, loved em now!

     

    unfortunately my wife and kids are rather picky eaters so i don't make all the things that i would like.....but anyone that ever has me over for supper knows that it doesn't matter what is served, i love it and am grateful! :)

    As much as I like net neutrality, freedom of expression, etc. I would love to see some kind of regulation of the internet and a bit of accountability. Mostly for child pornography, fraud, and those that spread virus, malware, etc.....I could care less about people spouting opinions, etc. but for those that are hurting others directly and using the internet for these purposes, it would be nice to be able to force a little accountability, etc....I can't believe some of the sites that are hosted, etc.........

    Dear guests,

     

    I've been blocked (and my account now is locked from ip address) in a public forum by a moderator.

    Could you let me know, please, if by using ccleaner, is it possible to reset all my informations about website and its forum? Because, before that, when I was writing website address to search it, system of it, knows me that I'm locked user and don't allow to continue.

    Thanks so muck for reply.

    Not if its your ip.....

     

    google Vtunnel and use it to access so you can contact the moderator....but I would wonder why you were blocked in the first place..... <_<
