What happened to all the techies?!

DaveDXB

I know this is not a forum for IT nerds...but for Gods sake... almost a week has passed by and the IT forum is dead :( Who am I going to socialize with...... :cry: I love I.T.!!! where did all the love for windows, unix go too? the endless debate of network security and know how... nobody seems to care anymore lol?

one word dude: poontang. *winks at my fellow SouthPark fans* I know, I know I am really pushing it now... After the avatar thing ppl must've thought I would calm down, but what do you want... It's a problem with the hormones I guess... :lol: :lol:

Dave if you had brought in some challenging issues to the IT forum to discuss i am sure lots of us would join in. But all i see you contribute is silly comments and stupid polls. Thank you, try again.

I used to like talking about computers and IT when I was younger, but as you grow older, there just becomes more important things in life than prattling on about pentiums and ram and networks and blah blah. The thing I noticed about IT obsessed geeks is they try to one-up each other's knowledge with how much they think they know and it's just irritating childish crap. crap crap crap. So I'd prefer a forum that left the geek wars somewhere else and let real people discuss real issues and socialise in real ways.

mmm....good point.
