Ha, nice try, I live at 10 Downing Street and will be looking out one to the left on the top floor...

As for lead kebabs...is your kebab shop really that bad at cooking?

I see, though I do not wish to know anymore about that and well, please go ahead and start a thread about it, you know you want to...

Quote: "Well yes. But it is a good thing. You live longer Although being in Cyprus has shown me a whole new league of laziness altogether."


Good point...so that's why the national dish of Wales is a cheese toasty? Laziness is good, except when you realise your room is a pig-sty...yes, mine is one, but hey, I'll clean it up before my parents make a visit.

It's excellent actually. You seriously have to struggle to get lamb here, but they manage to make beef kababs taste just like the lamb ones from back home. Lovely.

I think I can resist. I can get my jollies from her rather than a thread.

Quote: "so that's why the national dish of Wales is a cheese toasty?"
No-one actually eats it.

Yeah, I was always like that. After a few months it would take half a day to sort out sometimes Not buying mags (cost a bomb for UK ones here) seriously helps out a lot. As is making sure you reduce your Shrekiness to stop your bird running away or having a brain hemorage from the smell

The more the merrier Monocoder, I'll keep mine and whoever likes yours can use it - I think the more sigs the more people will click,

Hehe, I'm using this evening to tidy up - as for mags, well a stall at the market here sells back issues for £1 on any magazine, which is cool. As for birds...well I have none and the only kind that'll find my room attractive are Seagulls...but it's not at the Shrek stage yet, just loads of crisp packets, empty bottles, paper, sainsburys bags etc. Give it a month before there's the smell of an old forgotten sandwich.

Cool, some reason I want to make a sheep joke, but I know they're over rated, boring and too cliche, so I'll refrain from doing it, as it would only backfire having being born in Hawarden and being called Bryn.

At Uni I once lived in a big room in a hotel. We all went to this beer festival on campus, and played rugby with about 200 other people in the inch or so of beer on the floor (never seen a beer fountain from a "scrum" before? Is a sight I tell ye...). Totally dripping from head to foot in super strong beer we were. I was so plastered that I just chucked my soaked through jeans into the corner. Being such a big room, combined with super lazy welsh genes, and mixed with a bit of never go back to your roominess, after about 3 months of fermenting it was totally dire. Thats what you get for totally avoiding home because you and the lads got in with a gang of nurses. So, no, not a total loss that one... But yes, thats the level of shrekness I'm talking about.

Also my record for leaving an unopened suitcase in the corner after being on holiday is about 5 months. The secret to all this is to remember instinctively to jump over things when half asleep going to toilet. So not to kill yourself. My old manager has the record though at about 7 years. He slightly cheated though as he had 4 bedrooms, and didn't really use one of them.

Quote: "some reason I want to make a sheep joke, but I know they're over rated, boring and too cliche"
Don't know what you are talking about. Being Welsh, it's all my bird used to talk about in emails to me originally (honest). That and certain unmentionable things. I even got her a lamb teddy bear. It's like a favourite "our" song or something... BTW, nothing I said there was a joke in any way.

Quote: "being called Bryn"
Ah, hill boy. I forgot. Didn't I tell you my crushed english uni mate story who thought he was called Mountain in Welsh? Hehehehe....

I've signed up to MySpace (reluctantly), I'd rather see it somewhere on a real forum instead because of that sign-up delay. However, expect more randomness soon.

Okay, fairplay everybody, let me sort one out if people would prefer a proper forum...I'll being doing it straight after this post. (I won't do phpbb, that's the most prone for spam)

Quote: "Quote: "being called Bryn"
Ah, hill boy. I forgot. Didn't I tell you my crushed english uni mate story who thought he was called Mountain in Welsh? Hehehehe...."


You certainly have, I don't see why he isn't happy with being a hill - yeah sure they're not as interesting as mountains but they're still beautiful all the same. (Just a way to complement myself, I mean Bryns are beautiful aren't they Dazzag?)

Quote: "Don't know what you are talking about. Being Welsh, it's all my bird used to talk about in emails to me originally (honest). That and certain unmentionable things.

Interesting thought, I take it you're both a fan of Shaun the Sheep...if not, then how come? He's a legend!

As for the pigsty stuff, I don't think I'll let myself beat any of your records because I took the initiative to clean up this evening. Also, this seems a lot like the talk that I'm suppose to be solving and helping remove it from the forum, damn you Dazzag, foiled me again.

Right, I have a forums sorted instead of using pain-in-the bum MySpace, it's not phpBB or anything like that, but Drupal...As I am not at my home address, I cannot do much in terms of customisation to the website - but it really serves another purpose.

Now you will notice once you remove all that sits after the / in the url you will get a directory rather than a main page - I can sort that with my FTP program I got at home - expect that to be fixed in December - but this shouldn't cause a problem.

New forum, you can't have avatars, but I might be able to try something once I get to my main computer in December, but the website host I am using is quite restrictive on their MySQL settings, so I might not be able to.

I'll edit this in above.

In your forums theres only one board with any messages in it, and all 4 of those are by you (or whomever Bryn is)

whats the deal?
is no one using the alternate forum for useless threads?

Cattle Rustler, I just set that one up half an hour a go, give it time. (heck my little admin panel tells me tha_rami has signed up) The original idea was done as a MySpace group, but became a problem as some people dislike MySpace and of course aren't members (new members need to wait a week before doing anything)

Also CR, it would be interesting if you came up with one of your political discussions on there, I think some of us have been interested by them, but have really not been able to discuss them without breaking the AUP.

So I set it up as a forum to satisfy and accommodate for more people...don't you worry, I've gained enough interested to get this started.


UFO, I think before nobody saw that it was needed (to be honest, the dirt in the forum has only just been kicking up), but I've already gained enough interest and support to get this kicked off- the MySpace group has picked up a few members already and they did start posting. As for getting locked, BatVink seems to like the idea and whoever edited my original title 'A Solution!' with the extra bit in brackets to draw more attention must like the idea.

Just wait for the MySpace people to switch over to the new forum and for us to advertise this in our sigs and for us to get topics moving, we'll have the random off topic/banned stuff in one place. (Well mostly.)

Of course, if it doesn't work, no biggy, I mean at least I can say I tried to help redirect unwanted posts and keep this place cleaner.

Ah right, I forgot it was MySpace first... sorry. That explains it, its still new.

That sounds good. Email me with what in particular, if anything, was the topic of interest.

No problem, personally I don't mind what topic you discuss - though I will give you an email with some possibilities - I probably won't make a contribution until late tomorrow or even Sunday (got work to do) and thanks for whatever you do end up posting.


Also, just as a question to anyone

Is anyone have problems logging in? I just want to see, I've never actually had anyone use this website for a while - all of the accounts signed up are active, yet nobody has logged in...(Directed at tha_rami and Zotoaster mainly, who at last check were my only two new members. )

It's worth a try.

About the lack of quality threads......interestingly enough, i haven't contributed to that. I might however have contributed to the "attitude" that started it, but as the proffesional say on TV "We know what we're doing, this is dangerious and don't try at at home". Still people insist on trying to mimick the great professionals(Zombie, Sep etc) and fail miserably. *sigh*

I got invited by two women who insisted they liked my profile, although I had not put up a mugshot or any personal details, except for my name. So I don't see what they liked about my profile. I think maybe its spam or something, because they were linked to some dating sites and stuff, and I turned them down.

Cool, and the MSN button doesn't seem to work for me...forum bug? But don't worry about it, I started the topic anyway with something small to get something moving. (With a topic everybody will be now know different sides of the argument)

Indeed, it was a female friend that got me into Shaun the Sheep and then I ended up watching a whole series at once...times like these make you jealous of Richard Davey.

And cheers for signing up, and to be honest, I can't remember how the sign up works, though I did set it up so that you should receive a confirmation email (to stop spam, as spam ruined my other website) I don't know if there password is there, but if you have any problems, I'll make sure your account is active, email me a password (something random) I'll change it to that so you can log in and change it to what you want. That is, if you have a problem.

As for a sticky, good point - if a mod doesn't read these two posts, then I'll drop an email and see if they agree with the idea for a sticky.

Well of course. I can't see any other way how this could happen to a bloke. Nicely she also is into the 80's (best decade ever) so I can also chuck in a lot of old series and I don't get too many strange looks. Even Roland Rat and Kevin serves me well

Quote: "if you have any problems, I'll make sure your account is active, email me a password"
I didn't get an email so I emailed you directly.

Quote: "see if they agree with the idea for a sticky"
Don't see why not. The geek talk forum stays pretty tidy and we all have a place to talk rubbish (which everyone must admit can be really fun) all for the price of a sticky or a hyperlink. Heh, back in 2000/01 I may have mainly posted tech posts here (not now really), but I was well known for stupid posts about beer, birds, and smokes.

Cheers

Birds, beers and smokes...aside from the latter that's still quite common now.

Also, your account should be sorted now, give it a shot if you haven't already.

I'll give a mod a moment or two to see if they notice your request for a sticky, otherwise I'll drop them an email.

Yes, I quit almost half a decade ago (30th birthday). For a while there it was just posts about birds as I gave up beer completely for a year or two too. I know I know... Then I saw the light again

Quote: "Also, your account should be sorted now, give it a shot if you haven't already"
Yep, works fine. Although would prefer if you could sort out the formatting. My 1600x1200 and 1920x1200 displays don't look too good. Over half the screen is blue borders on me 1600x1200 display. Also not 100% with the last posts first ordering. Too used to DB style really. And after chucking the idea at Rich for about half a decade or so, I'm a total fan of the "newest post" button.

Actually, is it possible to get a separate installation of Apollo for this? Dunno if Rich lets anyone else use it though. Would be great though.

I'll see what I can do - send me a screenshot of how it looks on your computer - when I get back from lunch I'll allow you to access all of the drupal themes I've installed and see which works best for you. Highest I've tested it at is 1280x1024 and they seem to work fine, neither my laptop nor monitor can go higher.

As for the forum orders, I'll check what settings there are for that, if any. But it shouldn't take too long to get the hang of that way, I mean I adjusted pretty quickly...but I will see what I can do with that anyway.

Here is a snapshot from a 1600x1200 screen. I'll get a 1920x1200 one if you want, but am sure would just be more blue border.

Cheers

I see, I've set it up so you can try out different themes - Minelli and Barlow are the two themes that squash the content, but the others should be fine - I'd probably recommend using the theme 'Arc Materia' or 'Garland' to suss out your problem.

Hey guys. I got bored and whipped up another sig for the your little off topic world. I won't use it myself but for everyone else, feel free to use it!



You guys will have to link the pic to the site though, I'm too lazy.

Nice image Crazy Ninja, I'm still gonna stick with mine, but anybody who wants to support this may use it. (And considering it looks cool, I recommend somebody does use it, so the efforts aren't wasted)

OK I put the little image in my signature. For some reason though all the forms were blank and I couldn't be bothered to do anything about it so I think I've just erased all the other data... oh well

Maybe I'll join the forum at some point, but only if I have a sudden urge to post about pointless AUP breaking stuff

@Gaming Colosseum: hahaha I like the sound of your school :p

@Seppuku: I'm not getting any kind of activation email from your new forums I signed up yesterday in the middle of the day. Now I have nowhere to make my post I was going to make when I got back at about 2 or 3 this morning, having made god knows how many drunken texts and suchlike, what with the whole turning {legally allowed to drink} today.

Like what I did there? Not actually specifically mentioning my age but leaving it pretty obvious to anyone who's interested what it is

Really? (Check your spam mail)

I'll set you a password and email it to you and then you can change it afterwards.
