deskthority

Guys, I am sorry if I have acted in a way that is annoying or in any way irritating. I am not to proud to say that I have faults, and I hope that you will accept my apology in good grace. I am not perfect, any more than anyone else could ever be.

Please forgive my frantic thread-starting... and if I have annoyed you, or you annoyed me, I hope we can bury it and move on. I don't come on here to cause annoyance, and I do not wish to have people see my username and think "oh no, not him!". I also have no reason or right to judge anyone else on here, as noone has the right to judge, and noone includes me.

Bless you all, thank you for this communuity

Matt

Np!

And don't take it personally. Germans are easily irritated.

I can't believe you started a new thread for this.

I had to laugh. That was my first thought.

Well I wanted you to notice it. This is the last new thread without my seeing if Wikis/older threads answer my Q's first. I'm admittedly an impatient person at times, and I need to deal with that.

Regards.

I was only jesting, but it's hard to express that without putting loads of smileys and LOL all the time - and I don't do LOLs, I'm a Yorkshireman.

OP is a TimeLord!

i'm with you. it's not often i actually laugh out loud when i see stuff on this forum. GH perhaps a little more often.

Thanks for letting us dream for a moment.

Also, thanks to webwit because I was close to cancel the switch order ...

But I'm still a bit dizzy of the speed in which all these posts appeared. Deskthority used to be a quiet place. I liked it that way. Let's hope, that now the posts get fewer again, but contain much more content. I mean, I was a little afraid of creating too many threads in too little time, but compared to him my threads were nothing. In only a few days he collected nearly as many posts as I did in my whole membership, which is around half a year.

Isn't it the Internet Age yet in the EU?

You have to understand that, for the last couple of months and even to this day, we were continuously trolled by our own president, and at least for me, that is one reason why I'm not particularly fond of trolls at the moment.

Ah, Ich verstehen.

We have Obama so we are all happy.

who's trolling whom now... why is there a youtube link in your post Lustique?

But I agree, all this trouble about Wulff... I mean, if his predecessor would have tried sitting it out like he did, he would have remained in office much longer. And we wouldn't have had to pay the honorarium for two politicians now. Georg Schramm for Bundespräsident!

His posts at Geekhack are all legit.

He still posts there.

Edit: Lol - just noticed when I click on my profile it says "#1 Idiot On Planet Earth".

I wanted to put it "behind" the smiley, but this doesn't seem to work in this forum (it should have been something like an inside joke or something like that). (That's just my personal recommendation for his "Zapfenstreich" tomorrow. I think it would fit him rather well, at least some of the lyrics and the title... Oh, and I love the intro riff. )

Well, at least Köhler wants to abdicate his honorarium, although I think that he would at least deserve it. But although I don't really like our next president, at least he is no politician, just as Köhler. Well, if I was to decide, I would just put every politician in a big sack and then hit this sack repeatedly with a mace or a very big steak hammer until I would get a jelly-like substance. And then burn it, twice.

Yeah, Gerhard Polt would be fine, too.

I dont get why anyone would give you problems for asking questions thats why you are here. Don't let the few assholes bother you

It's your sig, you can set it in the user control center.

Deskthority has made you an honest man. I have more respect for you now.

Nice sig.

LOLs are less civilized.

Can't wait for the next US Election Circus. Which lizard will win?
The best part is the "intellectual" choice, Ron Paul.

Actually I'm more into Eurovision.

Do all Dutch people want to be American Indians? Reminds me of that other hit band from Denmark.

Well, I do not fear change at all! Bring it on, I have a huge money box to fill!

No problem. Rounding error is due to epoxy glue.

Cheers! I'm as bad as everyone else at times, however.

I don't get how people are unable to do some research on their own.
