Mass banning? First I had heard of that? Sounds kind of impersonal.........
It should be on a more personal level, right Ghobo?

Not necessarily, Bel. If I'd had my way, You would've been banned long ago! But, it's nothing personal, Bel!
As for the "mass banning".... I wouldn't know. It didn't affect me since I was on vacation.

I was able to read the threads and there were comments about having been banned. I wasn't banned, like last time I was absent (found out it was FLYING J's internet access), I simply could not get in. This week, I'll be off for hours, and maybe even days, because since I don't have an air-card, I may not have access every time I stop. I figure anyone else that seems to go AWOL for a time may be in the same situation.
Having to get a monitor for a laptop is a real bummer. Integrated video cards don't replace will. Must be a DELL. It went on my other laptop too. First it started 'bleeding" red over everything, then went dark about a week later. Really miss that screen... It had "ANTI-GLARE". But in order to get the video working again, I have to replace the mother-board. Might as well get a new laptop... It works out to be cheaper. Cure the problem and get an upgrade, all in one. Hardware and software, both.
But, then... I'm like everybody here... Trying to figure out how everything works again.

I love/hate the Rev, because he's so bent, twisted and disturbed.
Come to think of it...he should be a mod!
I'm rather bummed lately. I have no short list. I'm anxious to ban someone, or at least hand out infractions.
I've had to practice on myself...like buying a taser, and wanting to test it out.
Those infractions really hurt!
I wanted to try the ban button. I figured I'd ban admin Lee since he banned me aboat a week ago..eh.
I got a jolt off my keyboard so bad, my whole left side was numb for 2 days. I tried to tell a few people how I flopped around on the floor like a fish,
but I couldn't pronounce fish...it came out like fifth...so they all just thought I was drunk.
I gotta knock off this testing on myself crap....maybe encourage Bel to act up.

Practice with the duplicate accounts that some of us created when we couldn't get on the new site. Unless you prefer playing with yourself.

Yeah, I got a quote of about $700 to fix it. I only paid $650 for the laptop new. I guess my "once a year" laptops are still holding true. I had such high hopes for this one (a Lenovo business laptop). But I've gone through 3 laptops in 3 years. Time to move on to #4....
