Hello All!

Postby Tidus » Thu 11 May, 2006 8:39 am

Hello everyone!

Hello everyone!

I'm new here, please be nice, many other people in forums haven't been!

I treat people how i like to be treated, which is with respect!

I'm Tidus, i'm Senior Executive of KJC, and i'm here to offer anyone a bit of professional advice with PC's and Windows

I like Apples, my wife Kasumi uses them, and gives me lectures on the advantages of Mac over Windows! And i'm thinkin of takin her up on it, if Micro$haft carry on with their silly antics! I don't use Apples much though, i only started using them when DJGM (Greg), my best m8, gave me an old PowerMac G3 to mess around with, so i'm a newbie with Apple machines.

I am extremely Anti-Dell, i hate them, their proprietary cheap systems, crap customer support, now don't swamp me with messages saying Apple do the same, i know, but at least Apple don't hide the fact, like Dell!

I look forward to chatting with you guys!

Hello Tidus,

Welcome to SillyDog701. I hope you will find SillyDog701 Message Centre a good place to stay.

As you might have noticed, SillyDog701's main focus is browser support(mainly Firefox and Netscape). Over the years, we've added a few more sections, including Apple Mac and PC and general gadget discussion.

In general we are a nice community, we welcome all different opinions and we encourage intelligent debates.

Welcome on board.

Antony.


BTW, there's nothing wrong with Dell, [sdt=11318]you can follow my points[/sdt] in another thread.

G'day, and welcome to the SD701 forums! :)

If your a friend of DJGM, then do you like Pepsi Max as much as he does? :P

Well, i prefer a nice big bottle of Lucozade Energy, but i do like Pepsi, yes!

Thankyou for your warm welcome Antony, i've heard a lot about you, and look forward to discussions, i'm sure they'll be funny!

If you like Dell, fine, it's your opinion m8, i have had very bad experiences with them, both personal and business like

I'm glad i have you, Greg and my wife as Apple fanatics, when i finally get my old Mac running, i'll have plenty of help ;)

I look forward to working with the SillyDog team!

Welcome Tidus!

Glad to have you join the SillyDog701 Community. We're a friendly bunch here, and you won't be mistreated. :mrgreen:

I am a Dell owner, and my Dell is approaching it's 6th birthday. It runs perfectly, but I have to agree with you in that Dell has bastardized all the drivers, etc., with their signature. It is impossible to update drivers, other than at the Dell site, and due to the age of my PC, I can no longer update. Bah humbug!

Tidus: Welcome to SillyDog!

Its great to have more computer expertise on hand.

I'm also certainly no lover of proprietary parts, although it seems hard to avoid in laptops (for which I am currently looking).

Hello everyone!

Postby Rikku » Wed 23 Aug, 2006 5:52 pm

Hello all SillyDog users!

My name's Rikku Matsuki. I'm 22 years old (23 in September, on the 10th). I'm Chief Executive of KJC, and am so proud to be here! Tidus has told me all about you guys, and i'm all too glad to help you all out.

I'm due to take TJ's place in two months time, as SEO, he's retiring from us, and i'm dreading it, but he said it'll be alright, so, i'll stop shaking!

All this news with Dr Lobster has annoyed me. There's one thing i hate, being CEO of a company, and that is dealing with the idiots that try to put us down. I'm a bit more up front than tidus, he's a big softy. I'm your typical Canadian/Japanese girl, kind, caring, courageous, but the Canadian streak comes out in me sometimes, and as TJ'll tell you, it isn't a nice streak when i'm mad! I REALLY get angry at people like him. Just tell me if i go over the top, and i'll soon clam down.

Don't worry, if you're nice to me, you get lots of virtual hugs (*o_o*)

Hey, Riksy! Over here!

Boy i'm glad you finally managed to get here! I was starting to wonder if i was going to be all alone! The SillyDog team are all very nice, and you've got me to look after you in real life too, you're only 20 mins away from me, while i'm at Greg's anyway.

As you've probably noticed, our new forum section is getting along nicely, and i'm sure Ant and the guys and girls here appreciate a bit of lovely female company (believe me, she's LOVELY, aren't you? You're 23 soon, getting on a bit), but you're the nicest person i could hand KJC to, i hope you'l take my place here at SillyDog as KJC forum moderator too.

Anyway guys, in case you were wondering, Rikku does have the same IP as me and Greg, that's because she's part of KJC's domain, nothing's wrong, it's just all traffic from the domain goes out from the domain server, through the single router we're connected to. Rikku connects via VPN (Virtual Private Network)
