    8) I am Blatant 8) [​IMG]

    Technichally speaking : I am a career computer programmer, lead developer, web developer, XHTML specialist, MS Office Specialist, and Web 2.0 enthusiast.

    Gamer speaking : I am an avid gamer and gaming scene enthusiast. I am a Playstation fan and PS3/2/1 Owner, also I chose to do my most 'advanced' gaming on PC (As I'm rocking a quad core, water cooled dual SLI card rig). have access to numerous XBOX360s, numerous NDS's, Wii's, and various Retro consoles! (Recently I dug out my old Amiga 1200! and my sisterws old Game Gear!!!). While I dont own a DS myself I advise many owners, especailly on Rom'esque matters.

    Personally speaking : I am an avid computer enthusiast, with interests in modding and homebrew. Musically I grew up with 90's popular, graduating to mixing Techno and Trance, and finally running a massive Drun n Bass Soundsystem.

    Loving Romulation, your extensive database, and the forums populated by an army of the kindest, funniest (R4 haters I'm lookin at you ;) ), and most helpful members. Hoping to give something back for the knowledge you have gleaned me :)

    Nice to meet you, one and all
    Blatant

    hahaha, yea, just a bit Ace :) Still don't stop them from giving me the run around, crashing on me when I fail to save for an hour or BSOD'in me in the middle of a delicate build! lol

    Honestly, I specialise in MS technology and programming, and its the scurge of my life! LOL

    An old addage about knowledge and wisdom springs to mind: "All the Knowledge in the World is of no use to Fools", and some days these computa-me-bobs dont half make me look foolish!!! :D

    You spelt his name wrong... ::)
    Welcome to the forums Blatent.
    Hope you have a great time here. :)

    Question: did you have caps lock on, when you typed in your username, on purpose or by accident?

    ROFL, I do beleive you spelt my name wrong too, snebbers !!!! :D lololol

    It was a Caps Lock Accident actually, but I don't mind, it looks kinda.... acceptable to me.... (Plus "Blatant" in proper case is normally taken anyway) didn't wanna open multiple accounts as that'd be against your T's&C's I'd expect...

    Thanks for the kind welcome everyone! :)

    Awww, we all get them days mate :) Rely on Karma, which says the tolls you pay today will return as reward tomorrow!

    No prob with spelling mistake tho! Just found it ammusing :) I normally respond to "Oi! You!" anyway :D

    Whats "gone to pot" today my friend?? A problem shared....

    Is a problem halved, I know.

    I don't have any problems, just the case that everyone today seems to think there is something wrong with me and to be honest it's getting on my nerves and becoming a problem. Not my problem that I wish to be left alone in a corner with internet access.

    Nice Avatar by the way.

    Ahhh, well, that the problem with the cloud isn't it... no corners...

    (I shall leave you to your inter-supa-webby-highwayness in peace now :) )

    Thx for the Avatar comment :) Been using it a few years now (even have an Xmas version with the green flame guy wearing a santa hat! lol) I do like it, nice to find a forum that allows animated gif's :)

    btw, your avatar's got a nice dark twist to it too ;) +1 from me :)

    Thanks it is from the anime Hellsing. :p

    I don't mind talking on the internet, just the point of people "what's up?" every 5 seconds, in real life. Besides I'm sat in ICT with two macs at my disposal. Running virtual box on one of them so I can use Romulation more effectively as the filter on the colleges server blocks some of the content on the page and thus making the whole page inaccessable.

    Welcome, and Enjoy the forum.

    Snebby, Romulation was blocked by our collage too.

    Aww that sucks Mega.. I've gone off topic...

    Anyways enjoy the forums Blatant (least I spelt it right this time).
    I like the tone or the way you type things already, it's interesting.
    Take Care. :)

    +1 on the spelling :)

    Just out of interest, has anyone tried to web-proxy romulation??? Normally the easiest way out of a restrictive collage net....

    I have tried to do that, but most proxies are blocked.. If I use Firefox I have to run through the proxy of EMBC, which means I have to go into settings and put EMBC as the default for the college. It's just a case of finding a proxy that isn't blocked by the EMBC...

    On the other hand, while I am at home, I sometimes route my IP through other countries just for fun.
