  1. Hi CabDad, and WELCOME BACK!! Its great to see you back in shape and posting once more. I lost your email addy somehow during my last reinstall, otherwise I would have stayed in contact, but it sure is good to see you on the road to recovery! I wonder what the problem was with your ISP...glad you guys got it sorted out. Looking forward to seeing you around the boards!

    Hello All

    Welcome Aboard IceFlyer! Long time, CFH days I believe... Enjoy our new hangout here, and revel in the number of X-TTV folk who we were able to save from the clutches of the evil G4 Giant Vomit Bucket.
  3. I'm going to move this one into Open Chat for you Dan. I really wish I could post at G4 ONLY to say Hi to my buddy CabDad, and wish him the Best as he recovers.
  4. Ah....one of my oldest TTV friends.... HAPPY B-DAY PRESTON!!!! I'll be whipping you off an email here tomorrow, I'm beat right now my friend....say Hi and big hug to Sherri for me!

    The Full Story

    No, not the way the list was released, thats why most of us think that this Tech Support renamed as CFH, is just backpeddaling to save face by G4 Admin, and make me look like a fool. This is a snip from that release, see for yourself where it says "Ditto" right after one thats "redundant - killed" Pretty self-explanatory...
  6. Good Evening everyone! Well, its been quite a few days lately eh... This has been quite stressful for all of us, we all know of what I speak of here, and especially stressful for me, since it was my suicide that started this whole affair. I still stand behind my reasons, that it was in the members of Tech Support boards best interests to know what was happening, and they didn't deserve the surprise they were about to recieve. Anyway, thats over with now and we have a bunch of new members that we are very happy to have here!! With that tho, there is something I wish to point out to all of the B
  7. Where TROLLS are concerned I'm always available to members of this board, and if I'm not online, or am online but busy and not responding...my email is available to all and using the board email will also get to me. I will not tolerate Trolls at this community, unlike they were at G4, we have a reputation here that I will defend till the death!! We ARE the friendliest place on the WWW to come to and get help or just to chat, and I intend to keep it that way. That said, so far, everyone who has migrated over since my suicide post, has been very well behaved, and are fitting in quite nicely. Als
  8. I'm gonna move this into Open Chat.
  9. I'm finally getting around to moving this thread to where it should be, in Open Chat. I've just been so busy, and so tired these last few days, I forgot all about it really. Well, here goes, and a link will be left here for it.
  10. we do?...lol...cool, can I be segregated to the part of the forum with the least G4 related threads? quickbasicguru: I'm sure Jeff could give a more accurate number but I watched it go from about 580 to its current 651 in about 11 hours <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 99 new members since the "Event"...
  11. I did post an explanation to that in another thread, but I'll explain it once more here. I was banned by MissFae well after I had resigned as a Mod at G4, and I never did post the entire contents of that "private thread" to the board, I only posted a small snippet of it. Basically the part that said Tech board was being killed. I PM'd others the entire thread and they posted it instead... Anyway, you are supposed to post a thread in the private Maintenance board at G4 anytime you ban someone, and give the reasons, the length of ban, and the account info of the member being banned. I was curiou
  12. I found that a minimum of 15G should be used for XP, once you get a years worth of programs and things installed on it, the space gets used up fast. I keep everything outside of the OS that I can, in different partitions, and with this last install I resized my XP partition to 20G.
  13. Hi Pete Well, I've been perma-banned from G4, so I guess I'll never go back, not that I was going to anyway after the way they handled that. Pete, you were de-modded?? WTF! What's up with that, what did you do to deserve that?
  14. Wayne, that wasn't a post from Missfae, that was from Chickeytown, the board's top admin, informing the rest of us what was about to happen. I posted part of it first and got banned, then posted the entire thing here and got others banned by having them copy it....oops. I now have a funny feeling that G4 may try to pull some sort of Legal action against me for this, time will tell.
  15. They just don't know when to leave well enough alone do they. They finally had the hullabaloo from the merger calm down and then they pull this stunt....idiots if you ask me.

    The Full Story

    Thanx to you all for your confidence in me, I appreciate it more than you'll ever know. Those of you who have known me from way back in the early TTV days, know that I'm not one to jump to conclusions, or fly off the handle. I'm a measured, steady person who rarely, if ever, (never really) loses it in these threads. I moderate fairly and would rather talk a member into changing their ways calmly thru PM, rather than "ban first - ask questions later" style of modding that G4 practices. I only banned 1 person at G4 in my entire year + there, the rest I was able to talk into doing things the way
  17. LOL They must be really pissed at me for releasing that info! Tough ****!! They deserve everything thats been said about them, they did it to themselves. I was banned for life for posting that, so I beat you by....oh, lets see now...maybe 40 years or more.
  18. I'll just copy my other post over here... Actually, I think its a JOKE and a disgrace to the true CFH! All that G4 did was realize that they made a HUGE mistake in closing the Tech Support board, and in a vain attempt to save members from leaving, they renamed it Call For Help....gimme a break!! I personally think that G4 raped TTV for all it could get, mainly membership, then they tried to strip the last vestiges of TTV from G4 by closing Tech board. After realizing their error in thinking, they're trying desperate measures to retain as many folks as they can by renaming the board instead of

    Tech Support Is Up

    What a joke really... They realized they made a HUGE mistake in closing the Tech Support forum, and quickly changed gears. They figured by changing the name to an old TTV name they may save some members from migrating to other boards...too little too late in my books.

    Frame Design

    Thanx again for the input folks! I'm playing around with different color schemes somewhat, and I'll post some new ideas later maybe. I like the style of the frame itself, and it came to me rather easily really...surprising. Now all I have to do is to figure out how to code it so it looks that way...
  22. Good morning everyone, I'm still very tired as I was up very late last nite with all this junk, but here is the entire story as it happened and with proof of concept. MissFae at G4 said I did not have the Full Story, or how she put it was the "facts", well to start off, here is the ENTIRE post we recieved in the private Maintenance board at G4 about the new changes. Note how it says effective probably in the afternoon....I missed that part in my first read, so I;m sorry for so many people staying up late to be "The Last Man Standing" Now, I felt that this was a terrible injustice to the membe
  23. I was banned from G4TV for telling the truth....go figure eh. Missfae banned me after I reopened a locked post to respond to her allegations that I jumped the gun on the closures. I didn't and posted the post from our Mod board to prove it, I guess she didn't like to be shown up. Well, it doesn't matter much, I won't be over there any more after this anyway.
