  1. Of all people, I would say I'm probably the biggest IRC junkie in the BT chatroom. I've been using mIRC for almost ten years now. Not only is it a great program, but there are several people (including myself) that are very familiar with it who hang out in the BT chat. We would be more than happy to assist you with any questions you may have about IRC chatting and any chat clients we are familiar with. However, most of us use mIRC, and a few use other chat clients like Trillian and IceChat.

    Also, the Besttechie chatroom is located on the WyldRyde network. In my opinion, this is one of the best chatting networks you will ever find. It has knowledgeable and friendly staff who are willing to help, if they can. The network is stable, and the staff has taken many precautions in order to prevent the possiblity of "bad things" from happening. Rarely will this network "go down" or "get attacked". This network also does not allow spamming or file sharing. Please refrain from doing so on WyldRyde. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reply to this thread.

    We'll be watching for ya!

  2. I know some of you have seen me around and don't exactly think I'm a great person.

    Whoever thinks that just doesn't know you well enough Nic! :D

    Matt

    And Nic,

    Congrats on that degree!!! Seeing as you're a mom who is obviously active in her son's life working on these forums in addition to school, quadruplecongrats!

    Liz

    Thanks Matt, that means a lot. However, there are a few people who wouldn't agree with you. Then again, what do I care? If they don't like me, that's no skin off my back. Their deal to worry about, not mine.

    Liz: Try doing an Associate's degree in two semesters and then turning around and doing a Bachelor's in two semesters. It's been a long road. I am very proud of Jeff and all the work he's done. He's had a lot to deal with and a lot to overcome. It amazes me how much he (and other kids his age) know and what they can do. Makes me feel like I'm standing on the sidelines. Doesn't matter though, they're more successful than I was at their age, which wasn't too long ago. I hope other teens follow in their footsteps, its incredible what they could accomplish.

  3. Hello, hello!

    I see that some people think the boards are slow. There's a few reasons for this.

    1-- It is spring and in some places, the weather has been decent. Many people are on Spring Break, travelling, or simply enjoying the outdoors.

    2-- This board isn't exactly small, but it isn't big either. Sometimes people simply don't have time do be active on the boards. It gets quiet, just like the chatrooms (IRC, etc).

    3-- For those of us who are students (Highschool, College, Universities, etc) it is nearing the end of the traditional school year. Projects and papers are due. The boards tend to take a back burner to education, for most people.

    Jeff has worked very hard on making these boards a great place to visit and I commend him for that. I know some of you have seen me around and don't exactly think I'm a great person. I tend to be the one that does the "dirty work" on the forums and in the chatrooms. That's my job as a moderator on the forums and as an operator in the chatroom. I do what I see is necessary, clean up the messes when I can, and put people in their place when I'm asked to.

    Like many others on the board, I am a student (in college) and this is my graduation semester. Come May 12, I'll have a BBA in HR/Mgmt. I know I'm busy, and I bet a lot of the others are as well.

    Sit tight. Just because it looks like nothing is going on, doesn't mean that's the case. Feel free to start a topic for general discussion. It tends to generate the reaction you're seeking.

  4. honistly does it matter i do have the neer one also

    it will say the same sh*t

    ive checked

    but ok

    and one person could say somthing

    jesus

    crow you

    didnt even

    give the link to the download of

    the new hijack this

    CyberKiLL--

    Yes, it does matter. It is almost always best to use the newest version of any program, including hijackthis. There are good reasons why people update their software and make it available for use by the public. Usually software is updated in order to add new features or fix bugs that were found in older versions.

    Not always will HJT say the same "sh*t" as you put it. Preferrably, you should watch the kind of language you use with people you want to help you. I'm sure the good people of this forum (and any other respectable forum) would be much more willing to assist you if you spoke to them respectfully.

    nic

    ps: You, in addition to a few others, would do well to take some lessons in spelling and grammar, or even just proofread your post before you send it out. People are more willing to listen to you when you at least appear to be intelligent.

    "im going to post a forum for the runner up banners by votes! "

    Dont you think it should be up to B to decide what to do? After all, I do believe these are HIS forums and therefore, he should be the one making the "executive decisions" affecting it. NOT YOU.

    "Each banner will be picked by the person who made it. You need to go ahead and post here "your best banner for the vote" Does everybody get this and think it is a good ideah?"

    Again, these are B's forums. If, in fact, B wants to go ahead with this voting idea that you have, I think that he needs to be the one to decide what the criteria will be in order to determine the winners. If he wants your opinion, I'm sure he'll ask for it. That's how he works. I know for a fact, if he wants MY opinion, he asks me. Sometimes I give it to him anyway, but only in certain cases. In your case though, it looks to me that you're trying to run his boards. I don't appreciate that, and I have a good notion that he doesn't either.

    By the way... people will pay more attention to you and respect your opinion more if you can spell and use proper punctuation. Your words hold more weight when they appear to be intelligent and are used in the correct manner.

  6. Nic do you work here or....

    Do I work here... My answer to that is simply yes and no. Yes, I answer posts when asked, or if I feel they need a reply. Yes, I have given B some advice. No, I do not get paid. And no, I am currently not in any administrative type of position. Simply put, I do what is asked of me and what needs to be done.

  7. What do you mean you left this thread here....Its a great thread and it is not offensive to anyone....

    "out of control it will be removed." What does that mean? How could it...

    Thanks

    I dont know you, and I dont know even if youre old enough to vote or not. It doesnt matter. What does matter though is that you dont realize the trouble that political debates can cause. This thread (though i have not voted and will not vote on here) appears to be comments people are making about presidential candidates. Any one in their right mind knows that people will argue if the wrong thing is said about the candidate they choose. Things can get out of hand. B is simply stating that he does not and will not allow that to happen on his boards. If this isnt enough explanation for you, id be happy to give you a lesson.

  8. I think we need a homepage! And a thing in our control pannels thats says participating topics in the past 30 days and all...something like that..maybe a tips and tricks folder for windows and or something else.... Can we start making tutorials? I dont know this is just a few things I like that I have saw on other sites.

    Thanks for looking all!

    cowsgonemadd3:

    We already have a homepage. You can find it at http://www.besttechie.net

    Also, B has already discussed making a "tips and tricks" forum (remember, he runs this board, not you. Thanks for the suggestion though!)

    Feel free to start working on tutorials. We appreciate all the help we can get. Tutorials that work save a LOT of time when it comes to fixing logs.
