quickbasicguru Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 My only real problem here is avatars; the specs are different.My avatar only would work correctly if I uploaded it here, so I made a new one.Does anyone know how many members have come here after the Tech Support news?

hitest Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 Welcome to Besttechie.net!!It's great to see all of you ex-G4 people here! IMHO this is the most relaxed, friendly forum out in cyber space. Up until today I was a regular poster at G4. Not anymore.Welcome, one and all! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lefty1953 Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 Thanks Chappy, I will be here untill it closes, just like Tech TV and now G4 which closed Tech TV. I still use my old Avatar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mboverload Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 Glad to see you all here. May the good times be ahead of us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Timspo14 Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 umm maybe it's not closing after all... now called Call For Help Quote Link to post Share on other sites
d_leet Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 umm maybe it's not closing after all... now called Call For Help <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Yeah it just changed to call for help a little bit ago, but it's not the same forum becasue most of the regulars are gone now and there's already a thread of porn, and the people here seem much friendlier than at g4 so I may become a regular member here after all.

TymeKyller Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Good to see you all over here on Besttechies forums!!Keep up the great work Jeff!! Looking/doing great!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
goman87 Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Hey, thanks for the welcome! Well, sit back, grab a coffee at the Cafe, and hangout with friends! <-- Loved that line The layout of these forums is waaaay better, especially the Control Panel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blim Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 I'd also like to throw a good hearted welcome out to the fellow refugees. I never joined G4 but lurked there since TTV days and feel like I know many of you.And I also invite you all for that cup of coffee in the cafe, throw a tantrum in the rant forum, talk cars in the gas price talk radio forum and a laugh at the comedy club--or just be random in the random forum! This is one place where Open Chat is for visiting, lots better than the offtopic place over at G4! If anyone has any questions about how BTs works (like adding colors, setting time, avatars), just ask!! You won't get flamed. I didn't--and I'm the queen of the dumb question .Liz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KeithLDick Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 I see quite a few have shown up already, I'm sure more will follow.. hehe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bearskin Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 would really be nice if Pete and some of the other mods stopped here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KeithLDick Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Ya never know bearskin.. But I bet they will drop by atleast to say hi.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blim Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Somewhere around here, Pete C, John Saptya(shoot, how do you spell his last name??) and mlegg said hello. They are here!Liz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
robroy Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 I moved here the day Jeff opened the site. Stopped going back to g4 almost immediately. People here are the best group anywhere on the net. For anyone with computer problems, wanting to compare hardware or just drop in and chat this is the place to become on in and have fun Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KeithLDick Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Somewhere around here, Pete C, John Saptya(shoot, how do you spell his last name??) and mlegg said hello. They are here!Liz<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Pete is still over there posting cause they basically *LIED* to him..

Makai Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Hi everybody. I joined the TTv boards about 2 1/2 years before the merger. I went over to G4's boards, but quit posting after about 3 months. What a mess that place became. I joined here somewhere along the line but never posted till now. This is definitely the tech board to belong to and hopefully this latest G4 fiasco will drive more good traffic to this site. Ironically I've been recommending this site for months yet I only made my first post today lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blim Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Keith, I agree. Pete is loyal. A bad part of being a good guy....Hopefully he'll spend more time here, though. One can hope!Welcome, Makai!! Hope to hear more from you.Liz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Makai Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Welcome, Makai!! Hope to hear more from you.Liz<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Thanks Liz. I'll try not to wait so long before posting again lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
