FireKnife Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Very tempting. I just happen to have £2000 in my savings account and £1000 in my regular account for place rent so it would be good to find a place and job in networking or similar. 'FireKnife' Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 I can get 100 Meg and TiVo, Virgin is awesome. I have a home network with a NAS box containing all the James Bond films and a load of filth. I also have a 10' x 13' shed that you can fill up with guns. I am within 20 minutes drive (my driving) of 2 FCS urban sites in Kent. Plus I am a 20 minute walk from Strood train station which will shoot you direct into the black heart of our nation's crapital. Downside is that the spare room (and indeed the whole house) has no carpets, paint, tiles or other finishing touches. That and my mrs would expect you to stay in your room at all times and not make eye contact. Link to post Share on other sites

shmook Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 100 meg? Jesus... My last house in the country peakek at 1.9, and my new place in a small town I thought was all whizzy at 5.5... Don't let fireknife near those lines, imagine the amount of grot he will get his mitts on! As for heartburn, go formprescription omeprazole, it's stops it completely!

amateurstuntman Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 I speed tested my 50 Meg and it came in at 51.2 Meg. So Virgin were accidentally giving me more than what I paid for my almost as much as you were paying for. Not only that but I can also get on the internet via the broadband of 3 of my neighbours so I can set my BT client to use the full bandwidth and browse on theirs so I'm not slowing anything down.

Hedganian Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Virgin Broadband often delivers slightly more than the speed on the tin. I was getting 33M on my 30M the other day... Link to post Share on other sites
White_Rabbit Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 if any arnies member is thinking of moving over to virgin I can get an awesome friends and family deal, sadly it doesn't work for exsisting customers :-( but I can get you 50 off your bill if you recomend a friend and they connect And yeah you will get a little more than you pay for sometimes, its to do with tjhe way the modems register on the UBR Link to post Share on other sites

Habakure Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Sad little *beep*... Whoever it is... Thanks, Spets and Rabbit... Its trap time. If it happens in every thread you post in, make a note wo is active in it, then see if you get a neg rep whilst they are active in it. I think you should be able to view who has rep'd you, be it minus or neg, as with the old scoring system (if my memory serves me right)you could see who had rep'd you.

Hedganian Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 But you can rep a post at any time after its creation. Hours, days, weeks, months, years even. Link to post Share on other sites

Hedganian Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Yeah, I know it doesn't really matter. I don't really notice unless people point it out like has happened here. Someone or several someones obviously have an issue but not enough balls to come out and say anything. That's fine - we all know who the bigger man here is, don't we?

danielsilva Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Two rants today, first the AI GasCan ... the damn fill valve broke after just one fill The thing is very convenient but now is just a £35 paper weight And the brand of propane that i started to use smells like farts, really bad smelling farts Link to post Share on other sites
shmook Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 That's what you get when you live in the middle of nowhere. For mocking my rural habitation, I shall -1 you, ha!* Slow interwebs aside, it's ace. I don't really need mega high speed web, I only really surf, don't download much at all. And to compensate, I get to play with all sorts of cool real steel guns on friends land only a couple of minutes away, including my new shiny and awesome semi-automatic shotgun! *only kidding, it ain't me Link to post Share on other sites
boomheadshot (infidel) Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 My rant, STUPID BLOODY COMPUTER RAPING TORJAN VIRUSES!!!!!!!!!! GET A LIFE AND STOP MAKING PROGRAMS TO *fruitcage* UP OTHERS COMPUTERS!!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
FireKnife Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Do a System Restore back by about 2-3 days and it should clear up nicely. For once something Microsoft does actually works well I get about 1-2 a month but as i have no anti-virus (i am studying networking, i know what to do with 99% of them) all i do is put the machine is Safe Mode, if they don't clear after a rummage around a quick System Restore does the job. Saves me £££s each year as the way i look at it 90% of viruses can be gotten rid of in a few minutes on your own, the remaining 10% are new / so powerful that they will *fruitcage* up the anti-virus too so why bother.

Okay, maybe it was mocking. But in a *friendly* way... I'd quite like to live out in the country - nice and quiet - as long as it wasn't *TOO* far from a town if I wanted anything that you get in towns. Although, to be honest, since I rarely if ever use most of the "advantages" of living in one of the largest cities in the UK, I doubt I'd miss much if I wasn't here... On the -1 thing - it'll be interesting to see how many I get when I'm not even here.... Link to post Share on other sites
