T-minus 12.5 hours. I am taking the same precautions as I did for Y2K.

One thing I don't like about this forum is that it doesn't track my activity between different computers like another site I use which is on phpBB. On here, if I read one thread on one machine then move to another computer, it won't remember I've read through that thread. But congratulations on the hardware upgrade!

The words "bigger and badder" got me all worked up, Mr Buzz Killington.

Well, on our end it's bigger and badder--way, way more storage space. The tight storage space is what caused that last 502 error. So, you could say that not being knocked offline is pretty killer.

Now, who here likes a good story about a bridge?

Holly crap! I made it though this change. I really didn't know if I had it in me.

Thank you GRM for making me a stronger person........and for allowing me to post stupid E36 M3.

Same stuff delivered faster in the face of increased traffic is good.

BTW: Already heard about the bridge.

Sorry, dude. Couldn't help m'self. Here's a better Zep tune, even though it says nothing about a bridge.

Hey Sultan, you seem nice enough. What's your issue with my recipe thread? Quite a few other GRMers have posted their favorites, but you seem to be making some kind of statement. What's your beef, and furthermore, how do you prepare it?

ecm, I have no beef with beef! The topic seems out of place to me. That said I had no problem posting a question about furniture.......go figure

Out of place... in the Off Topic Forum? The place where there is currently a thread about firefighters in drag and and Ebay ad with the most random assortment of crap one can possibly imagine?

OK.

Making one comment in the original thread is fine, I get it, it's not your cup of tea. But bringing it to another thread on another forum seems like you are trying to create an unwelcoming atmosphere, and that is not what this board is about. This is the most welcoming group of folks you are ever likely to run across on the internet. We accept all types here, and we discuss everything.
