A Long Ramble...

Post by VagueSimplicity »

Well, my name is Shane, and in all honesty I didn't think I'd be joining a forum tonight. Usually if I join one, it's because I'm looking for it, but this time it was because I was trying to find a solution to a (luxury) computer program problem I was having, which I think I'm going to post for help after this one. Aside from that, another tidbit I think one should learn about me is that I tend to leave forums gradually without even knowing it. For example, the last forum I was registered to, I thought to myself "This place is so go great. I know that there's something about this place that won't make me quit this time." Then school came, I lost time for it, and the topics on the site declined into boring facts (it was over a game series; particularly Final Fantasy), so altogether I realized I had quit and haven't been on since about September (though I did try to revisit it this month). At this moment, I can tell I'm of out place and routine as I tend to begin writing on forum(s) in the Summer, but ya, now that we've crossed over that bridge...

-I'm 15, almost 16
-I'm male
-I found this forum through Google searching "computer automatically turn itself off"
-My system is an AMD Athlon X2 Dual Core Processor BE-2400, I have 2.00 GB RAM, and a 32-bit Windows Vista Business OS
-I know this may sound noobish, but I don't know what the big deal is between Intel and AMD
-I'm mostly a console/handheld gamer (as well as competitive/perfectionist gamer); computer games cramp my arms and hands, so I don't play them (except for The Sims 2)
-Seeing as I had to look up what an overclocker is, I'm going to say "no, I am not one", but I suppose my brother is... lol
-Obviously, by now, you can see I am using the sample questions to help introduce myself... idk why, but I felt the need to state that. lol

Get out while you can! I came here in 2007 for video card reviews and haven't been able to get away!

You will find this place is very different than most forums... We all get along! Welcome!
