**OT sorta....my missing lately....

[Engineer]

Hey everyone....

Just stopped by to say hi to everyone and to explain my missing in action lately....

I've had issues for some time with both work and home that should have been dealt with but were not....The nonstop posting to help in the DSLR race did NOTHING to help these issues....on top of sorta almost burning myself out (on everything)...

I've taken a break on some things and am working to get caught up in others......

While I miss the TeAm very much, I've got to get going or life will get ugly...and nobody wants that.

I want to thank everyone and also give congrats to all those who I have missed...sorry for being late.

Just because I'm doing other things right now...doesn't mean that I don't assimilate when available...i.e. swapped Pentium 100 for P4 2GHz last week

Keep up the good work....I'll be back before you know it with a vengance!

Everyone needs to take care of business, I'm sure we all know what you're going through.


Besides, server response time has been great while you've been on break.

<< Besides, server response time has been great while you've been on break. >>



You really know how to hurt a guy...hehe!

P.S. DSLR still says our forums are boring and that they will overtake us.........you guys want to comment on that! :Q

 

[Crazee]

Engineer do what you need to do to keep things in perspective

Family, work and friends come first without your support network your not goona be of much use to us anyway

And DSLR talks a good game but we already served them a Spaulding Burger last month. I wonder if they regret saying we couldn't keep our focus

 

[Smoke]

They are glitzy ... we are grungy! Who gets the work done?

WHO'S YOUR DADDY!



Take care Robert.

 

[Confused]

Don't worry about it Robert. Although you come here and post this and the forums slow down again

Take care of number 1 (and no, that's not Seti, Ars Technica Lamb Chop and us here, it's YOU in case you were wondering ) and we'll all be here waiting for you to return replenished and catch up on the time lost not being able to nef!

Take care Robert

This from the folks who lost the race by approximately TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND Work Units?!? :Q

I think that says enough right there.. no further comment is necessary.

Who is this Engineer guy?

Take care of your issues Engineer so you can come back. WE all miss you here and over at IRC. Hope things go ok.

They just don't know us vary well do they? Maybe if they spent more time over here they would understand.

take care of yourself engineer... I completely understand the burnt-out thing... I used to be an aop in #nohack on dal.net, a channel that helps people remove virii and trojans and worms from there computers.... one summer I was on there every waking hour helping people... it got very addictive but I got so burntout. you definately deserve a break, don't burn yourself out completely.... spend time with your family (take your kids to the zoo or something )


their forum seems so slow(as in they dont say much)
our forum is clean and utilitarian (only forum I can stand using, kudos to zuni)
theirs is filled with all this other useless crap, its hard to read, and in general very cluttered

 

[Sukhoi]

Please come back when you have time!

 

[ViRGE]

Good to see you drop on by again, Engineer. Take care of yourself, and do whatever you need to keep from getting crushed; we'll understand no matter what.

Robert,
Take care of yourself. I certainly understand, as I've been in the same boat. There are a lot of things demanding my time these days, and the forum has had to take a back seat. Plus I felt the need to take a break.

It's amazing how quickly teammates can fade away. Today is my 1st posting in DC since the 3rd of March.

My main SETI cracker is down at home, P/S going out, so I have to shut it down until I get a replacement. The dual PII400 server is down too, due to overheating issues.

Not sure when I'll be able to post again, later all.

[edit]Fixed post, thanks to eagle eye Smokeball[/edit]

It's tough on us old guys. "3rd of May" ... humph, humph, humph .............

I would have sworn I saw you post more recently than that. :Q Well, it's old age for both of us ... I guess.

MARCH?

Hats off to you Engineer,

You certainly deserve and should take care of biz where needed and put your feet up for a while. Life is too short, a little Less, Less, Less will help you recharge for... well you and everyone certainly knows from there

Take care,


Best regards alwayys
