Hot Deals

I joined to ask what video card I should choose to buy. Back then, it was between a 9600 (non-pro), 9600 Pro, 5600 Ultra or 5700 vanilla. I wanted some info because I knew Doom 3 was gonna be released soon. (Went with 9600P FWIW) Most of my early post were all in the video forum actually.

To find out what this forum does for my boyfriend that I dont and to see into the mind of nerds to better understand him.

[SilentVixen]

my boyfriend showed me the site and I fell in love(with AT of course)!!!

 

[Canai]

I was having trouble with my P5W DH and a brief search netted AT and I needed something to do at school/work so I became addicted.

Read the articles, checked out the forums, asked a question, got a nice answer, discovered OT...

 

[Cruisin1]

I joined cause it was very helpful site on getting aide tech issues. Off Topic grew into a funny place to gather. Now I just go for habit... I'm really dissapointed in what Off Topic has become, and frankly I'm considering finding another forum to waste my time in. The mods in Off Topic are ENTIRELY too politically correct and are an arrogant bunch.... There's a reason its Off Topic... didn't really think there was stuff that was not actually "off topic" in the off topic forum... but whatever.

Dear god, it's been so long. I know I'm one of the few who was acutally a reader of the main site first though.

Not sure if this is a repost, but I searched(not that that means anything) and couldn't find anything.

Because you're here...I have a secret crush on you. :heart:

Oh, and REPOST!!!

I enjoy baring my soul in front of anonymous personalities only to have it ripped to shreds by their sexually frustrated judgementalism.
