    Freindly forum..

    Hi, just descovered this forum a couple of weeks ago and i'm pretty impressed with it. I hung out in overclockers forum for a few months but have really got to dislike it, the mods and high post counters seem to be a bit arrogant. Any way this seems a better place to hang out and is more freindly.

    There you go you can laugh and point at the n00b

    Nah, lets be honest, being scared of Zak is a GOOD thing... abit like those government info films with Charlie the cat....

    Still, other than doing our bit for care in the community with Zak, this place is cool....

    ps. Little tip for you... just like on the bus, don't make eye contact with him and he'll leave you alone.

    Following on from the Zak comments, I was v.impressed 6,400+ posts he'd managed to accumulate...in 12 months...

    quick calculation later (and yes, I do have too much time on my hands), let's say he get's up around midday and goes to sleep around 2am (a true Hexite if ever there was one), that's 14 hours times 365 days, giving 5110. Divide number of posts by number of hours, and looks like Zak posts 1.25 posts per hour, every hour, of every day....

    In conclusion, you don't need to be scared of Zak, because he's obviously some kind of 'puter gimp, chained to his rig, salivating over the thought of his next contribution...

    All Hail Zak, for having a lifestyle we mere mortals can only dream of...
