  1. Hello! Welcome to our little forum. I've removed your links because this isn't Gumtree but feel free to start a PPR and put all your shizzle in there.
  2. I'd love to give Holly some of my Oak.
  3. Funny story that. A few years ago I'm given an entire building to look after. It's huge, 5 stories tall and it's right behind Selfridges on Oxford Street, so a fairly high profile building. The former engineer made a mess of loads of things there and generally created a very hostile tension between us and the client. He was punted off of site and I was sent in as the clean up crew. So I get cracking, after about two weeks things are looking good, I've got the emergency lights working, the legionella count is dropping, etc etc. Much commendations, many praise, etc etc. Then one day the power goes out. Entire building, all dead. The building manager comes to me in a huff and all hell breaks loose. Eventually I suss it out and it's down to EDF doing some maintenance on a transformer and blowing a phase. Eventually it's all reset and we're back to normal, but everyone's blaming me. So I get behind my PC and start writing out an email with all the details, explanations, etc etc. I look over it about a hundred times and it looks good (I can't stress how important this email was). Outlook only fucking changed my surname to "Knobbed". My boss saw the humour but I was never seen on that site again.
  4. Haven't played since the original but if I get to chop nazis up with a chainsaw then there's not much the game can do wrong really.
  5. Well he did seem to lose a LOT of muscle as it went on! Still the cage split thing and the chicken on the table thing we're good.
  6. Holy. Fucking. Shit. Now that is talent.
  7. To be fair, I would love a go on one of those chicks. I reckon they go like the clappers. Before Thicke though, they've probably got a menu of "which STI would you like this evening?" next to their unopened box of jonnies.

    PS4 anyone...?

    A gaming PC is much less likely to kill you. It will also make you more fertile, increase your libido, make you more attractive to women, raise your stamina, raise your Alpha Male gene and add a few inches to your joystick. Jus' saying.
  9. Euan, I love you. That is all.
  10. NAUGHTY WEBSITE! //Dunno dude. If it persists let me know, it#s about time I gave Alistair in Bangladesh a good kicking again.

    Gaming Videos

    I use FRAPS for audio and video. Audio I just use my headset, works fine. Editing I do with Sony Vegas but if you want fancy effects and shit, use Adobe Premier and After Effects. These are all available from your *favourite online retailer*. Make sure when you install your video editing software that you follow the instructions and disconnect from the net, or you might get in poo. When I did vlogs, I used my phone, no issues. If you want FRAPS, pm me.
  12. I automatically assume that people who play like that are retarded. It helps me deal with my rage.
  13. That's what I was thinking too. If you think about it, it's nothing more than a hydraulic system with servos and some PC hardware. The problem is I don't have the machinery or space, and I'd need a software genius to code all the drivers for me.
  14. I had that as well. Literally 5 mins on the horn had it fixxored.
  15. I spend a couple of hours now and then camping, and make an absolute killing. I agree however that it can get very frustrating. Blizzards refusal to do anything based on reports is the most annoying thing however, when it's so blatantly obvious.

    I'd stay a mile away dude, it's dead at the moment. I used to mine whatever and convert it to BTC but even the alts are on their arse.
  17. Sweet baby jesus, someone buy me this please. They start at $25k. [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJoi-1g0IzI[media] http://www.force-dynamics.com/401/

    Oh it's definitely going, it's nearing a decade old. I refuse to get rid of the bastard though because it was the drive I had in my first "proper" PC and it's also the last component I have from it. It also marks the era where I went from a kid who lived off hand-me-downs to a self-sufficient adult who is capable of buying the stuff he wants. When it dies I'll turn it into a storage box or something. Until then, rock'n'roll. And scratch. And... stuff.
  19. Meh. Let them rob me. I've got about 50p for them. Nobody seems to care anyway.

    I think imma take it to work again tonight. Friday nights are always dead anyway. I'll have to see how much space I've got, but if it's enough I'll pack the 7950 as well. I'll try download rift. Not sure how long it'll take but it's worth a shot. And for the drive I meant bad. It's so slow compared to an ssd, and that scratchy noise is enough to drive anyone up the wall.

    Right so I finally managed to test it out a bit, albeit only with WoW, and out in the open I was getting average 70FPS, peaking to over 100, and here's the clincher: I had everything set to Ultra. Obviously WoW is very easy going on GPUs but I'm still amazed that it did so well. This means I could raid with it quite easily. Excellent, and a good start. I've got the system at home now so I'll assemble it at some point soon and give BF4 a run, see if that helps at all. On a side note, going back to a mechanical hard drive is just.... wow.
  22. Yeah, if you've been playing recently I'd say skip it, but if you've been away for a bit then it's actually quite fun.
  23. I wish that Battlelog had an ignore feature so you could simply remove some servers from the search results.
  24. Dude, search for "scan" in the filters. They're the guys from hardware emporium scan.co.uk and run their servers tighter than a duck's arsehole. You also start building up some familiarity with names which makes it even more fun.
