It's been a good six months on this website, and I've learned a lot. I just can't believe I hit 950 posts!


My first post;
http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic52999.html

To think, I went from not knowing the difference of a 6200 vs. 9600XT to buying a new video card and making sure that the memory interface was at least 256-Bit and the frequencies were beating all of the other competitors, along with picking out a cpu by looking at it's l1 and l2 cache and not it's name (Pentium vs. Athlon) for my newer built computer. I had never heard of Athlon when I started hear to now owning and bowing down to one. I still have a lot to learn to become "one of you addicts", but I try to help as much as I can. You know, I actually thought the celeron d would be good when I built my first computer (half built) :P!

Congratulations! Cheers! Excellent job, cfitzarl.
btw, how many posts do you need to become a TechSpot enthusiast or booster (whichever comes next for me)? Where is the page that says all that stuff? (im not quite at 950 yet ;))

Thanks man!

The race is on!!!

Ok... The Race is ON!!! :D

Congrats, Cfitzarl. I was glad just to get the newbie halo off my head. My ol' lady will shoot me if I'm on my machine enough to reach your status.:haha:
It also amazes me that Mictlantecuhtli is always homed in on the posts and ready to pounce.:rolleyes:Very OMINOUS:suspiciou

It takes years of practice, maybe you'll get it one day.

One can only hope.;)

You mean you can learn your mod ESP? I thought you were just born with it!

I post the same thing about 10000 times a second ;)

I was glad just to get the newbie halo off my head.

Me too... and I'd better get posting if I want to get into the range of Addict, Paladin, etc! The funny part is that it took me a full two years to get over 50 posts. Now that I'm done traveling for a while and things are getting a bit more settled-down, I can focus on joining the proud ranks of the uber-posters... :)

But enough about me. Thanks for your contributions to these forums, Cfitzarl. Your posts have certainly reflected that as you've gained knowledge, you haven't hesitated to use it to help others expand their own confidence with technology. Well done, sir!

Thanks MarcFOnline, just like you, my hope is to someday be a Techspot Paladin, although I don't quite qualify yet, and even if I did, my lack of "incredible" knowledge with computers would bog me down the list of candidates.

Hey, this is finally my 951st post! :)

Congrats mate.

keep up the good work.

Regards Howard :)

thanks. I still have a ways to go to hit 18,217 though :D

yeah... I'm still an addict also..... oh well.... :( *sniff * hahahahahaha

Come again?

I find myself logging into techspot.com more and more often now; up to 10+ times a day!

I just can't help it ...

I guess when you think about it I could be a called an addict. I don't post too much because people usually get there first with a better reply then I could have come up with ;).

congrats. I went from that same road and on my way to the same destination

For me, it's just fun. I like being on BBSes (wow, I'm giving my age away here...)

In any case, I enjoy it. In Iraq there's little free time except to surf the net, do school, or go to the gym. Of which I do all.

i am a newcomer but aspire to be an paladin or atleast a member

Yeah, this doesn't totally say whether or not you are an addict. cuz I see tons of other people posting too.

Yeah, same here. I think I might change my home page to TS :)

If it wasn't for techspot I would have hate Computers. :)

My homepage has been TS since the day I joined. I'm finally an addict too! One thing I wish would happen though, the blue and white colors of the forums are really getting stale... I wish we could change them.

ain't my homepage because I'm also a news junkie and science junkie, but I do visit techspot several times a day.
The only thing I love more than techspot is astronomy.

Cool MetalX, actually my home page is Gmail; I check that, see whether or not there are replies to my subscribed pages, then go to TS ;)

Nothing is going to change my Firefox-Google start page ... best hands down (in my eyes)!

yeah... I'm still an addict also..... oh well.... :( *sniff * hahahahahaha

Well, you're now an Evangelist :)

hey guys! thanks for the promotion! :) *sniff*... I don't know what to say.... don't appalause just send $ hahahaha!

You guys make it all the more fun!

Now THAT's funny Tedster. I don't think I've ever seen that particular title before...at least on these boards. Somebody's got a sense of humor.....or they know more than we know. :haha:

Wow, I never thought my addict thread would become active again ;) .... and yes...guru is nice as well :grinthumb ! I want Evangelist :D !

New positions? That's awesome guys! Though I haven't a clue what a evangelist or a guru is, it sounds awesome and so... customized... If you know what I'm saying :knock: . Well, great job!

spread the word! spread the word! amen brother! hallalujah! (and pass the collection plate!)
hahahahaahahaha :P

Go tedster :D haha.
