The TPU UK Clubhouse

[TheMailMan78]

Like I said....anyone can pass ours. You just need to be able to breath AND STILL people refuse to become a citizen.

 

[cheesy999]

Because we have higher standards or actually your a yank in disguise

Their all really similar questions, i just appear to know more about the Us government and laws then i do the UK ones, i mean who doesn't know who the vice president is, what the emancipation proclamation does, what territory america brought from France in 1803, and what the 1st ten amendments were called (all examples of questions i got right)

Either theirs is dumbed down or your a bit of a tube.

Tube?

Thick, bampot, numpty, moron, plank, spoon, nugget, idiot ect ect...

EDIT: Daft

in that case i think their's is dumbed down

and that reminds me of something i need to reply to

TVs dont make good monitor displays due to the response times among other things. Theres plenty of IPS 23" panels for £150 but they are all LED and 16:9.

1:I've seen TV's with far better response times then a computer monitor
2:I said a 32" IPS pannel for £150
3:The slight colour distortion from LED's is hardly going to affect an average user who probably will not even notice it
4:Good point... still 16:9 is good for movies and gaming

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

evenin, does it feel like friday to anyone else..

 

[MilkyWay]

Response times are better on monitors and its not colour distortion its colour accuracy. Pretty sure RGB LEDs exist but White LEDs are the common ones, white LEDs produce good whites and are low power. In any case bigger isnt always better for a display at a desk is rather have the IPS monitor than any tv.

Dont ever infer im an idiot Mr Dairylea.

evenin, does it feel like friday to anyone else..

Me im about to get a takeaway and usually i always do that on a Friday.

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

Are you sure, i'd prefer a plasma to an IPS any day?

How was i inferring your an idiot?, and how could you compare me to that terrible rubbish that is Dairylee

EDIT:Just took a different US citizenship test and passed again, they must have really low standards

 

[MilkyWay]

Me calling you an idiot reminded you of me somehow.
Nah id still take a proper IPS, you cant get Plasma tvs under 32inch. Plasma tech is not good for monitors since you shouldn't idle them, by that i mean burn in from idling at desktop ect and response times.

EDIT: haha awrite then Double Gloucestershire or a Pecorino Romano? your pick wee man.

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

id fail the uk citizen test probably for piss poor grammar and spellin plus i know and care nowt for the Cabinet looks like play school the houses of Parlayment init

i wouldnt choose a plasma for a pc screen, console maybe but not pc

No, you calling me an idiot reminded me ii'd forgotten to reply to you

My monitor never Idle's although you might get some burn in as the health bar would just stay at 100 permanently

I was thinking mozzarella actually, i want some pizza

 

[kurosagi01]

Lol at me got 9 out of 24 i don't really know lot of those information.

 

[pantherx12]

Does anyone know when ebuyer became awful?

Tried to RMA some headphones that turned up with the left hand side barely working ( sent RMA request as soon as I found out)

And I have to call them to to "proceed to the next stage" or some rubbish, what the hell is going on?

It should simply be a case of I have a DOA product they okay the RMA, or talk to me via email.

Why waste everyones time and patience with calling in?

Not a happy bunny at all, striking ebuyer off my " good to buy from" list.

 

[MilkyWay]

I dunno i thought you where referring me as being an idiot when i said "TVs don't make good monitor displays". Because somehow me calling you an idiot reminded me of the time you thought i was one because i said that.

YES, i have anxiety problems.

 

[cheesy999]

obviously the questions are things that do not matter to people in the UK, lets replace them with things like this

Who is worse at their jobs
a)The post office
b)The Train companies
c)Nick clegg

What should you not watch on TV
a)The news
b)F1
c)The X-factor

The answer to all is C

 

[MightyMission]

i failed the US citizenship test miserably,and i am filled with an refreshingly overpowering sense of inner wellbeing!

they did that to me, don't worry, the number is free to phone and your on there for about 3 minutes in total, all they do is ask you exactly how it's not working, after you've rung them, they'll give you an email, click the link and they'll ask you what day you want someone to visit your house and pick up the Item

How is phoning someone more work then email, i hate email, i want all companies to require me to phone them

YES, i have anxiety problems.

No, i was referring to myself, although not anymore, because i can passed that US citizenship test mailman posted

 

[pantherx12]

I don't have credit ( I also hate the phone)

Also I described the fault in my RMA request ( the left hand side is REALLY quiet) what's not to get?


Also I can type a hell of a lot faster than I can speak.




Unrelated to ebuyer, but do you actually have to do US citizen ship tests to live there?

Glad I don't want to live in the states because I'd fail every time, how is any of that relevant ?

It's more relevent then the UK one, and yes, you get asked 10 questions in an interview, you have to get at least 6 of them right

WHY DO YOU HATE THE PHONE?
i'm terrible at writing, i prefer the phone everytime, but why does your phone need this credit, i just ring people, i get free calls on my contract

 

[MightyMission]

i prefer talking to people over written communication,but thats because my punctuation is terrible and i like inflection and the flow conversations have,those things dont always transpire with text.
or more likely i'm not skilled enough!

one thing i really hate are companies like seagate where you don't even get to tell them what's wrong, just type in a code

clearly never spoke to vodaphone virgin bt etc helplines

everyone (company) should do as EA do, an online chat forum, theirs has helped me nice n easy a few times

 

[MilkyWay]

I got 11 in the UK but i reckon with some research i could do better, i dont know the number of children and youths in the UK for example.

I don't have a contract.

IMO ( each to their own) Contracts are silly

If I do top up every month I'm rewarded with contract like texts and 500MB of Internets, how ever I don't have to if I don't want to or can't afford it.



I hate the phone because I find the lack of body language incredibly frustrating, also I don't have time or patience for fools and fairly often the customer service people I get put onto are bloody idiots

Know nothing about the products their company sells and things like that.


Also in an email I can explain everything in my first contact with a company so they can just read it know what's going down and sort it out.

If they don't then I can easily link to pictures, or hell even make a video and show them that.

With the phone it's just desperately trying to explain something the other person doesn't understand at all.
