I was attracted to this forum as I saw people with ambition and that were fearless. They wanted to do the best they could with what they had, thus OCing, flashing, tweaking, etc... The vast resources here.
Now is the time that we decide if we are a forum of wannabes or a forum of hardcore OC, willing to risk what we have in exchange for the possibility of a few more FPS. Sharing information to further computer performance and allow for better user experiance. Testing new hardware and giving reports that are unbiased (go ATI) and accurate.
Really if one member is a weight due to the need to be correct at the expence of progress, cut ties and keep moving. This is the job of mods, and the admin. To be sure that progress is made here, and that we are not just wasting time. In the past when other members were banned, no one cared. This isthe same thing, before it became such a big deal if Alec would have left for awhile to lick his wounds or find another place to settle, there would be no problem, but due to his making a big deal over all this and stirring up the waters, we have discussions that move away from our goal of hardware and the like.
Delete it, lock it, forget it.
Do whatever it takes to keep us moving forward.
