W1zzard obviously

the fact that w1zzard would be wearing me aka 'inside me' long enough to leave holes, just makes my mind break.

Maybe he meant "old pair of genes". lol

@Ketxxx : Are you ever going to pick a title?

I dunno.. "eligible for custom title" is pretty unique as a custom title

h3llb3nd4 · May 4, 2009

there's like 3 of you not changing titles

kyle2020 · May 4, 2009

The name is similar.. but thats where the similarities end! With so many members theres naturally lots of newcomers, so this club is for the "old folks" of TPU where we can get nostalgic over age old threads here at TPU and hardware "long forgotten", as well as just generally being somewhere for more "senior" members to hang out.

Heres how the "old folks" club works:

- You need to of been a member of TPU for at least 2 years
OR
- Have over 5000 posts

Thats it!

Lol, no it actually stands for.........

kyle2020 · May 5, 2009

+1 tatty, a big sweaty +1.

n-ster · May 5, 2009

nonono.... best quality with most quantity wins over all

That's what I'm all about... I remember in one thread, every post I did took me at least 20 mins to do (research, looking for deals, reviews etc)... ended up 2-3 straight hours in that thread helping

Black Panther · May 5, 2009

What an awesome idea for a club!!!

:eek:

Never realised it's been a whole 2 years until I saw this thread and checked out myself... How time flies...

I found my first post. I had lurked on the forum till June before posting (reason being I wanted to post my OC results

...)

I owe you a lot dudes, especially those I who replied to my first post (thread)...
if it weren't for your kind replies I wouldn't be here or on generalnonsense.net today.

BIG CHEERS to the guys who replied my first post:

DrunkenMafia, hv43082, DOM, SilentAces (banned), FatForester, WarEagleAU, Sasqui, newtekie1, infrared, bigboi86, Paulieg, theonetruewill, hat, ex_reven and Ketxxx.

And also for ALL TPU members for ---

1) Making me feel at home and welcome in the community.

2) For helping me have confidence - I know (even today let alone in 2007) that while I can't boast of having studied or of being experienced, most TPU members studied hard earning qualifications and obtaining tech-jobs or have years of hands-on experience on these subjects.
In spite of this, I never ever got any proud, belittling, discouraging, mean or otherwise 'pwn3d' replies whatsoever even where, upon re-reading my own posts weeks or months later, I myself saw my own very obvious ignorance shining through and inviting ridicule! :eek:

Guys, y'all helped me be confident enough to not only to register and start posting but also to remain an active member.
I'm grateful to everyone for giving me the opportunity not only to post and share, but also for taking their time to teach me with their informative replies.
I can say that 98% of what I know on computer hardware, software and networking - I owe it to TPU.

3) You made me realise that there does exist a sane (lol

) community of people -TPU- for whom one or more of the following:
- buying what's otherwise classified as 'overpowered' hardware;
- making what's otherwise considered either an unnecessary or irrational expense;
- overclocking not to get needed performance but just for the heck of it;
- overclocking new or expensive hardware and risk killing it in due course;
.... are not only tolerated but are encouraged and supported as being "the better, the faster and the more record-breaking the merrier"!
