LOL except our clubhouse is MIA over in GN land HAHA

I just threw that out there if it would make people happy but its no big deal to me :)

Lets face it, the US "clubhouse" was only created by TMM as we kicked him out of here when he tried to muscle in lol I mean the last post was in November, in TPU time, that's dead and buried :p

I would hope anything that gets said between a mod and anyone from this clubhouse or any other is and remains a private matter, otherwise might as well move all threads the perpetrator posted in to GN.

Wasn't asking you why. MilkyWay said i was part of the reason, i'm curious.

Pretty sure it was because of what I posted in the comments/feedbackk section. The way I wrote it kind of comes off that way. I just woke up, my point didn't come across clearly.

Thought so. It was a random statement to make and did, inevitably, cause confusion and conflict.

Kk change of theme is needed, I wanna know what music did you inherit from your parents?

My mum and dad grew up in the 60's/early 70's and the songs I grew up listening to and still do now consist of:

Simon and Garfunkel: seriously these guys had some stellar lyrics, The sound of silence has some of the best ever lyrics I have ever heard of any song classic or modern
Chris De Burgh: Spanish Trains, awesome album
Patsy Cline: Very touching, soulful music
Terry Bush: (The littlest hobo them tune) just a lovely song, nuff said :p
Elvis Presley The guy was a genius and was so talented words can't describe, RIP the king!

There are plenty more from that era though these spring to mind and I still regularly listen to and regard as some of the best music I have ever heard. On a different note, over the last few years I have got into Johnny Cash totally independant from my parents, and he was absolutley fantastic, great voice, great style, great talent and great songs.

Special shout out goes to Queen and Freddie Mercury, that guy was awesome, although not totally down to loving him down to my parents as I was an 80's kid and have the joy of remembering him in person (so to speak) he was and still is a legend.

Sorry Eristoff and redbull is kicking in.. lol :toast:

Queen, Beatles, the rollin stones, dire straits, mark knofler are the only real ones that come to mind.

Red Hot Chilli Peppers anyone????

Also anyone still use a dedicated sound card?

£250 headphones, I think so.... :eek: lol

It's a sickness though, cause since purchasing them have purchased 2 amps and also thinking about a better soundcard.

You really don't want to be an audiophile, it's worse than being an PC enthusiast :confused:

You really don't want to be an audiophile, it's worse than being an PC enthusiast :confused:

I have a set of £1500 B&W speakers and a whole load system worth of BOSE shit lying in a storage unit. My dad was an extreme audiophile. I dont have enough space to use that, even my creative stuff is OVERKILL!
My PC on the otherhand is worthless in comparason
:)
Was just wondering if Audigy2 is better than realtek HD audio

Depends on the realtek codec, the Analog sound will probably be slightly better

I was woken up in the middle of the night by a mouse that was chewing or scratching at the wooden planks underneath my floorboards.

I was in a semi-concious deep sleep. at first my brain thought it was rain. but the sound was inconsistant and kept stopping and starting.

then my brain started thinking it sounded like like someone who was typing on a keyboard REALLY LOUDLY - LOUD like one of them old mechanical keyboards you used to get with IBM PCs back in the late 80's or early 90's that run Windows 3.1. and whoever was typing on this keyboard sounded like he was on some sort of 3hr dedline to come up with a 10page essay on partical and sub-atomic physics.

then i started thinking someone was getting some unauthorised uptime on my PC which is totally restricted to my friends & family and i started waking up thinking that i was gonna give whoever it was a serious beat down. then I started wondering how they managed to hack my password and data encryptions. - that didnt make sense and i woke up. room was empty aside from me in it and the mouse directly underneath my floorboards chewing at the wood.

Disaster averted!! nobody had to be executed or harmed for touching my machine!! praise Jesus!!


after that i went back to sleep
