Well, I just found out that the new project I'm moving to at work has some sort of filter that won't allow Gamebanshee through so I'm not going to be able to post like crazy at work anymore.
I will still come on. Plenty to moderate for sure. I'll be here to post some too, just not the 10 hour spam sprees that I'm used to. I'm going to try to get my computer fixed tomorrow and get a better internet connection at home so things may not be so bad, but posting will reduce.
I just wanted to let everyone know that tomorrow is my last day of this job and wednesday is the first of the next job. It's been amazing having everyone here. I'll still keep in touch with everyone that I keep in touch with now and anyone that wants to email me can at jopperm2@gmail.com.

Really sorry to hear that Jopp
I hope at the very least that the new job will be both more challenging and more interesting.
Take care of yourself out there

We'll miss your spamming sprees, sorry to hear that you won't be able to post as much. But life consists of choices, and if the new job's better than your current one even GB shouldn't hold you back

Oh, this is bad, now who am I going to have semi-innapropriate discussions with during the afternoon?!
Good luck with the new job/computer/spam withdrawls.

Thanks guys.  I'll still be on. Probably every day. I just won't be able to post as much nonsense or read every post on the half dozed forums here I read daily.  I'll still be a major lurker though.

The answer is simple. Get that home pc fixed, then lurk! you can be more selective when they think you have left!
Good luck with the new project!

LOL! Thanks for the advice and wishes! I have a guy that will fix my PC for me as soon as I get around to bringing it to him. Tomorrow is my last chance though, he's getting canned when this project goes.  Sucks too, he was cool. He had too many absenses though and he was always wasted on the job. I don't think management knows that one though.
I could do it, but I don't have the software to put on it.  He's going to add some RAM and a new network card too.

Management never knew I was wasted on the job at my last one. They didn't know what the word "manager" meant either though so it didn't surprise me. If I reeked of booze, well I worked midnight to 8am selling food to drunk people. The whole department did!
I actually did better work than anyone else aside from the owner that was there too, drunk or not.  Wouldn't listen to me on how to changed the place, thought I was an "uppity kid". Well, now they have a "Now hiring" sign every three weeks or so, and can't even move soda before it expires there! HA.

Oh, and don't worry - we'll take care of manning Brynn's bathroom for you
