Why, hello there. =D

May be coming back, who knows? I want to start programming again, and I have a lot of down time with my new job.

Well enough I guess. I got a job at an ISP doing technical support (gag), and I still work at the restraunt.

Me and Brooke broke up though. And I'm now living with my parents, but should be moving out in the next month.

How have things been here?

It sucks that you and brooke broke up :( You guys seemed to be really in love :(.

Things haven't been too bad here - As you can probably tell we've made some massive changes - mainly programming in Python, we have an items database and other mods now too... All going pretty well :)
Personally I got a job as a C# developer at a business travel company which is pretty awesome.

Sorry to hear you and Brooke broke up - that sucks!

We were. But it started feeling like things weren't working out. Then I caught her cheating on me, so..... Yeah.


But the tech support isn't that bad at all, lol. I sit here, reading or watching movies, and when I get a call all I really do is this:
1. Is it plugged in?
2. Make sure it's plugged in.
3. Internet Explorer>File>(untick)Work Offline.
4. Start>Run>CMD>ipconfig release/renew.

That's solves about 90% of the problems we get. So, it really isn't too bad. Just being in the South means I have to talk to a lot of idiots. I swear, if I hear one more person tell me they don't see their start button.... Actually had on lady turn the computer off because "Start button" and "Power button" are the same. :p

But really, I can't complain much. I did become an alcoholic after the break up though.

:( I actually found the source code to the old PERL Score Sender me and sock wrote from raui's VB source. That's what made me think of coming back here, just seeing something that brought back memories of programming, lol.

When I do have to program something I've been doing it in PERL here lately. But I have been thinking about moving to Python. :p

Who wants more useless apps from Cata? Lol.

Haha. It's all C# over here. with me I help out where I can because Python is extremely simple, but I'm a true .NET evangelist at heart.

I'm new here, so I haven't had a chance to meet you before. But welcome back, hopefully things work out best for you.

And not EVERYONE from the south are idiots. :whistling: I personally like to think I'm not an idiot at least, other people might have different opinions about that though :p

Oh, awesome. Bringing back memories of working for Comcast. I love it when people think you're lying about how to fix their internet, but then once they finally take the time to do what you're saying it's fixed.

*raises hand*

I'd say the more the merrier.

And, of course, welcome back

Well, in the small towns I service, ignorance prevails. Sadly, I only know a very few people of any intellect at all. But, once in a while, we are blessed with an intelligent customer.

Oh no, they don't think I'm lying about how to fix it. They want to know how and why I broke it...

Maybe. If you are a good boy. Bring me candy.

Yes small towns down here do tend to have contain large amounts of brain-deads. Then again, the main number of people who call would be calling because they are not intelligent enough to try and solve the issue themselves.

If I bring you candy may I get programs too? :drool:

Figure I might as well of asked. I mean with Halloween being a day away I could persuade my nice neighbors to give me their left over candy and bribe you with it. But I guess that is a no go...:crybaby:


The programs here are awesome. There is no way I can complain. I mean they are free! So I just sit patiently, and I am thankful for the programs I get to use.

This is true. I just love the shininess of a new program... and the beta testing... and the fixing... I've been trying to sneak into programming as well.

Lol. I didn't know I would come back. I just got out of everything for a while. Especially after I left Brooke, I just kind of been drifting. Not really doing much other than work/sleep.

Lol. I'm not looking for a meaningful relationship right now. Just going to try fix my mistakes (like not going to a REAL college).

God damn you hind-sight.

Oh yeah guys, forgot to mention. I shaved all my hair off. :p And lost weight. I assume the weight loss was pretty much from my depression and alcoholism.
