If your computer is giving you grief or that code doesn't work, this is the place to vent off about it. Any other computery discussions are also very welcome

You call this the "geek" forum, but in reality, aren't all of the forums here GEEK forums?? Well, maybe not every, but I'd venture to say that anime, in the US and Canada at least, is a VERY geeky thing... Outside of DBZ and Transformers, anyhow. It's a geeky thing for adults to like because we attatch a kind of devotion that's really misunderstood by outsiders and we're looked at as strange and sometimes immature for our entertainment choice. Hence, anime is a very geeky thing... Manga too. And, not video games anymore (anyone can like games now they are completely socially acceptale) but RPG's on the other hand... Geek Central.

However, it is true some techno-geeks don't like the "good name of 'geek'" being "stained" by anime... But I'd almost say they're not true geeks.

In a lot of places, "geek" refers to someone who knows lots about computers.

Yay--a computer-related section! I was just thinking about suggesting something like it the other day. Having a diploma in PC repair under my belt, I think I'll be posting in here as often as someone (myself not excluded) has technical problems. ^_~

(By the way, I've always been under the impression that a geek is a profession--that is, a clown that bites off chickens' heads. I'm totally serious.)

yay! geek section!

You are correct, MM. A geek was an entertainer quite some time ago who bit the heads off of live chickens. See this deff I got from Websters:

geek (n): see Ozzie Osborne.

Whoa! *does a double take* Please say this section just went it! Or else I guess that means I have been not paying attention.

Postby **Mr. SmartyPants** » Thu Sep 16, 2004 4:58 pm

Postby **Mithrandir** » Sat Oct 09, 2004 8:31 am

The thread was a bit buried in the forum, but is this the thread you are looking for? http://www.christiananime.net/showthread.php?t=50454&highlight=programming

Postby **KupoTony** » Sun Oct 04, 2009 8:15 pm

yes i'll check on it

Postby **KupoTony** » Sun Oct 04, 2009 9:05 pm

thank you,what do you mean a bit buried?

Since that thread had not been updated in a while, other computing threads that had been made after it pushed that particular thread back a few pages in this part of the forum. "Buried" was a figure of speech, because I had to go "dig" it out. ^_^

Postby **KupoTony** » Mon Oct 05, 2009 12:57 pm

how often must i post in it,just asking.

As much as you need/want to update it ^__^

Postby **KupoTony** » Tue Oct 06, 2009 7:07 pm

Lady Tsuku,I'm back.
missed you.

Postby **KupoTony** » Mon Oct 12, 2009 10:58 am

how often must I not post,so I cannot get a warning from the mods,could you give it in time?

Postby **shooraijin** » Tue Oct 13, 2009 6:41 am

I'm not sure what question you're asking. Do you mean what we consider double-posting?

Postby **KupoTony** » Tue Oct 13, 2009 3:23 pm

that's ok.
thanks though.
sorry for doing it again.

Postby **KupoTony** » Sun Oct 18, 2009 8:02 am

Could anyone fill me in on what can I do with DOS on Windows XPs?

sorry mods,but the edit option wasn't there when I wanted to edit it.

Postby **shooraijin** » Sun Oct 18, 2009 8:29 am

I think you should create a separate thread for that question. This one is for general information about the forum itself.
