This I did not know..


One question:

is resigned the correct word?
 
I'm only messing around!


Seems like, to be a successfull moderator... you need to spend a lot of time infront of the computer.. on the forum...


not an easy task.. keeping people inline!

well, it's not that you have to spend more time in front of the computer, but you have to spend more time on the forums instead of doing other things. i guess i really just got lazy at some point and eventually decided there was no point in me being a mod, if didn't do the work.
 
Thats what multitasking is for .. and multiple keyboards ...

(Lets get back on topic while we're at it)
 
When we are as old as our grandparents now, will we know as much (nothing :P ) about computers as they do? Well I say computers, but I mean the thing that will replace that, if you get what I mean, something that is for us, what computers and electronis, etc... are for them now? :cool:

I dont think so, most of us will keep up to date with the latest cutting edge technology, it is like a characteristic that we adapt and move with change, and dont resist it.

Interesting question...

The user interface (of whatever equipment) gets more user-friendly (and fool-proof) as times goes by. I bet (almost) nobody from this forum would understand easily how to get to work the first computer ever built. But even a 5 year old kid can play around with modern computers.
It’s like recording a TV-show. Some years ago the user would read tons of instructions before programming a VHS-recorder (and sometimes without success). Now you’re done with a couple of intuitive clicks with a media center computer.
So I think future equipments will be used by even more people (including the old version of us :) ) than computers today.

There seems to be a lot of people who have a specific question and register to post their question or people who sign up and never post.


Then there are others who post a ton in the beginning and then thats it...

Or others who post 44.61 times a day.

Yeah..... I used to post a ton in the beggining when I was about 12 years old. Now I stay with the community, I suppose because I use it more of a way to chat and learn more..... :)

Oh by the way, 44.61? What's that all about?

Just because there's a poll doesnt mean everyone has to vote :P Also, a lot of people just come by, ask a question and leave :)

I think he is referring to Praetor..
