    Exclamation Sorry I was/will be offline...pc problem...

    Hey everyone, sorry I was offline for a while. My desk where my PC sits on crashed, and it broke my CD reader and my hard drive. Now I need to go but a new CD reader, and a 500 GB Hard Drive. I am writing from a good friend's laptop, and this will be my last post for a while, see ya.

    Hunh. I've heard of a system crash and a hard drive crash, but this is probably the first I have heard of a desk crash.

    So I'm the only one who thinks that Battalion is NoteMe in disguise?

    Delete it. They just clutter threads anyway.

    I am so distraught I can't stop smiling.

    LOOK AT WHAT YOU DONE!!!

    But in all honesty, if it were a gaming forum, we would be seeing the word "***" (another way of saying this word is cigarette... hint) far more frequently.

    Oh, I say; I once played cod4 on the xbox live with teamspeak on with some friends...
    They say halo is even worse...

    I don't own an xbox so I thought that as pretty unusual...
    cod4 multiplayer is so much more peaceful on the pc.

    Hey everyone, i am back! I brought my PC to Geek Squad, and they said that the CD Reader was fine, but the hard drive wasn't. So i bought a new 325 GB Hard Drive, hooked it up (by myself) installed vista again (by myself) and the device drivers (by myself ) and now i am here.

    You're in Cambodia, despite my warnings, and so you ARE paying more.

    Whenever you're driving your desk you should be more careful. To avoid desk crashes you need to drive your desk defensively.
