I read the rules, it says to post in here first, so here I am, third post, but close enough yeah? I am a long time member of many places, been around for decades, am always a watcher but rarely post. I as of late, want to post more, to keep everyone safe and updated on what I experience and what may help others along their way. I will do my best to offer my side of the coin on what I've experienced thus far and keep this thing going =) Thanks for this forum and all who participate!
Thank u, tekno. Welcome aboard. May u find all u need.

Am so glad u will be participating more.

You have much to share.
Thanks guys/gals.. One thing I have to ask, as on some boards, people use the name swim, ect haha and I didn't know if you had any practices like that on here or are people just supposed to be a little reserved with common sense?? I figured the latter, but thought I'd ask.

Hi TeknoFunk.

I suppose those acronyms are used and more important is to not post things that can be targeted in search engines so speaking in a cryptic manner on specifics is the thing encouraged here.

Make sense?

If not by others also please someone post a better or more full explanation.

We could then maybe make up a sticky out of the answers and use it in the welcome thread.
Just thinking ...hmmm

Also since I missed this I do believe ,

Welcome to the forum, TeknoFunk .  Smile 

Im sure by now you are finding your way around pretty good.
Hello and welcome, TeknoFunk.  Glad you are here...Smile
I said swim last month because i come under such scrutiny. what i say is often posted at other forums to mock me. so i said Swim. It is legally meaningless but it amused me that day.

But you will note that we senior and pioneer members and staff speak in a cryptic fashion. You will figure out what it all means. The rest we reserve for private messages.

It is so brutal out there now. The worst I had seen in about a quarter of a century. But I see the quality vendors work long and hard to solve problems should they arise.

we also abbreviate. say g00gle like that. Just be cautious because if u post a query asking for heart meds for example, it will show up in g00gle.

So, save the important info for private messages. and soon u will be talking as cryptically as we all do.

I remember you. And I have been reading your posts. You fit in well.

Oh that weasel linville just said the similar thing only in fewer words. Read his post above.

Just as long as u don't come out with fisticuffs at another member or the staff, we give u some time to become acclimated to our rules. And strange way of speaking. muahhhh.
