Get to know me

Welcome to my Profile, how did you get here? O.o Just kidding ^__^ If you want to find out a few things about me, then please keep reading.

I'll go ahead and say this now: My Username isn't Darien Shields from Sailor Moon!

A bit about me:

I'm currently 22 years old, done with school and living in Louisiana. I should mention, I hate it here @__@ There's nothing entertaining (That I like) here but I've learned to deal with it and have as much fun as I can anyway with what's available ^_^ I'm currently working as a Data Technical Engineer/Phone Repair/Voice Mail Technician which is a fancy way of saying I troubleshoot DSL (Internet service/computers) and Phone/Voice Mail service, and currently in the middle of handling another ISP while our company merges. But it's not all bad working for an ISP, I get to learn a lot about things behind the scenes and I'm always one to learn more one way or another as well help people in any way I can.
------------------------------------------------------

You can always find me in either two places, either in the Questions and Assistance Forum or the Q&A Regular Hangout. I love to help people no matter the issue, but even I have my limits so if you have a Question about anything on Gaia that can be asked in the Questions & Assistance Forum, please ask in the Q&A Forum, not my Comments or Inbox. I tend to lurk other Forums, normally Site Feedback and sometimes Gaia General Discussion, but I literally live on the Q&A

In my spare time, I also update the NPC List as well help update and maintain the Complete List of Moderators. And not so Gaia-related, I'm an Administrator (Not a very good one I'll admit) on a Blog site with another Gaia User and you can also find me on Avaricia from time to time With my wonky work and sleep schedule, you may see me on at odd hours. I work the night shift and sleep during the day, but on my weekends I tend to flip my sleep schedule around so I can enjoy spending the day (and night) with friends.

What not to do, read and understand them:

As mentioned, try not to PM me Questions that can be asked in the Questions & Assistance Forum. As much as I'd like to help you, there's tons of Users that help in there ^^ Making a Thread there ensures it's seen by many Users and when someone helps you, who knows, it could help others having the same question.

~~~ Adding on: If I've answered your Question in the Q&A, that's not an invite to PM me for more help As much as I'd like to help everyone as much as possible, I can't. I'm only one person and my Inbox is only so big. There's an entire Forum where dedicated Users help out. If you want to thank me for helping you, it should go unsaid that I'll say "you're welcome." If you have to thank me for help, you can leave a Comment, that'll mean more to me than sending a PM

Random Friend Requests. If you're sending me a request, then chances are I don't know you and I'm not too keen on adding strangers. I literally have right now 6 pages of random friend requests waiting to be accepted. That should be a hint I'm not one to just accept any and everyone. You're more than welcome to send a request, but just don't expect it to be accepted unless I actually know you, Gaia isn't a popularity contest

Please don't contact me for computer/tech help anymore I try to avoid work at all cost when I'm off so coming to me for tech support doesn't help T___T

Just to make sure you got it: I live in the Q&A, so I tend to answer a lot of Questions. If I answer a Question you've asked, try not to PM me with a response or another Question, stay in the Q&A Forum. It'll make it easier on everyone. That being said, I'm by no means the only User who helps in the Questions and Assistance Forum, there's a lot of Users who spend time helping as well so being patient for someone to help you would be most appreciated by everyone who helps.
