Welcome to Gaia! ::

This is ******** up!
No one else here is suffering the Gain avatar anomoly that I've noticed. This has to be either the worst glitch I've seen yet, or the biggest ******** up of a event idea ever concieved. I nearly had a heart attack thinking I was hacked.

That explains the lack of response from Roan, thanks Bard.

@ Kazzi - The cactuar looks more like Gai Sensei!!!!

@ Everyone - Ok. Sorry I havent been on lately guys, allow me to fill you in.
It all started with my keyboard. Suddenly, some of the keys stopped working. Then it started typing by itself, then the pc refused to recognise it, full stop. I have a usb keybard, so I just plugged in a standard one and a standard mouse (my usb mouse plugs into my usb keyboard XD) and carried on. Then the mouse screwed up. It kept leaping all over teh screen in a fit and clicking insecently on things making it nigh on impossible to do anything. In my infinite wisdom (ok, past experiance) I figured the fan on PSU had stopped woring (again) and it was just overheating. So I turned it off for a day or so then tried again. Shock suprise... no difference. SO I took her apart and looked at her insides. Everything is plugged in and working fine. Well, nearly fine. This thing is 6 years old now and worn around the edges. Severely.
Anyway. I buggered about with some virus software (using keyboard only to navigate. Thank-you Windows 3.1 for my early education!), cleaned out my keyboard and I appear to have a functioning computer again. Yay.

In the MEAN time, my parents are on the fritz too. Im angry at both of them right now, so Im going to rant about it here regardless. Basically our house is lovely and all, but its costing more and more every year to stay here so Mum wants to move. She sick of money worries and not going on holiday. My Dad is helping becuase any spare money we get, he spends on his diving and hes NEVER home anymore. What started as a hobby is now an obsession with him. It doesnt help that he spends time up the pub with female friends then drops them home when Mum asks hm to come straight home - she is now convinced he has a girlfriend. A classic example of the crap Im having to deal with right now happened last night. Dad was late home and mum locked him out fo teh house. So like teh matur epeople they are mum sat in the living room in the dark with the lights off, dogs going nuts, while Dad stood outside hammering on the door as loud as he could for OVER AN HOUR. They spent their whole time telling me not to have my music up loud enough to disturb the neighbours, not to be noisy if I come home late etc etc etc and then theyd o that. They are worse than the kids at nursery. In teh end I went downstairs and shouted at both of them and sent them to seperate rooms. How sad is that? I lost alot of respect for my parents recently and Ive just about had enough. Im looking for my own place with Bard but it'll be the end of the year before Ill be able to move out. I dont want to move to Wiltshire with my parents (if they're even still together at that point) so I dont have much choice about finding somewhere. So If im on and off sporadically, you know why. I will do my utmost NOT to be away long though.

Thanks luke. Now my PC works again, I should be on as usual, its just Roan may be even meaner than normal to alleviate my stress xd
Im just fore warning that there may be a future upheavel later this year when I move house and have to get internet re-fitted to thsi thing

I knew things were bad but not that bad sad

Anyway! Bard may have gotten more hours by Easter and we can all move in together! biggrin If not I'll give you a nice birthday present and by nice I mean Dell ninja

Hope you're ok anyway hunny. I don't like sadistic Roany, esp near combat time gonk

AT LEAST YOU STILL SEE BOTH OF THEM !

its ok, i just class my dad as either dead or an a*****e. Ive learned to deal with it over the years.


Can i steal yours ?

He's good at fixing things.

On a lighter note ( C# for all you musicians ) have you found any victims that can please Roan. I hear she's gonna be mean.

Pfft character Roan, real Roan. Like there's a difference xp
