    ...sort of ;)

    Hey, my name's Chris. 18 year old in Wales, UK. Studying IT at college. Living the bum life with no job, do freelance design and coding on the Internet. My speciality is vBulletin :)

    Love any types of movies and seen literally 1000's, love music, and summer and loads of other stuff too.

    I've been surfing AS for a while and have been lurking whilst it has its design and content refreshed, thought it was about time I posted.

    Hope to become active/very active as other forums I usually frequent at are boring me :p

    Just about to join the Folding@Home program too :)

    Chris

    Welcome aboard.
    Great to hear about your interests... hope you post about some of them, as they're sure to generate a lot of interest around here with the group we have. ;)

    Also, fantastic to hear about your upcoming participation in Folding@Home. We can use all the help we can get, but outside the team, it's still a fantastic program to contribute to.

    Greetings, Chris!

    We appreciate every new active member, and we look forward to your contributions!

    Thanks for showing interest in our folding@home project, we would love to have you join us for that as well!

    Oh, It's good to hear you're interested in vB, maybe you can assist me one day. :lol:

    Have fun, and tell a friend or ten!

    :welcome: the more the merrier. join our soup, keep your karma points and have some fun.

    once you get a WU back from F@H tell Alien and you'll get a cool red nut by your avatar - I think we are still doing those - once the chaos settles down. :tongue:

    PS beware of prox, as you've been lurking you know about him and his probes. i see that DD and Alien have neglected to mention him....

    This one time, we tried to warn a new member about Prox... let's just say that Alien still has nightmares about the repercussions of that incident. I don't think he sat down without his hemmoroid pillow for 3 weeks.

    Needless to say, I don't want no part of that, so I let the newbies find out about Prox all on their own.

    Hehe, thanks for the warm welcome everybody, appreciate it.

    Just PM me whenever you need help, Alien ;)

    Oh and btw, I've started the Folding@Home program now, do you need any details off me to confirm that? :)

    You joined team 77 (Alien Soup)? That's awesome!

    Just your folding@home name you selected should be good, especially if it's not obvious in the stats userlist. :)

    koehiir: This little guy will be part of the new site, however I cannot yet say to what extent as we're working on quite a bit of crazy stuff we haven't really done before... As for Prox, I hope he shows up soon.. He's got a lot of err.. work to do.. ;)

    Chris: Give it a few hours or so at least, sometimes I believe it's delayed...

    He *was* moving... maybe he hasn't unpacked the level 9 yet.

    Man, is he gonna have a lot of catching up to do when he gets back. Gonna be some very sorry newbies when that happens. :lol:

    Welcome to the soup Chris, now as you have probably been informed It is my duty to pull out the welcoming probe and initiate . . . so bend it on over and dont you worry about a thing . . . this will only hurt a lot.
