So I joined this place

<t>Thanks for all the replies.<br/>
<br/>
I have never been on this particular forum before. I have visited many. I do play an instrument too - I play the piano and also can play keyboards. I have been trying to work out in the last few weeks what kind of midi software I can get to actually record ...

So I joined this place

<t>I hope some people will listen and enjoy. Probably most of the younger generation though just consider me some old guy who can't take it that music has moved on.<br/>

I hate it when people hear a great new song and make comments like "that kind of thing belongs in 1996", especially that ...

The Amazing Minesweeper Trick!

I played this game a lot in 1992-93 when I first got Windows. Got good at the game but developed RSI playing it.

I have always wanted to program a bot to play it.

<t>When you say self-promote you mean advertise?<br/>

No, I am not here to do that, I don't make any profit out of any of it. Nor am I here to try to recruit people to other sites.<br/>

So I joined this place

<t>I think I just found it searching on something.<br/>

Actually it often annoys me somewhat that I cant just reply to a topic I am interested in at any forum / message board without having to join yet another forum to make my point.<br/>

Still, this forum seems to have "life", i.e ...

GYM - bracknell

<t>I joined a gym in November 2007 when I had one at the workplace and even though I'm not working there anymore I still go to a gym.<br/>

I am going through a phase now where I am getting bored of self-training but still go to group classes, I like Body Building in particular ...

Quoting a post with a smiley in it

<t>I am using IE8.<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
I have noticed in the past week also that I have been getting a lot of errors on forums where I get the "diagnose connection problems" button. (That didn't happen in this case though).<br/>

When I hit "back" I got the form but not my ...

bartons red card the A.A grumpy column

<t>What he's done in the past has been dreadful but there is probably an overreaction over the red card against Liverpool.<br/>

Yes it was a red card but it wasn't anywhere near as bad as that tackle against Hull earlier in the season that put the player out for several months ...

Just that I replied to a post quoting something that had a smiley, went to an effort to type my reply and submitted only to be greeted by that message and when I went BACK my post had gone.<br/>

Quoting a post with a smiley in it

<t>I dared to quote a post that someone had put a smiley in and got my post wiped out with a message that I am not allowed to post links to other sites because I had not made enough posts.<br/>

I'm not posting links to other sites you stupid morons.

Now how about making it a user option. And not wiping out what I type needlessly.

Phobias?

I have a very unusual phobia: sandals and flip-flops. Makes the summer months hard. I even hate "peep-toes" and hate the fact that celebrities seem to be wearing them even in winter.

Starbucks

<t>I love Starbucks lattes and particularly rate them above Costa because I can add vanilla powder to my coffee which enhances the taste.<br/>
<br/>
I do not think their coffee is that overpriced given that they have a store to maintain and staff to pay as well as they have fairtrade arrangements ...
