Welcome to Geekzone!

 



 

I am PeterReader, the Geekzone Robot. I will give you some information so you can enjoy your time around here and be

 

 

more productive.

People around here can be funny. When reading a comment don't take it personally as everyone here knows we should

 

 

always attack arguments not the people behind them. But if you see some sarcastic jokes, it happens. With time you

Greetings, and welcome to Geekzone!

Now you have your own 'voice' here. No more possessing the account of the 'other half'!




People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

 

 

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

OK first question.

How do I change the time showing on my posts here. I found where to change it and then hit update button, but it won't save.

Change your location in your profile. Make sure you have no adblocker/scriptblocker running
