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

 

 

will see there are lots of people who post around the forums in a variety of topics. Those more frequent posters

 

 

help us make sure the community is safe.

Hah!




I'm a geek, a gamer, a dad, a Quic user, and an IT Professional. I have a full rack home lab, size 15 feet, an epic beard and Asperger's. I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it. If you use my Quic signup you can also use the code R570394EKGIZ8 for free setup. Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.
