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

help us make sure the community is safe.

Anybody else think it's odd that there are 5 new introductions all posted within 10 mins of each other?

Eta: actually 6!

It's not the intros, it's a user replying to them all in quick succession. Seems to be replying for the sake of it too, not adding much to the conversation.

Welcome Aboard.

PS Is the formatting of PeterReader's post fubar for anyone else?

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.
