It seems my attempts at joviality have been misinterpreted once again ...
For this I apologizes ... I forget that not everybody can take a joke and what seems like a joke to one person will seem an insult to another ... I'll try my best in future. (and the leopard will change its spots)

The post in question has been deleted ... we, as Mods, only delete obscene posts or Spam, other posts are either locked or merely soft-deleted ... so, I obviously must have really upset someone.





 
I'm not grouchy by nature, it takes constant effort.

Mucks - I think I can guess which post you are talking about - for my part I realised you were tongue in cheek, joking and generally 'being Mucks'


I'm sure that 'person' will come to realise it was all in fun also - so please don't change, we love you the way you are

I think thats probably enough speculation and innuendo now - I would suggest we all just take the apology as it was meant and move on....

Nothing happened, i just decided to stick with my current username, the reason i got ****ed off is that of the comments about my position...

You fail to remember that i was the one who contributed the most when the crunching project began, i put a lot of time and effort into getting points for good causes.

It's not that i can't take a joke, it was just how it was worded, 'you will be at the bottom in a week anyway' or something like that was posted.

The reason i scored so highly in the beginning was because i was an employee of an internet company, however i quit that job a fair few months ago, thus why points have lacked from me.

As i had around 5 x Dual Pentium servers with that company just because i worked for them, it was all free, and since all that crunching power has been lost.

I now, unfortunately only have three available machines to crunch with, obviously not as powerful as the servers i had when i was employed with the internet company.
