Thread: Indefinite Absence
I have recently been absent from SWG due to (A) the Xistmas holidays; (B) some difficulty upgrading Windows98 to WindowsXP; and (C) moving to a new place across town. This is why I haven't been around, updating resources for the Tempest Resource Co-op, etc.
Sadly, my absence from SWG has been extended indefinitely. In the process of moving, there was an accident involving my computer, a fast-moving dog, and a hard linoleum surface. The result of this accident is that my computer is b0rken in a major way.
At the very least, my hard drive had a head crash, which means those 30 gigs of
At worst, it's something that will prevent me from booting the computer even with the addition of a new hard drive.
If it's something that can be fixed with the addition of a new hard drive, you may see me sooner rather than later. If it's something more serious, I'm pretty much screwed until I get a new computer. I WAS going to get an Alienware system for Xistmas, but thanks to the finanical scrambling we've had to do to get moved, it will be at least 2 months before I get it.
Either way, I'll keep you posted.

"which means those 30 gigs"
I feel for ya... I have 280 gigs of "Mission Critical Data" on my machine.
I would be severely depressed if I were to lose it in some misfortune.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Oh, sorry. Well, at least stay in touch via the forums at work ... err ... your alternative access to the Internet.
Man that sucks bad, I hope your able to come back to the community quickly. Your sagely wisdom is needed and will be missed.(Is "sagely" are word or did I just make that up?)
Anyway always remember, back up your porn. It's always a pain in the arse losing a lifelong collection.
-Hope to see you back soon.
VG...
Wow... sorry to hear about your loss! But don't worry - we've saved an overstuffed recliner for you over in the
Rifleman's Hall, cause we know you'll need some relaxation time when you get back online!

Oh geez... that brings a tear to my eye. I dont even know what I would do if I lost all the MISSION CRITICAL DATA
Sage advise...Isn't that something Chef's would use?
E.g., I would not use Thyme in that Breath of Heaven. I would use Sage.
/grin
Never use sage in BOH, always use Unknown Radioactive Six.
