    Poor you. I'm sure Fuus would provide if you asked nicely. :worried:

    I think I joined for the advice. Stayed for the lulz.

    I used to be a member when it was cpc, but for some reason rejected poor old BT when it was forced upon me. Probably because it was forced upon me, i've had terrible experiences of that in the past..... :worried:

    Then when looking round while pondering replacing my dead pc, i stumbled back here. i lurched in the bushes for quite some time before actually signing up, but I didn't really have an awful lot to say or contribute (waits for shirty to say nothing has changed :p) as had been out of the tech loop for quite some time. Now you're just stuck with me and not even knee-jerk reaction bans for fairly valid expletive usage will get rid of me. :D

    Well I migrated from CPC forum when that shut down, I was annoyed that CPC had shut down did not want to be part of this forum as it was not what I was used to.

    I moved from Nokitech(A french and now inanimate forum). I was tired of hardware nazis who were yelling at noobs each time they dared asking a question :-/ The life on Bit-Tech is so much more casual :D

    I came from the cpc forums as well. I was happy with the change because the old forums had some serious issues handling basic operations.

    I was looking into plexi cases and found the original article for Macro Black a few months after it was published.

    The front page bought me to the forum, for about 4 years before I joined the forum I read the front page and the news and then I started reading the modding/project logs, then after doing that for years I finally signed up, and now I don't read any of those sections at all.
    :)

    (and the kiddie porn section.)

    You mean User CP? :cooldude:

    I remember most of the folks who came across from the CPC forums because I posted a fair bit on there too, although join dates tend to give it away too.
