While sitting in my cubicle bored out of my mind on an office day, Istarted wondering WTH happened to all my old form buddies/trolls on the HH site. Curiosity got the better of me and with nothing else better to do today I decided to swing by and see what's been up.

 As for me, my life is very hectic. I work over 50 Hours a week at a company called Virtucom and right after work I go straight to school for 4 hours every night except Friday. What little time I have still available is spent sleeping or with my girlfriend.

So what have I missed? any big forum explosions/drama?

 there are still the few from the old days but manydont come around that often... great to have you back in your free time!

 ive never seen you around (though im not too much of an old timer, i was around for a few years. glad to see more old timers coming back. theres been a flood of new people but a majority of them just post like 10 times or so and dont see them any more, though a good amount are staying active. 

Welcome back... it's good to meet people that were here many years ago!

I respect the heck outta Hot Hardware and it's forum community, being a part of it has enriched me... very cool ppl here no doubt!!!

 I think I remember you, did you have a weird folding avatar? Your a linux junkie right?

-Dev

 Yeah I did. Still kinda of  a linux junkie but not as much anymore. The industry is still mostly Microsoft so I'm transitioning to the darkside more and more as I get these Microsoft certifications

Welcome back laggerzero.  Yeah alot has changed since i saw you last and i to havent been around posting as much, more lurking than anything, about all i have time for as of late.  A new site layout, new forum software, new featuers, HH giving away cool stuff, and now complete systems.   Stick around bro, about the only thing that we havent seen come back yet is Elsp lol.

 ^Ha, yea him and the one with the sausage as his avitar... 

Glad to see you stopped by, /high five ! :)

Welcome back buddy and old times forum member! 

ya... there are some newer members (like myself)... but we pwn face... so no worries :)

Ah Laggerzero, good day to you sir.  I was still active when you joined (before my period of limbo) so I think I remember you, but I mostly posted in the graphics forum back then so we didn't collide much.

 Its intresting to see a thread that most people replying are from 2005 or before...lol

I guess count me back in as well! Welcome back! Just got back from a week long trip to New York with my wife and work is slowing down now. Should be back to my old posting self shortly!
