To all the Lurkers/Non members/Guests

[TinoY]

We can see you, we know you nice folks are here viewing our fine forums from the attic so to speak, I would like to take the time to ask you all to go ahead, climb down from the attic and sign up for an account with us. It's free, it's easy and it also comes with benefits like meeting new, exciting and smart people.

Hello then everyone. I have been on the forums (and not just this one) for around an eternity. I got a linux box 7months ago...
It is hard to post a question on here or even reply to one when there are so many solutions out there on the web.
One reason i do not ask questions, I just look for them answers. So hopefully i will be able to answer some questions even tho there are a lot of people more accustomed to using linux

Hello and welcome aboard!

I totally agree... a user that knows how to search the web and computer forums for solutions is way ahead in the game, or at least that's so in my own mind.

We look forward to seeing you around...

What Oz said. Glad to have you come out of the attic.

Lurkers? Is that what you call us Googlers that ask a question and get sent here?

So yesterday I came out of the fog and now you see me. I know enough about Linux to use it and not enough to stay out of trouble.

My passion is conky, coffee and mate (the drink). <-- Google that and check it out at wikipedia - only 14 more posts to go.

It's time to get involved.
Can I build a hanger here?

Welcome to the forums.
So you know just enough Linux to be dangerous to yourself? I like that.
We have a nice conky thread but it might be a bit dated.

Oh, and posts in the coffee lounge do not count towards your post count.

Hey Mike ... Yea, that's another way to look at it. A danger to myself my wife hates it when I bork "our" system. I do have a nice little backup script that has saved my bacon a few times though.

Oooooooooooo a conky thread ... yea a tad out dated (2011) someone should rename the thread and leave it as a permanent thread.

Only two pages ... I'll have to work on that.

I'll post my screenshot there later today, right now I have to go out for an hour or so.

Hmmmmmmmm if I post one post for each conky that will be 10 posts. Talk about a kick-start!

PS: Had to strip the link you gave me from you quoted message - I'm not allowed yet.

Until you reach the 15 post mile mark, just mangle the name a bit, like instead of https://www.google.com, try https(dot)//www(dot)google(dot)com
