OK guys, lets take this into a positive direction....I'm wondering how we can motivate members with 0 points today to start crunching. Ideas? I don't want to harass, just encourage.

keep it positive. negative never gets anything accomplished.

Now to pull a prize from my butt....

Pics of that alone could attract a little attn I think.

the reason they hate XS is because the XS admins and mods hide the truth when it surfaces.

XS deletes posts that show certain mods/admins flaws.

thats why redraider hates XS so much.

BUT

he does the same thing on his site. he has deleted everything that exposed the real redraider AHOLE he is. not just my posts but others as well.

now dont take me wrong... i dont know all the details of the XS stuff but i was told about it.

XS is a very good site but it just seems that alot of people are there to only show off their accomplishments and not to help anyone else. i just wish ppl where a little more helpful where itss needed(phase/cascade/watercooling/overclocking sections)

I have been a member at XS for quite a while and while I do agree with you that people are less helpful now then they used to be, you can still get lots of information and help there, especially in the wcg section

You guys need to stay off that forum. It's a waste of time and all it does is inflate their self worth. Not sure when being an asshole was a sign of maturity.

Good advice, just let them be. Focus on what we have going here.


On a side note, just got my first i7 rig together. Right now priming at 3.8, ht on, 1.24v, cooling with a lapped true and med panaflo. Temps in the low 60's

Edit: just took as screenie.

Well in lite of everything.. I just added an Intel Pentium E2160 Conroe! Can you see me now?... lol We TPUers don't lay down!.. We fight back with numbers not words!

Oh yea crunchers now equal 25!

 

[A novice]

Everyone on the team should read this page, especially the last few posts. Wow, just wow. So much for common good....just don't let it turn into a war of words. We are better than this. Just let the crunching numbers do the talking.

thast the same way I feel about XS, although I have gotten help there don't get me wrong, its just a forum thats good to browse around and gather what you need. But staying around and trying to get help just doenst happen there. Thats why im on my way to 6k posts in just over a year here at TPU, the most amazing forum evar!!!

every time i make a thread on XS asking about something i get 1 or 2 responses with general remarks questioning that i have any knowledge at all.

if i reply to someone elses thread my comment goes unnoticed as if i never posted it at all.

now dont take me wrong though. i like XS alot.

i have gotten my fair share of praise in just 2 threads, my supercooler build log and my acrylic tops project log.

XS has tons of great reading material and thats as valuable to me as anything else. i DO wish they would be more helpful though.

I do notice a lot of my posts go un noticed as well. some ok, but some have good info and they just fail to see it. Oh well. At least we are on the same page when it comes to XS

that thread is pretty much dead.

once i get into specific questions no one replies.

i've tried other forums as well. no one knows phase or cascade stuff as well as they say and the ones who do wont help because they would rather you pay them to do it.

rant = off.

 

[Chicken Patty]

man, Im really amazed. stunned.

 

[bogmali]

Hey Fit you're not the only one who's IP is banned over there

 

[Fitseries3]

i think they all earned the honorary...

AWARD
good job redraiders! keep it up.

(dont quote me. im going to edit this post to preserve the quality of TPU)

 

[Chicken Patty]

I think im banned too this is just hilarious.

 

[bogmali]

If I was really back home (originally from TX), I'd pay that guy a visit over at Lubbock just to see if he can back up what he says on his forums

 

[ChaoticAtmosphere]

I followed the link and read that page....gosh what children...and who'd want to be a member of a tech forum that has a c**ks***ng smilie anyway?? Real mature. A sign of low self-esteem maybe? People who always have to be right or better? Geez.

Ooooo who can crunch more?? Who gives a f***. Paulieg is right in his posts.

Personally, I think we should leave them alone in their sandbox. TPU is just fine.


TPU rocks!

he lives in baytown tx.... outside of houston. i can give you his address if you want. im planning a visit this summer.

 

[Chicken Patty]

yeah I got caught by surprise over there, nobody said anything offensive. But yet the owner of the forums is the first to break the rules and call me a pussy.

Rule #1, anything goes... (Other than personal attacks, continuous flaming, sexually explicit pics, mentioning of illegal drugs, trolling, and innapropiate user names.

But he calls me a pussy, thats a personal attack right?

Great, i have families in Beaumont which is 45 mins away. I should take you up on your offer Fits but it's really not worth the effort

He did it to me as well so don't sweat it bro. Let's keep our head in the game (errr crunching I mean).

Instead of wasting your time and money looking for some Internet trash talker, spend it on a Q8200 in a matx rig and give the team a healthy boost.


I'm sure you'd hurt their e-penis feelings that way too..afterall, they dont like the idea of TPU doing better in WCG than they are doing.
