Hello everyone! Long time no talk! I've been dealing with a lot of stuff dealing with school and such. I don't feel the need to go into details. Anyways, I'm back for a while. Now for the real point. What have you guys been doing? I came to check up on things but all I see lately is spam and stuff that isn't useful. I may be adding to it, but I'm just trying to get things straight. Nice to be back..... I think?

Hey Valiant. How have you been? Hope that everything has gone well. Ugh, well there have been quiet a few awesome portables done. (Marshalls awesome atari[built in roms]). Then we had some mishaps with the servers getting switched, and some posts getting deleted, but thats all fixed now. We had a few spam bots come through here too.

I personally think its more of Dr. Killgoods fault.

Hey, hey, hey we dont need to be pointing no fingers now. I'm not blaming you, but it just seems a little rude.

Bacteria has been shocking most of benheck with some awesome stuff, Benheck brought the entire site down with his PS3 laptop, a day after he released his just-as-good Apple Laptop, people spammed

Sharp Sapphire I so agree with you.

Even though I like all the publicity this site has been getting, the nooblets that follow are unfortunate collateral damage.

My solution... everyone quit being so awesome.

Remember one spam with the mature content? Man, that sucks!

Or, everyone grow to be awesome like it used to be.
Seriously.

A stricter registration process, perhaps?

A small, easy background check to filter out people with zero soldering experience expecting the impossible (The ususal 'build me a ps3 laptop for $50 max, here's a paperclip and a cardboard box you can use if you need to') and the downright immature.

A 5 minute chat online could determine this.
