General advice would be an interesting thread, albeit it would just end up as one big argument.

Yeah, lets call it "Dating with Dice"

Hahahaha ^_^

I just think sharing advice is a good idea in general

I bet you're on imgur..

I'm not clicking that but i recognised the name.

Actually I'm not, found a GIF of this on another forum and decided to go look it up... Luckily I can close down these kind of games really easily

Where and when?!

Anyway. I actually think a relationship thread might be helpful! Sure, it's not manly, but I stand with my opinion. I've never really been a lady-killer though :lol:

Alleyway behind my house, midnight.

Or in other words, the sexy lady thread is for fapping and the relationship advice thread is for when fapping doesn't cut it anymore.

:lol:

The whole "Manly" thing is a load of bullshit anyway.
Relationship advice isn't "UN-manly" if anything it's more manly because your looking for info on how to better deal with a woman's wants and needs which last time I looked being with a woman and making her happy is a good thing and one of THE most manly things you can do ^_^

Well said. Although IT WAS STILL A JOKE
I do like how everyone with long lasting relationships comes to me for advice and the longest one I've been in lasted 6 months or so :lol:

It's already a big argument and there isn't even a thread yet.

 

[SuB]

That would be the way sad little wankers use it, In general it would be there to help your fellow man *the advice thread that is*

Tone it down a little lads

Agreed, lets not... and lets put this back on to FML rails shall we...

Ive thankfully never walked in dog poo with no socks or shoes on. However i was talking to a friend last night saying how they had.... :sick1::eek4::smile4:

I can breathe a sigh of relief, that SSD I sent with Royal Mail first class finally got delivered 18 days later today. No need to worry about paying the buyer back any money \o/

Screw Royal Mail though for giving me stress

That's good to hear... 18 days for 1st class recorded sounds about right :lol:

I use Hermes or DPD when sending hardware these days, purely because I want to know where my stuff is during it's trip.

Phew, thank the sacrificial gods it arrived! I would of been freaking out!

So today I will mostly be banging ones head off the desk, 2 laptops currently updating after a re-image for a customer, BETA testing something that is just not going that great at the moment and waiting for Scan to get me a AIO replacement after testing found that the pump had infact failed.

That's the main thing that freaks me out about AIO, failing pumps and more so leakage all over inside parts of pc! They do look nice though! Also if you need to cool the vrms down (ofc though some air coolers fans dont cool them down depending on size etc...) I'm just paranoid!

I was paranoid until I actually brought my pc (with an AIO) to a few lans. Its never leaked and if things go wrong, you can deffo hear it.

Phew! I'm not alone! They do look good, and really keep the temps down. I always had thoughts of looking at my window and seeing a waterfall (if it went wrong! ) The cost of them pretty much made me go for air for now though! I think i'd have to try one, one time to set my mind at ease. I'm not against AIO in any way, i always think of worse possible situations

I ended up going for the thermalright true spirit power 140, it was a breeze to install, but my god it's tall!

Well it will happen, Royal mail got sold off to the old school boys *handshakers/fat cats/inbreed silver spoons etc...* so now that it's truly private it can only get worse.

Man I hate England, The only place in Europe where the government goes to war on it's own people.

All the public school boys need to have their heads put on the block, Starting with cameron then osbourne infact lets just do what Guy Fawkes should of done, Blow the lot of em up and get REAL people in who know what life is like and not some pussies who have never had a worry in their lives other than where to go on holiday and which of their mansions to sleep in tonight.

Ha ha yeah I was apprehensive at first but I miss it now especially the temps and noise I have checked with Scan and they are waiting for a replacement but given that all the Cooler Master AIOs on their website are on preorder I could be waiting a while and they better not fob me off with a Seidon 120v either.

I am at the moment toying with the idea of a full custom loop, maybe in the next build though.

Last time I did an RMA with scan they took roughly 3 months to sort it out, Not even exaggerating.

The problem was a faulty keyboard and even after they received it they claimed it never arrived there even though I checked with DPD, Spoke to the driver that delivered it and who got one of their employees signatures at scan and gave me a description of the person that signed for it.

Never ordered a thing from them again and I never will.

I agree with you Dice, not only about Royal Mail but also the Tories! Rants can be good!

Yeah, i can understand losing your main cooler and having to make do. I hope they sort it out quickly for you Wraith, would it be any use contacting CM aswell as they might offer advice/look into scan and your rma? Full water loops look so nice, just so pricey!

I can relate, i had issues with them a long time ago... about 2005 time, my motherboard was faulty and spent a long time diagnozing it, only to be told it was fine (and they couldn't test it online?) So wanted to charge me £25 or so to send the broken thing back to me... There was no mention of manufacturers. It mainly why i shop at amazon for parts with their return policy.

I must admit though, i did purchase win8.1 from them as it was cheaper than every place i could find, i only trust them with things that can't go wrong such as software/coolers etc... if 8.1 wasn't so cheap on there i would have gone somewhere else to be honest (and probably should have on principle)

I mainly get all my stuff from OCUK, Since the German company Caseking.de bought them out *Owned by Toni Sonn who comes from the same part of Berlin as I do ^_^ * and since then I've never had a problem and if I have then a quick phone call has sorted it out very quickly.

Before caseking.de bought them I had so many problems it was untrue and that's also why scan fails, They are owned by a rich indian guy who has no idea about customer service and doesn't really care as long as he makes a profit.
