Over the past few weeks several members from Gamespot AU's forum have either left or been banned. The most prominant of these is:
Cactus_Matt (Left)
Electrixxx (Left)
Freek666 (Banned)
Mlisen (Banned)
TurboEvil (Left)
Those were some of the highest contributing members and the reasons I stayed around in the forum, However most of them have moved to a different forum that I have become apart of. The AU forum has become slow and there are too many Noobs repeating the same topics over and over, it is no longer fun and I am beginning to feel it is redundant. I am going to think this over and on the 6th of December (2 weeks) I will make a final decission on wheather or not to leave AU forum. I will still post reviews and post in the blog but I will be absent from the forums if I choose to leave. Feel free to presuade me not to leave and I may stick around if enough people request it.
Until then.

Level 22, another step up the ladder, and I have been a long time without a moderation. Next up, with a little help, I managed to find a compatable driver for windows 7 so I'm able to use my new PC for Gamespot, which is good. Also I will be going on a school camp in a few weeks for 5 days so I wonn't be around for a few days.
Today I finally picked up the PC I ordered a while ago after a string of push backs and 3 sets of 45 minute drives to Bendigo and back.
Let me start off with a few of the basics, it has a Intel Core 2 quad, 4 gig DDR3 ram, a 1 gig DDR3 graphics card and an Asus DDR3 Motherboard, it came in a nice looking thermaltake Soprano case and has a Logitech Bluetooth mouse.
Now, lets start at the beginning as most stories do, I went into Bendigo Centrecom with a list of parts and asked them to build me a computer, they said that in 4-5 days it will be ready. 6 days later we went down there to collect it but they couldn't get the motherboard in on time but they would have it by Tuesday (Melbourne cup) and to come back then. This time I called them to make sure that it was in but bad news struck again when it turned out they were missing a Hard drive, the Ram and the Operating system (The new windows 7) so it would take a little longer to arive. So sick of waiting, today (Thursday) I skipped school and headed for Bendigo to collect my new machine, all the parts were in and I even picked up a wireless adapter with it, I got home, plugged it in, installed a few things but when it got around to the Wireless adaptor I had a little problem, it was not compatable with Windows 7. I am currently writing this on the Old computer due to the fact I can't afford or be bothered running a 15 metre cable from Modem to the new computer at the other end of the house. I will try a few things and see if it works but until then I may no be posting as much.
Until Next blog.
