Dead2u Introduction

Good Evening (well it's evening for me anyway) all.
I"m a self employed man with too much time on his hands and who listens to extreme metal way too loud while reading HP Lovecraft stories.
My wife tells me I"m a cynical misanthrope who despite all efforts to the contrary, is still curious about how humans feel.
I dislike most movies (anime and 50's sci-fi being the rare exceptions) and think that MacDonald's burger's taste better cold the next day.
My reason's for trying this site are probably the same as many. I get (and have gotten) fed up with the childish bickering on other sites so I search for and try out new ones.

Welcome Dead2u! Did you join for any particular discussion or just looking for a place to settle in online? Let me know how I can assist you while you are here.

Introduction Deadu

Thank you both for the greeting.
I didn't really come looking for any particular subjects, just a good variety. Most forums are fairly set in their subjects for discussion but the mix I saw here gave me hopes for more the standard "metal only chat" "home hints only" "computer science only" forums. I like to flit and have an opinion on almost anything.
I"ll fill in some more details on my profile and start burrowing into things very soon.

Introduction Deadu

We do have quite a variety of subjects here that caters for most anything. If you need help finding something just let me know.

Dead2u Introduction

It's a good forum with a lot of topics, a ton of variety, and a solid and consistent moderation team and administration, and plenty of FAQs and other documentation and help to read. It's like a forum with a self-study course running through it - you should be able to find about anything you need to keep you entertained, informed, and to allow you to speak your mind on various subjects.

Dead2u Introduction

I"m not sure if this is the right place to ask a question but I have a rather annoying little problem with the site loading.
The "Please Wait... Loading" overlay message never to rarely (one or twice only) completes its job & goes away. It was OK for the first week or so after I joined but ever since, big grey box obscuring the top left corner.
Anyone got any suggestions or thoughts?
