Hey there,

do I qualify?

Opti · 2005-03-11, 07:43 PM

Hmmm.. kinda secretive acting for a straight talking sorta guy who wants to meet anyone willing.... why do you need to use PMs? And no need for the attitude, in PM or public either mate!

There is a zillion Aussies here.. if your request wasn't a little strange sounding I bet more would have said hello by now ;-)

Hang around and participate.. you will get invited to stuff as it comes up if people know who you are.. And just so you don't miscontrue me twice..... you have a weird site with amazon ads on it and come across like a badly trained investigative journalist trying to infiltrate a group you dont understand to me. (and I am NOT the paronoid type) .. that's why I asked for a bit more info ;-)

i'm really at a loss for words. because you DO come across as the paranoid type ESPECIALLY when you think i'm some kind of badly trained investigative journalist.

how many badly trained investigative journalists have tried to infiltrate this site?

i came to this site, had a look around, registered and being a noob i thought i better introduce myself with a hey yo, anyone else around here from australia too? maybe i should have said 'how about the weather?' but then i could have come across as a badly trained meteorologist :p

it was actually digifan who PMed me at another site with the link to this site. which was very nice of her. i asked for some tips and suggestions on something and i guess out of courtesy she didn't just dump the mention of another forum in the thread. but i appreciate it.

i thought i was being a funny smart arse by misquoting your 'Not being unfriendly...'

but anyways, lets start again, i'm australian, recently quit my full time job as a graphic designer, visited this site from a tip-off from a member of another webmasters forum, had no idea there was a zillion other australian's here.

and when i say 'network' i mean if per chance there was a fellow member here living anywhere between Sydney and Newcastle we could get together for coffee. coffee. just in case anyone wishes to think i'm here looking for sex or something :p

No wonder we have dropped straight to bum sniffing talk! I love me royals

We have Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden plus Our Mary and her Danish Prince here at the moment.. and Prince Charles has just left.. must be low season for the nobles in Europe!

We don't know each other well enough for these backdoor schananigans yet Aussiewebguy.. but come to lunch, and drink too much, and we might look after you somehow. ;-))
