I'm almost in the 4.000th post...
I even cannot remember myself as a newbie in these forums.
After so long time I'm asking myself if it isn't the time to stop...
I tried to do my best.
Techie is helping me and the others. Well the others are quite a long list!
Sasha, MacLover, Bob, Cojo, RejZoR, Shgoh, Whocares, Mike, Raman, Minacross, Waldo, Culpeper (where is he?), Mantra, Bri,
Shall I let some other to take my place and try to help the others? :-\
-
Technical you are very Helpful here. It would be a huge loss to us all if you left. I Hope you stay to at least your 10,000th post. Please Stay!
P.S if you do decide to leave at least stop by and say hi every now and then!
-
I agree with you that losing Technical would be a great loss of a fellow forum member, friend, and a person with a great deal of knowledge. Hope not to lose you. You are a great deal of help to me and others on this forum. Just wanted to say thank you for all the help you have giiven me and to the others of the forum that haven't said so.
-
Technical... don't tell me you are switching to BitDefender... :(
Are you tired of these forums ? I guess your answer is NO. Then stay here and don't tell those stupidities any more...
4000th post or not... that doesn't count... what counts is human good will, kindness and readiness to help to other.
I think you have all those characteristics, so I won't tell you what to do... decide yourself, and I'm 100% sure you're gonna make good decision. You know that we all want you to stay...
10000th post-bound !!! Let's go !
-
I appreciate the help you gave me too.
-
run away????? :o
technical is not a coward that i known of!!! :'(
i thought we are a band of brothers with avast for life???!!?? ;D
don't you ever think of leaving us again!
-
Technical,
4000 posts that's not even half way to the 10,000 mark that I want to accomplish before I leave (croke) this forum. You my friend have to much knowledge to leave us poor soles out here to fend for ourselves.
What makes you even think about leaving here? This is family and you can't just quit the family.
Besides you said we could be clones and that means you can't leave till I do.
-
Hang in there, Technical -- you've been a great help to us. Totally aside from your assistance to individuals, most of the great technical (and even a few of the admin) sticky threads here were your own work, like the one on the INI and the newer FAQ's.
If you've got things happening in your life that will make increasing demands on your time, at least drop in a couple of times a day. And for heaven's sake, please don't get any ideas that we're tired of you or your help or even just your companionship.
Best,
Mike
-
Yea the Off-Topic forum needs you to keep it under control! Now lets see 10,00 posts from you
-
Technical and to All...
I know that at times we spend hours upon hours sitting here by the computer answering posts and doing research. It is hard to do and it takes much of us.
But in return, we go forward knowing that we have helped as many as we could......those users who would not have the support that they need.
You have been a leader and friend for a long time.
I have followed your trail and learned much from you.
Your are an inspiration to us all.
For you to leave when you have contributed so much here in the forum would be a loss unmeasurable.
Yes, there are many others, some of whom you mentioned, that do their best to assist users, but behind every good team is the "leader" who guides, directs, supports and teaches.
YOU, Technical.....are our Leader.
Please stay. The words come from the heart.
Techie

I'll post my feelings after all...
But now, right now, I offer the 4.000th post to MacLover as I promissed 8)
Thank you folks. I'm just trying to finish an endless work here:
http://forum.avast.com/index.php?board=9;action=display;threadid=4818
Do you remember Carpenters song:
Sometimes I like to quit
Nothing have seems to fit...
-
Technical
You are very much appreciated by those of us who have so little knowledge :)
Your post "links for almost"etc is my computer friend!!!!
Here's to yr 100000000000000th ;D
Cheers Phil

Having burst through the 4000 barrier, perhaps its a bit late to run and hide.
Perhaps you could let some of the others take the load whilst you work on the Users FAQ. I also think that the Users FAQ should be more prominent In the opening forum screen, something like a bold text heading.
First Visit - Please read the avast! Users FAQ thread (with appropriate link).
This would I believe reduce the overall number of posts as it should overcome many early problems.
It should also indicate the information we need in order to be able to help them, rather than the current process of extracting information from them bit by bit (like a dentist pulling teeth it's painful). This should also speed up the resolution process and reduce the time required to help.
Just my 2pence worth and a plea not to give up, we are rank amatures clutching at straws by comparison.

techincal...you are just too brilliant! :)
-
Technical, are you serious or just kidding ::) :o ??? ?
I can't even imagine these forums without you and all the good guys here. We are like a family, it is not a good thing losing one of the family.
keep going pal ;) :)
-
Technical,
We all feel the same way as minacross. I can't understand what brought you to this terrible decision? Is it something any of us either said or did? Please let us know what we can do to make you change your mind. :'( :'( :'(
-
We are like a family, it is not a good thing losing one of the family.
very well said...minacross :)
-
And best of all, Technical... these forums are not just about avast! issues... they are for making friends and contats as well. Alwil knows that, and they approved our posts even they are not avast! related in any way sometimes...
You are our friend and we want everything to stay that way !
If you leave, I'll leave... I promise ! (dead serious)
-
I'll think and think about it.
Don't worry, I'll answer each single message posted here.
Thanks :-[
-
great news.. ;D ;D
you know, you are one of the family ;) ;)
-
Boys, you'll make me cry :-[
-
Technical,
If that's what it takes :'( :'(, then go ahead and cry but don't leave here. you have to many friends here and, a whole lot more to be made ;D
-
Hi Technical,
You are the first person I've ‘met’ on these forums ; actually, you sent me a kind PM. Then I saw the HUGE work you've done here : I've read your FAQ, your amazing softwares' list, etc.
I understand forums can be very addictive, and consume much time (I've posted 7500 and 3400 messages in two french boards dedicated to Windows and computers for a broad audience). And sometimes, life expects much more than sitting behind a PC.
Whatever your choice will be, keep up the good work :).
-
Boys, you'll make me cry :-[
OK now... boys don't cry !!! Well, I cried once when bee stinged me, hehe ;D
-
You always did the ownage man ! so don't leave and show us some more moves !
Thats an order ! ;)
Waldo
-
Technical you are very Helpful here.
If you do decide to leave at least stop by and say hi every now and then!
Thanks Mac. As you saw, I give you my 4.000th post.
My intention here was always help and learn.
Let's make our wonderful land of friendship better and better.
-
I agree with you that losing Technical would be a great loss of a fellow forum member, friend, and a person with a great deal of knowledge. Hope not to lose you. You are a great deal of help to me and others on this forum. Just wanted to say thank you for all the help you have giiven me and to the others of the forum that haven't said so.
Radical, good sales ;D
I learned more than teach. I learned things that computer and machines cannot teach.
-
I appreciate the help you gave me too.
Luieg, you teach me a lot too. Thanks for your perseverance under my crude explanations.
-
Technical... don't tell me you are switching to BitDefender... :(
I must admite that this was the funniest objection in this story. I laught a lot ;D
How can I change avast! for a backup scanner? Are you joking?
Are you tired of these forums ? I guess your answer is NO. Then stay here and don't tell those stupidities any more... 4000th post or not... that doesn't count... what counts is human good will, kindness and readiness to help to other.
Well, I hope you all bet that number of posts.
You're right, try to find any other forum with this level of kindness and help... You won't find so many others.
I think you have all those characteristics, so I won't tell you what to do... decide yourself, and I'm 100% sure you're gonna make good decision. You know that we all want you to stay... 10000th post-bound !!! Let's go !
This is 100% Sasha: how can a man give up with such a entusiastic croatian besides him? 8)
-
run away????? :o
technical is not a coward that i known of!!! :'(
Well, what can I say?
i thought we are a band of brothers with avast for life???!!?? ;D
don't you ever think of leaving us again!
You're right... Will you be here forever? Promise?
-
Technical, 4000 posts that's not even half way to the 10,000 mark that I want to accomplish before I leave (croke) this forum. You my friend have to much knowledge to leave us poor soles out here to fend for ourselves. What makes you even think about leaving here? This is family and you can't just quit the family. Besides you said we could be clones and that means you can't leave till I do.
Bob, your Sasha's avatar is a litte bit serious ;D
Poor soles? You have the best companion in this forum. But you're right, how can I even think on quit the family ::)
-

If you've got things happening in your life that will make increasing demands on your time, at least drop in a couple of times a day. And for heaven's sake, please don't get any ideas that we're tired of you or your help or even just your companionship.
Best, Mike
I'll listen your advice if things get worse: at least drop in a couple of times a day
-
Yea the Off-Topic forum needs you to keep it under control!
Oh, Techie is much more than we need ;D
What about a board that have only:
avast Evangelists and, at the same time, Pro version users...
I think they deserve the better help support than all.
But don't tell this to Pavel or he will give us more and more work to do ;D
-
I know that at times we spend hours upon hours sitting here by the computer answering posts and doing research. It is hard to do and it takes much of us. But in return, we go forward knowing that we have helped as many as we could... those users who would not have the support that they need.
You know me very well bro 8)
You have been a leader and friend for a long time.
I have followed your trail and learned much from you.
Your are an inspiration to us all.
For you to leave when you have contributed so much here in the forum would be a loss unmeasurable.
Techie, you too... Maybe I have to learn from you guys how to pass difficult momments.
Yes, there are many others, some of whom you mentioned, that do their best to assist users, but behind every good team is the "leader" who guides, directs, supports and teaches.
Well, all of you too... I can't imagine myself as a leader.
Please stay. The words come from the heart. Techie
What can I say... :-[

Technical
You are very much appreciated by those of us who have so little knowledge :)
Your post "links for almost" etc. is my computer friend!!!!
Here's to yr 100000000000000th ;D

Phil, I was almost forgot about that thread... It will give a lot of work to keep updated. Maybe someone can help me...
-
Having burst through the 4000 barrier, perhaps its a bit late to run and hide.
David is always a pratice man and do not let me an exit ;D
Perhaps you could let some of the others take the load whilst you work on the Users FAQ. I also think that the Users FAQ should be more prominent In the opening forum screen, something like a bold text heading.
First Visit - Please read the avast! Users FAQ thread (with appropriate link).
This would I believe reduce the overall number of posts as it should overcome many early problems.
I really apreciate your quoting. That thread could, in my opinion, save some of our time for leisure and higher helping if we could :)
It should also indicate the information we need in order to be able to help them, rather than the current process of extracting information from them bit by bit (like a dentist pulling teeth it's painful). This should also speed up the resolution process and reduce the time required to help. Just my 2pence worth and a please not to give up, we are rank amatures clutching at straws by comparison. David
That was the purpose as you get it... Sometimes painful, can we give up?
-
Techincal...you are just too brilliant! :)
:-[ :-[ :-[
-
Technical, are you serious or just kidding ::) :o ??? ?
I do not start this just for joke... I'm not kidding as someone could think.
I can't even imagine these forums without you and all the good guys here. We are like a family, it is not a good thing losing one of the family.
keep going pal ;) :)
Well, the forums will stay here and become better and better with all your participation as well. Anyway, this is my favorite Egiptian friend 8)
-
Technical,
We all feel the same way as minacross. I can't understand what brought you to this terrible decision? Is it something any of us either said or did? Please let us know what we can do to make you change your mind. :'( :'( :'(
Bob, it's a long journey and it's very late now to write it all...
Your friendship can change my mind... Believe it! 8)
-
We are like a family, it is not a good thing losing one of the family.
Shgoh, I lost some users here that hurt me a lot.
The old ones will remember Walker :'(
-
And best of all, Technical... these forums are not just about avast! issues... they are for making friends and contats as well. Alwil knows that, and they approved our posts even they are not avast! related in any way sometimes... You are our friend and we want everything to stay that way !
Sure, I remember your first posts... Your avatar at that time and your language.
I remember the first contant with the Canadian boy!
If you leave, I'll leave... I promise ! (dead serious)
I think this is more words that reality. I appreciate your friendship so much.
-
you know, you are one of the family ;) ;)
Will any of you leave me in the future...?
How can I live without you too?
I hate to lose family members too (Techie, you know I prayed for your Mom).
I miss Cojo, she's at the Hospital and cannot be here :'(
-
Technical,
If that's what it takes :'( :'(, then go ahead and cry but don't leave here. you have to many friends here and, a whole lot more to be made ;D
Bob, friends are friends. You're more than this: you're a clone, remember?
-
Hi Technical, You are the first person I've ‘met’ on these forums ; actually, you sent me a kind PM. Then I saw the HUGE work you've done here : I've read your FAQ, your amazing softwares' list, etc.
You're the lucky 5000th guy! Sorry that I do not explain what I was talking about at that time when I sent that IM.
I understand forums can be very addictive, and consume much time (I've posted 7500 and 3400 messages in two french boards dedicated to Windows and computers for a broad audience). And sometimes, life expects much more than sitting behind a PC.
So, you understand me. I can foresee that you will contribute a lot with avast to, won't you? Wellcome on board.
Whatever your choice will be, keep up the good work :).
Thanks man.
-
OK now... boys don't cry !!!
Well, all man cry :'(
Only the animals and the men without heart do not cry.
-
You always did the ownage man ! so don't leave and show us some more moves !
Thats an order ! ;)
Waldo
Waldo, what a surprise to see you back here?
Do you remember your first posts about jv16PowerTools?
Waldo is our 'layered defense' teacher and guru :)
-
The old ones will remember Walker
Yes I rember him. :'(
-
The old ones will remember Walker
Yes I rember him. :'(
Will he come back?
I'll do anything for him to come back... 8)
-
You're right... Will you be here forever? Promise?
maybe you are right...i won't be here forever...that's why life's always sad :'(...everyone comes and goes...
don't worry technical...i trust your decision..really... :)
-
That's why life's always sad :'(...everyone comes and goes...
At least we can make life as happy as we can... without leaving before the time comes ;D
Don't worry technical... i trust your decision... really... :)
Thanks for comprehension... But I did not decide yet ;D
-
I miss Cojo, she's at the Hospital and cannot be here :'(
oh... :o...is she okay?
no wonder i didn't see her online for quite some time...the last time was when she was asking me about mozilla/firefox stuffs...
hope she's alright...
-
OK now... boys don't cry !!!
Well, all man cry :'(
Only the animals and the men without heart do not cry.
Well, not quite true... I had a friend and he died in terrible accident... His dog cried every single day till he died... sad but true... that tells me just one thing - animals sometimes shows better feelings than humans... and what's best - they don't lie, ever, period - people do lie !
-
And best of all, Technical... these forums are not just about avast! issues... they are for making friends and contats as well. Alwil knows that, and they approved our posts even they are not avast! related in any way sometimes... You are our friend and we want everything to stay that way !

I remember the first contant with the Canadian boy!
If you leave, I'll leave... I promise ! (dead serious)
I think this is more words that reality. I appreciate your friendship so much.
My language ? :o What was wrong with my language ? ;D
I never lie... you don't know me well... if I say something it's gonna be like that no matter what I have to do in order to accomplish that, I'll do that... I will never promise anything that I can't make it happen. Those who knows me better, they know what I'm talking about. I promised some skins, and all of them are placed in avast! skins download section today. I spoked about triangular skin, no one believed me that it's possible to make it, and I showed them I was right... I never play with my feelings, 'cause I almost lost my feelings, so I'm the one that knows best how human feelings are precious to us !!!
That's me...
-
Animals don't lie, ever, period - people do lie !
Am I lying? ::)

You know, nothing special, just I though you have 17 years old at that time... ;D

That's me...
No, I do not intend to say you're a lier 8) Of course, not. I appreciate your fidelity. I'm starting to know you... Do you know me? What can be said for That's Technical...?
-
Hi Technical,
You and Techie were the first ones to help me when I came aboard. ;D
And who else stands up for Spamihilator as much as you and me? ::)
So don't run away, instead just stay! ;)

Well, where to start ? Let say you are very diligent guy, you like to help people, that means you have good heart my frined... oh yeah, wonderful friend. Guy with great knowledge base inside your "processor"... I know you like nature, your bicycle... what do you need more ? That's Technical ! ;)
-
Hi Tecnical it's Niko !
Listen to me: it's very simple you can't stop like this.
I'm just a avast! beginner, I just discover a WONDERFULL forum, WONDERFULL people, WONDERFULL way of speaking eachother, and maybe an another WONDERFULL way of thinking....
So, please, stay online with avast! team !

Hi Technical,
You are the first person I've ‘met’ on these forums ; actually, you sent me a kind PM. Then I saw the HUGE work you've done here : I've read your FAQ, your amazing softwares' list, etc.
Whatever your choice will be, keep up the good work :).
same here, and I agree with someone who said to make the FAQs more visible. Incorporating it in the official website would be nice since I try to read FAQs first.
The world need more people like you and the others here. ;)
Keep up the good work guys, you are the best!!! 8)

After 1000 posts I'm still alive...
Thanks for the support guys: MacLover, Radical, Craftec, Shgoh, Bob, Mike
Techie, David, Minacross, Waldo, bbfi (where is he?), Whocares, Raman, Mantra (where is he?), Cojo, Eddy, Charley, Soujornet, Suzzanah, Madmax, Lee, RejZor, LeDoc ...
Many thanks to you all, you made this forum! You made the soul of avast! :)
Well, now I got the 6000 8)
-
You are a Big part of the soul of avast! too! :) And You Helped Make this forum. You joined in July of 2003 and I did not join untill November 8, 2003 :)

Technical -
I have to agree with Mac. Though this forum would have a soul without you, with you it is an even more helpful and compassionate soul! Thank you for all the help you've given all of us. :D
You know, sometimes you help someone without even knowing it. Sometimes, the help you give someone may be read by still another (and another and another ......) and that other one thinks ... "Ah, so that's why my computer (or avast!) does (or does not do) that. So, off the other goes to change or fix whatever idea you sparked in his/her mind.
I know this is true. You see, I am one of those "another." This has happened many times since your first post in this thread earlier this year ... not just to me but to many others. I failed to thank you then. And so, now I thank you for the help you did not know you gave me ... and to the many others, too.
I sure am glad you are still here! :D

Technical, Congratulations on 6,000 posts...
and thank you for all your help and loyalty to Avast! and the forums...

Hi Technical:
One of the SMARTEST things you ever did to help all of us, was your decision NOT to run away. Your constant help and devotion to all of us is greatly appreciated. Keep up your good work and remember, the more you teach and help, the smarter all of us become.
Thanks and I'm very happy to be able to call you Friend. :)
-
Hi Technical,
I joined this forum back on March 4, 2004. I read different posts and tried to get familiar with the members that were already here. But, the first time I had a minor problem with Avast, asked a question, you gave me the answer, your suggestion worked just fine. I appreciate your being part of this forum (soul) and just hope over continuing time that I can contribute maybe half as much as you obviously have accomplished. ;D
-
I for one am glad that you didn't chose to run, your posts are a constant source of information that we all learn from.
Yes, we do have a soul on these forums and I believe it is what makes a huge difference to the effectiveness and family atmosphere it promotes.
Congrats too on your 6000+ post, nearly got it on your birthday.
-
Hi Technical:
Sorry but I cant resist the temptation!!!!!
Congrats too on your 6000+ post, nearly got it on your birthday.
That would have been nice because it would have matched the number of candles on you cake. ;D ;D ;D
-
;D bob you make me laugh.
Congratulations of the big 6k Technical
EDIT: corrected spelling mistake
-
Technical,
you were one of the first to welcome me here (not so long ago) with help and advice. I recall you said something about the avast! family!
:)

I'm proud of that :-[
I'm becoming slave of my own words... I can't scape anymore ;D
-
Technical
Congratulations ......and, of course, thanks for all your help
Regards Phil

congrats pal ;D

Congrats again technical
Im sure you will reach 10,000 before you no it ;D

Congratulations Technical, the gang havn't left anything for me to say, they've said it all ;)

Technical - do you remember what did I tell ya ? I was right (again ;D)...
-
Technical - do you remember what did I tell ya ? I was right (again ;D)...
No, I do not remember ::)
-
And best of all, Technical... these forums are not just about avast! issues... they are for making friends and contats as well. Alwil knows that, and they approved our posts even they are not avast! related in any way sometimes...
You are our friend and we want everything to stay that way !
If you leave, I'll leave... I promise ! (dead serious)
This was my reply, this thread, page number 2... I said, these forums are among the other things, for making new friendships... that is true.
I also said, you are our friend, and we want you to stay... I think, I don't have to explain this one - everyone already showed what they think. I don't think they have to repeat it million times again and again... no need.
And, at the end.. I said, I'm gonna leave if you decide to leave, and I meant it. I would never ever said something like that in public if I didn't mean like that. It would be my shame. I was dead serious... I also said that too... ;) Although, no one would ever "cry" for me if I leave, that wasn't my inetntion to make anyone cry in the first place. I just thought, if you can leave these forum members and friends, so can I... of course, it's much better if we all stick in these forums, try to help each other with our daily problems, make new friendships (never enough friendships) etc.
Anyway, there is so much fun in these forums, it wouldn't be best idea to run away, like your topic is saying...
Cheers !

Sasha, I would cry if you left...

I got good news for ya, hes back, even though you probally know now, but Neal62 please come back :(
Neal... He helped me a lot with AVG email scanner and avast...
He always helped me. One time I complained, without reason, about an update thread.
Thinking better, I thought that his opinion was better than I.
I suppose we do not have anything 'against' each other ::)
It would be nice to see his comming back 8)
