Thatā€™s really bad Wyv. I canā€™t believe parents are doing that.

Alsoā€¦ where are the young people? On all the forums that I visit, itā€™s normally older people who are active on the forums.

I think i am one of the youngest ones here, and the only reason i have so much time is because this business is going under and no jobs are coming in.

I was just thinking this today, but in the ā€œgame journalistā€ sense.

Does anyone know of any young 'uns (in South Africa, but elsewhere as well) that are starting up their own sites to write about games and stuff?

Back in my day weā€™d call it a blog. Not sure what the whippersnappers heading out of high school would call it nowadays.

Still gets me when they talk about wifi as beeing the internet.

Ask someone here at work if he had a wisp or adsl line and he tuned me he had wifi. Wanted to facepalm so hard.

Youā€™ve just got to ask the right questions.

When I get asked why the wifi isnā€™t working, it could be:

  1. The wifi really isnā€™t working
  2. Generally the lines are down so no internet
  3. They canā€™t get onto the sever
