For the most part I'm a loner, which at times can make me seem a little cold.  I truly enjoy giving help, I like the occasional new piece of knowledge or solving that tricky issue.  The variety, breaks many a dull day.  We have a great community here as well, so that helps a lot.

What is written or the symbol? I won't get surprised if you say "SMF Support".

QuoteHow do you dress? One leg at a time, one arm at a time.  How do you dress?

I'm sure question didn't mean that, lol.

As I asked Aaron... in what direction would you like to see SMF go in the next year/3 years/5 years?

Quote from: Tenma on March 13, 2009, 10:06:08 AMWhat is written or the symbol? I won't get surprised if you say "SMF Support".

On my chest a golden runic symbol, if you know WH40K you'll recognize it as an Eldar symbol.  On my shoulder a dragon, I was born in the year of the dragon and have always liked them.

Ha, yes I'm sure that's not what they meant by the question

As I'm a support person, my focus is on support.  I'd like it to be easier to use, but it's hard as it's quite easy now.  So I hope that general knowledge of the software is known by it's users by then.  So basic php and html is better understood with the ability for most administrators to troubleshoot their own issues, as it become second nature to those using the internet.

Sounds good to me

QuoteHow do you sleep? With my eyes closed! How do you sleep??

With my eyes WIDE open and staring dead ahead, a HUGE grin over my face, manic laughter suddenly every 15 - 20 minutes.

Rammstein is the s**t!!!

Is it pronounced "Rum Bar" or "Roomba with a silent r"?

Are you calling him a robot vacuum?

That's exactly what I always think of when I read his name...

For some strange reason, I can't think of anything but rum when I see Rumbaar on the forum

I guess we'll never know

I guess not...

It is pronounced as it's spelt.  So RumBar.  As in Rum the alcohol and Bar as in a place you get alcohol from.

is it a long aaaa sound? Because it's baar not bar, and that's confusing me.

It's a short sound

RUM bar or rum BAR?

POST ban or Post BAN?!

"Post BAN" should be "post BAN".

Read your phonics book!

ha!, Say the word RUM, then say the word BAR.  Join them together and you'll have your answer.  But I've attached a recording that might help

OMG YOU HAVE AN AWESOME VOICE

lol, you're just used to those North American's

You sound like you're saying "Rumba" cause I'm so used to Americans emphasising Rs LOL

Well originally the name grew from the music festival called Rumba, that was on at the time I first came online.

LOL I so knew that. Not really.

Nah, you have an awesome voice . Love it!

That's what I was asking! The emphasis is on the RUM and I agree with Jade

LMFAO


See Rumbaar, even the guys love you LMFAO

ha *blush*.  It can be pronounces like the Dance as well   But I've been called many names.

I'm guessing we aren't allowed to use any names above PG-13 in here...
