CP, do a refresh on your Bots sig..You don't have 26 points anymore but sport a nice respectable 125 or so....I am proud of you mate!!!!!!;)

How the hell did I get soo many points? BTW, it doesn't refresh??

Click the signatures tab under the identification section on the left side of HWBot home page. You will then see a bunch of sigs including two of the one you are currently using at the top of the page. The top one will be one you are currently using and the other one that is stored on the remote signature host. Click the force a refresh. Now here is where it gets stupid. For me it refreshed the top sig but not the bottom one. Which ever one it didn't refresh right click that image, and choose "view image" if you are using Firefox. Afterwards, press CTRL+F5 to force a refresh on the image that is being viewed in another tab. If you are using Google Chrome you will have to right click the image, then copy image url and paste it in a new tab and then do the Ctrl + F5 trick. If using Explorer, right click the image, then properties and copy the url within it and paste in new tab. Then Ctrl + F5.

Oh don't think I never got bitched at. Its a fine balancing act. At times I will admit I was too involved in the computer than the girl and I heard about it sometimes. But for the most part I am blessed for the relationship I have and the girl doesn't mind it but I do know some folks that their girls are like the soup Nazi!

You know you are an overclockaholic when...

You are at work and you rush to finish or get caught up only so you have free time to check the forums.

Or when you go to the rest room to do your daily dispatching of your troops and the first thing you check is to see if you brought your phone to browse the forums while the nukes are getting launched.

Or when ....... I'll get a few more later.
