I had the opportunity to meet Linus, Luke and Brandon at PAX 2014. I was so surprised on how down to earth they are. I half expected not to get the time of day from them, but they actually spoke with me for several minutes despite their (I imagine) really busy schedule. So here I am back in my hotel and I have decided to support them additionally as a Gold Contributor. I have always believed in what Linus Media Group has been doing and have been watching Linus long before he started his business. Back in the NCIX days. He has come a long way, but is still very humble and an all around nice guy. I hope to keep my contributor level up for many years to come. Keep the excellent content coming! Thanks guys!

I also got to see him host 2 videos while at the Intel booth. Nailed both of them one take each. I was in awe :). I have to admit I was a little star struck.

Well, there are a few morons to watch out for. Sometimes they just lose it.

 

Edit: I just realized I was talking to a 35 year old, even though I am only 14.

It's probably just me and my foolishness, but since I didn't notice any clear "Welcome New Members" thread, I figured this would be the best thread for such posts. ANYHOW...

 

Hi there, こにちわ　(Konnichiwa), xin chào! Apart from those being the three languages I know (though the latter two is not as fluent as English), I'd just like to say that I've been long overdue to actually join the forums, since I've been watching Linus Tech Tips on both YouTube and Twitch for ages now; guess my laziness always reigned supreme until today. ._." My name's Phú Lê Tràn (Paul Le Tran), but CooktheChef's usually what I go for on the interwebs (except for Twitter and stuff, where I just felt my real name was more appropriate). Aside from loving technology as a whole, computers, computer science, gadgets, and such, I'm just a typical, second-year college student who's specifically studying at Pomona College and double majoring in Mathematics and Economics.

 

Besides that basic information, I guess one quirky thing about me is that although I've (unfortunately) never set foot upon England, I've had an English accent all my life due to family members and how the majority of my mates are all from England. ._."

 

Pleasure to meet you all! ^-^

Welcome to Linus Tech Tips! We hope your time here is pleasant. Just one rule of thumb. Sorry, but no personal info can be listed in the signature you put in. There is a section in your profile you can put your email. And I wouldn't put the address. Somebody out there might stalk you.

OK, glad you made it. :) Welcome to LinusTechTips! We hope your experience here on this forum is a pleasant one. Just steer clear of the AMD vs Nvidia, Android vs Apple, and Intel vs AMD flame wars and you'll survive just fine. Also, take some time to read the Code of Conduct so you don't do anything stupid here.

WELL MET!

 

I'm new here, so I thought I'd say hello. My PCMR friend told me about Linus one day, and I eventually subscribed to his channel and found my way here.

Hola como estan or as in your languaje you would say: Hi how are you LTT community? My name is... nah nobody cares about that. Im 22 years old, Im from Latin America, from colombia to be more especific. The first time I saw a Linus-made video was a R9 270 review and I got amazed because of the great quality and "hilariousness" at the same time. Now I watch at least a video everyday, and im suscribed to all his channels. Ive learnt so much and I encouraged to change my mind from buying a console (xbox 360, PS3... those things lol) and get piece by piece a gaming rig because of his videos and from another youtubers as well. thank godness I did :D

I was a "peasant" most of my gamer lifetime, from like 6 yrs old until now. I owned a NES, a PSX one, a PS2 and I played on veeeeeery low end PCs (pentium 2, 3 and those AMD ye olde giant processors wich I cant remember to name) and actually I have a PC (not a so decent one but it is what I could get here) I work repairing, maintaining PC's, I fix some tablets as well and I do some stuff... but that is not too interesting for you all tough.

I hope to have a great time and make some friends (im kind of lonely when I play games online) and learn even more and..... Im so excited!!!

PD: Please guys, PLEASE forgive my grammar, vocabulary, punctuation, spell, mispell, bad jokes... My english (its not my native languaje, see above) is not very good as you can see and I have a membrane keyboard lol

Allo Allo. 

 

Trying to be different. Haha. Anyway I'm evinta and I come from a land of long white clouds. Anyway I am a new custom built user. My dad has been getting his done by a custom computer company for years (he is scared of damaging the parts so he chooses what he wants and pays them $70 to put it together with a year warranty) but I stuck with laptops for a while. Then i became a graphic designing video maker leaving me with only desktops to go to. 
 

So leading up to building my first i went onto youtube and yeah one thing lead to another. In the past the only tech forums i joined were full of people that were believers that they were always right and not so friendly so i spent ages deciding wither or not i should join. Well you guys know the outcome... so yeah abit more about me. 

 

So my real name is Bryar, I am 28 and have mild aspergers so i am mildly autistic. I have a "open door" policy when it comes to questions about this, i believe the more people know and understand the better so feel free to ask me anything :D. I am mainly a graphic designer but started doing video after finding myself doing more videos at my church. I use the adobe CC suite and use it all on a PC i built with my younger brother Cody for just $40 over 1k NZD, watching the YT videos helped me understand what "H97" means on my motherboard and other things, the last computer i built was when i was 11 when my dad gave me two pc's to combine into one. 

 

So yeah can't wait to meet you all :)

Fyi i am Autistic (Aspergers) so sorry for any social mistakes (im mostly okay) If you want to learn more, Just ask!
