hello!
im on work experience atm, and will be for the next 2 weeks. since im only allowed to go on web sites at my lunch break, i cant talk on irc!
but i can still talk through good ol' multiplay forums :D
ALSO
i would like to say sorry, for all the posting i have been doing
you see when i have finished all the work they give me, i get 10 - 15 mins or so spare, so i just post :P

Steadders
15th October 2002, 17:25
yea, they do that to me a lot.
since apart from school shirts i never wear shirts or ties, i had to order a couple from littlewoods.
i found one black shirt that i wore today, and mondays and fridays are "casual days" so lucky for me the delivery came today :) other wise i would have been stuck wearing the same clothes everyday :|

Steadders
22nd October 2002, 16:24
*sigh*

would that be 1 calorie then?
Noodleman
22nd October 2002, 16:48

BaDDaSS
22nd October 2002, 17:58

07092034172 p 3 (p is a pause)
Steadders
23rd October 2002, 12:32

/me is tempted to spam j00 with "I LIKE PIE"
how many fax's can an exchange server send in an hour... *ponders* ;)
Cheez
23rd October 2002, 13:36
the question is more "how many faxes can a fax machine recieve in an hour"
Eskimo
23rd October 2002, 13:55
question is.. well 5tead ever get enough skillz to send a fax.
Eskimo
23rd October 2002, 13:56
n00dle... why is there a grey square on your pot n00dle ava when its says n00dle accross it....?
Noodleman
23rd October 2002, 14:48
because I have no gif file skilz.
And tbh, I havent got a f00king clue.. :rolleyes:
It's not there in the frame..
/me goes to play with the gif file again.
Steadders
23rd October 2002, 16:06
at my office all the faxes are recieved like an email, with a sender etc, that way they can be forwarded and saved and deleted etc
v.cleaver
and i tryed at least 10 times to send that fax, then put the dam thing on auto, so i can only asume it either wasted the fax machines memory, or it sent.

You'll find theres a pause or P button. if not then just wait till the line is picked up, then press 3
Noodleman
25th October 2002, 09:37
so thats kinda crap then when yur gonna fax from a server..
:rolleyes:
:p: :D
BaDDaSS
25th October 2002, 11:44
Well no, cos it does accept a straight fax, its just quicker if you use pause3
Steadders
25th October 2002, 11:53
