    Thank you (again)

    Gonna be honest, $2185 is far more than I expected to get from that GoFundMe.

    And frankly, typing out the words "thank you" feels just way too... Simple? Condescending... ish? Just plain not enough?

    I'll just lay it all out.

    I do not have a car.

    I cannot get to and from work.

    I am more or less broke due to low paying job and so many bills.

    Due to credit issues, I do not qualify for any emergency loans.

    My car was uninsured due to the company I had deciding not to tell me there was an issue with payment and just... cancelled it. Cause why not at this point.

    I can't win

    Got in an accident.

    Car's completely fucked.

    I'm fine, I think. Hospital right now. But I seem ok by EMS standards.

    Woulda been better if I had bit it, frankly. Cause now not only am I broke, I now have no car.

    ...I just want it to end. Please?

    I can't take much more. I can't.

    2024, about as good as 2023. Which was sh!t.

    Screw 2023.

    Miserable year for me.

    Started with an asshole walmart employee getting me fired, to me being exhausted with two jobs, which didn't last so back to one job, to me barely being able to get by on my meager paychecks.

    And on top of that, my severe eczema was persistent and I was unable to find a solution because... No money and so on.

    Spare a dime for your Lurker

    Hello Legion, it's been awhile, hasn't it?

    I've never been good at this kinda thing, and while I could go on about my antics as of late, I won't and will just come out and say it.

Dear Skype: · 7:53am Aug 11th, 2013

Dear Skype:

Your program sucks balls.

I love your program.
I love how it takes 5 minutes to load up.
I love how it insists I'm offline, when in reality, I have a full fucking connection.
I love how it like to delay any and all possible messages I get by, if not a day, then at least an hour.
I love how it deletes my contacts on occasion and forces me to re add them.
I love when it deletes conversations on a whim.
I love how loading a single message gives it a heart attack.
I love your Auto Correct feature... I really love that thing.
I just loooove how it insists it knows the right way I want to spell a word.
I even love how it insists it knows what word I'm going to type next.
But do you know what I love most of all?
I love how it corrects my word while I'm still typing it. Oh yes. I just loooooooove that bit.

In fact... I doubt there is a soul alive who'd think it was built by a bunch of mentally depraved and inbred sub-human monkeys! Nope. Not. One. Soul.

Yessir... I hope you never change. Because, really, there's nothing to change. You work juuuuuust fiiiiiine. Not a single problem in sight! How many can say that, eh?


Your forced faithful user:

P.S. If you believed any of that... Go jump off of a cliff.

It gets even better on Windows 8 :pinkiecrazy:

I don't even...

~Skeeter The Lurker

I have never had a problem with skype. I've only had it for about 5 months now.

1276901

That statement jinxed it. Crash in 5, 4, 3, 2...

~Skeeter The Lurker

1276902 Nope sun u fayll trie agn l8tr

Skeets, think of it this way: at least you don't have to use it on a ten year old computer. That's like trying to get a rock to sex a potato and create a calculator. :rainbowlaugh:

mine does....none of that...

You know you can turn it off in settings right? :ajbemused: Speaking of settings anyone got the new equestrian font? I want it so I can put it on my skype. :twilightsmile:

Funny because I only have 2 of those issues and they aren't even that annoying.

Then turn off autocorrect. :unsuresweetie:

Perhaps it's not Skype that's the problem. Perhaps the problem here is your attitude.
Sarcasm through text isn't appreciated.

... You're not very bright, are you?

~Skeeter The Lurker

What version of Skype do you have?? :rainbowderp:

I didn't even know Skype was even capable of this Artificial Intelligence!

1276989

Mine just hates me.

~Skeeter The Lurker

Skype just... isn't good. Steam actually has instant-messaging, not 'oh, wait five fucking minutes' messaging. Get that shit.

I am having none of these problems.

I think someone just fucked around in your settings.

Perhaps it's not skype, but the mobile device you're using instead. I've never even heard of any of these problems with desktop/laptops. :rainbowlaugh: Worst those have is freezing because it suddenly uses more memory than it's allotted due to the animated ads.

skyep is a fgt

I can't use skype with my GeForce video card as it'll crash when starting with a 100% failure rate. Something to do with incompatibility issues. If I ever use the program, it requires that I go into the nvidia settings and switch to my motherboard's integrated graphics processor. Not that I use these programs to talk to others too much (because they're a stone's throw away from me), there are other alternatives such as Steam, Google Hangout, etc. assuming they would serve the intended purpose.

Skeeter did you ever try a reinstall cause Ive never had any of these issues.:rainbowderp:

1277145 Sounds like a driver issue which NVidia driver are you using im using 320.18

1276912 Ummm ask Knighty for that, cause I think its already built in to Windows just has a funny name.

Topkek
you can turn off autocorrect, which will solve about ten of your other problems
also, the only problem i ever had was it kept crashing for about a week, then it fixed itself
sucks to be you, skeety-kins

1277151 Thanks! It legitimately works now. I should've known better...my driver version was 285.80. Now it's 320.49.

I feel your pain. Well, only part of it. My main problem is loading time and memory usage, which Skype rapes with a garden hose.

Poor Skeeter... That's why I'm one of the few people who likes Linux's version of skype, even though it looks old and shitty, it works.

1277163
I will and tell him you suggested it. I actually prefer NOT to bother knighty with piddly stuff. He's the reason the site exists in the first place and a big reason it stays up.
