You do realize this forum is primarily for Gentoo support?

LOL nope. I was just looking for a forum and found this one to be one of the first ones listed on a search engine. I went strait for the "off the wall" catagory and feel quite at home here.

Yeah. Grab a Knoppix LiveCD and try it out. If you like it, install Gentoo. >^..^<

I figure that a lot of us "Off the wall" types don't spend too much time in the other forums asking for support or helping with it, but I think that it would be a bit odd to be here and not even be a Gentoo user...

Hmm. Most of the people that spring to mind as not appearing to be Gentoo users are trolls...

Moved from Off the Wall.

Flattered, I'm sure.Now the logorrhoid of the planet gather in OTW because the Google ranking appeals to them? At some point we'll have to split the entire forum and drop OTW somewhere in mid-Atlantic...

Wow, I had to look that one up at Google because Dictionary.com wouldn't tell me what it meant without my registering...

Some of us at OTW do post in other forums once in a while you know... ;)

postcount++ :P

I think these forums are getting increasingly popular for its Off The Wall section. I for one, find myself posting there quite a bit.

EDIT: Here is a prime example:

Well, I make it 5, but even so, that's kinda weird...

Time for a stronger notice on the front page as to what this place is all about?
