The Return...

[syzygy]

...of syzygy. i've been grounded and therefore offline for 3 months, but now that i'm in college, i'm off the hook and online with my new computer =D

really wish i could go on continuum without my computer beeping like hell, something i plan to fix very soon. i've had lots of ideas as to why it beeps. my first thought was that it was overheating, but i ruled that out after i took of a side and it still kept beeping. then i thought it was being overworked; nothing against that so far. a zh i talked to said that my college connection could be a possibility. and a squadmate thought my computer was warning me that it was going to blow up.

anywho, if anyone's ever dealt with something like this before, or is just reeeally knowledgeable about computers, your feedback would be much appreciated.

You got grounded when you're college age?

wlcome back and i've never been grounded (mum dosnt belive it works )

[syzygy]

lol, yes i have fatherly problems. my most common punishments were for getting a C on my report card--yes, a C. punishments double with every extra C. D's and F's i just kept hidden, if u will this punishment has a long history, tho...(flashback time)

it all started when my bio teacher--let's call him V--wanted everyone to go on a class trip. at the time, there were two trips he was talking about, the educational one that the principal set up especially for us bio II AP kids, and the fun one that V set up. at first i wanted to attend both, but other issues got me into not wanting to go on either.

this got V concerned, and already half my teachers had filled out the permission slip, and my mom knew about the trip. my mom wanted me to go, but my personal reasons prompted me to keep saying "i just don't want to go."

V made a call home to see if he could find out y i didn't want to go. sadly, my dad answered the phone. while they were talking, another teacher--let's call him S--said he overheard that my parents didn't want me to go. S was nearby when i merely told V i didn't want to go. naturally, my dad would rather believe S's rumor than me, so he called me a liar. i know i didn't say what S thought, so i called my dad a liar...hence punishment. he looked like this, color and all and sentenced me to "no computer for the rest of the year."

now that u know the background, can we pleeeeeease solve the beeping?!

[Verthanthi]

haha you still had to fill out permission slips for field trips.

Welcome back

Aren't you more likely to play this game if you're grounded?

[syzygy]

verth: uhh, high school, ya
zeus: 'splain

either way, i can't play without my computer beeping loud enough to be heard 2 dorms down--and that's annoying to be right next to it...plus, for some reason, my computer won't gimme sound for the game, whether i check the options or the sound volume.

can anyone find a reason for the beep? if u wanna hear it, come to rutgers new brunswick

Well if you're grounded you're stuck inside, as opposed to going outside where its a lot harder to play subspace
