Hey People
« on: February 10, 2007, 07:56:56 PM »

Hey, not sure where exactly on any hypothetical geek scale I'd class myself.  I'm a programmer/gamer/(amatuer; and very self critical) Sci-Fi writer who's been sat behind a keyboard since I got my first Amiga aged six, so that must score me some points. =P

You don't seem to all be elitist xenophobes though, which is good, that's the one thing that's stopped me searching out a geek community in the past.

Anyways, the name's from Resident Evil, not the old movie. (Though I have been meaning to check it out for some time now, I do have a thing for vampires)  I'm currently at college in Glasgow (Scotland) studying for a degree in software development.

Look forward to chatting with you peoples!

Welcome, and first of all congrats on following (what I hope is) your dream and getting into college. Keep at it, if your strong willed it should pay off in not too long. Im new here as well, just having posted my new guy message two after yours, and hope to find some help here with web developement.

Looking forward to possible exchange,
