When do you know you're a PA geek...
...when you try to type in an image link and type the extension .jgp instead of .jpg (as it just happened to me 2 minutes ago  ).
Let's make a list? :/
(move to right forum please, sorry 'bout that)

Re: When do you know you're a PA geek...
Does it make me geek when, at first, I didn't notice the difference between .jgp and .jpg in your post. And now, one day later I saw the difference.

Re: When do you know you're a PA geek...
I'm one of the few people I know irl who can get out of bed and on my PC within 20 seconds of my phone alarm going off.
And who does it every time my phone goes off to wake me up, and every time I wake up normally anyway

Well, the 'official' name of those scans are Jump gate Probes (JGP), whereas a JPEG is obviously JPG.
And yes, i have done the same thing. I remember uploading some 120 images from a pubcrawl or whatnot once, and i had to manually rename them (iirc it didnt like capitals), and all 120 had .jgp afterwards. Took me bloody ages to work out why they wouldnt work .

Re: When do you know you're a PA geek...
Perhaps you know when your A PA geek when (ive bin told this has happend from members not myself) when having sex there computer near by sounds the hostile trigger. (for example in the old days ToT was a prime example, f you said the word 'incoming' or 'hostile' you would get a huge shout through your speakers) the person would then throw his girlfriend off and run to his PC
Thats when you know your a PA geek ^^

Replace girlfriend with Right/Left hand then you have a REAL pa geek. Proper geeks don't have girlfriends.

Re: When do you know you're a PA geek...
You're a PA geek when you....
Choose the comfort of your chair while staring at a monitor above that of your own bed.
Choose to wake up in the middle of the night for someone you've never seen.
Choose to be caffeine-addicted and sleep deprivated
Choose to masturbate over battlereports
Choose to slowly be driven impotent.
Choose to play Planetarion.

Re: When do you know you're a PA geek...
Planetariotting
Choose life.
Choose your race. Choose a fleet. Choose an alliance. Choose a big ****ing load of distorters, choose finance centres, security centres and all your factories. Choose whether or not you want to land on seventeen fleets of defence against
you're pathetic 200 ship fleet. Choose apathay toward your fellow human beings, choose saying stupid things to people over a glorified chat client like 'ftw' and 'omgwtfpwned'. Choose waking up at 3am to send a number of electrical signals down a wire that tell a few numbers on an online database to move to another location in the database. Choose losing your job because you had to stay up and DC all night because some bloke you've never met is going to lose asteroids. Choose failing your exams, and spiralling into a pit of self-loathing and feelings of general worthlessness, all the while the real world around you continues to disintegrate and all you have left is the fact that you managed to finish top 10 in an online spreadsheet, and win a free go at it in the never ending cycle that is PA.
I chose not to choose life. I chose Planetarion.

Re: When do you know you're a PA geek...
well, for a starters, i saw the topic name and looked in.
As for the comment proper PA geeks don't have GF's, yes they do, they just get owned by them and shouted at until they go in a sulk and ban you from using a PC in their presence.
Also Appocomaster, I can join that club. first thing I do when I wake up is look at my computer which is always on. The second thing I do is get back in to bed and watch my monitor.
