In case you don’t know already, I am an AHTP(Authorized TeamSpeak Provider) for TeamSpeak servers, a voice communication program for those of you that might not have heard of it.  I host a few TS servers at this time, I am in the motions of getting a system made so that I can easily rent/manage TS Servers out for a small fee per month, etc….

Anyway, more about that in a later post.  I posted this because they are coming out with a new program called TS3, it’s suppose to be written “From the ground up” with new features, etc.., I’m excited, can’t wait until it finally comes out.

Check it out here: TS3 http://goteamspeak.com/?page=teamspeak3

If you are interested in the current released version of TS go here: http://goteamspeak.com/?page=teamspeak2

You can also download it from their website as they reccomend it as well.  If you download it and want to test it out, go to my public TS Server.  Here is the information: IP- 74.220.193.245:8770 there is no password required at this time, hence “Public” in the name.

You may or may not have noticed but my main “Site”, tctransporter.net, has been “Closed” for the past month or so.  This is because I was planning on updating the current software or using an entirely different software all together.  For now tctransporter.net will re-direct here to the blog until I find a good solution, if I do at all.

I will try my best to keep everyone updated as soon as I figure out what I actually want to do, and will try my best to post my thoughts here more often on different topics that I have an opinion on if I don’t forget about doing so.

If you have any suggestions for what software I could use for my site, let me know, if I haven’t heard of it I’ll check it out.

I have been driving since I was 15, which then was when I could get what they called a “Permit” which means that you could legally drive a motor vehicle with your parent/guardian in the passenger seat.  With that said I am now almost 22 years old, and even though I’ve had some “Incidents” one more recent about 2 months ago for speeding… been about 2 years before this.

I said that to say this, I always try to be cautious and courteous of other drivers on the road, give my signals when turning, or changing lanes, etc… but WHY is it that when someone is “Tail Gating”, or a more “Correct” term of “Following to close to a motor vehicle”, especially mine, there is NO cop in sight, but two years ago when I was cruising down the road I got caught doing that, and since then I have changed my driving for the most part, I’m more cautious about getting too close to vehicles.  I know one reason is there is not enough patrols on the highways, and streets, which makes since, if that was the case then there wouldn’t be patrols or assistance available elsewhere.  So you can’t win at all I guess.

Well that’s all of my thoughts for this one at the moment.  Fell free to leave a comment good or bad ir you want. Thanks for reading.

There are a few things in life that just annoy me, mainly with my job as I am a “Customer Service Rep” for a call center, and I take calls for one of the largest ISPs in the US for their Internet Divison.

The first thing that annoys me about this job is the fact that some customers, seems like ALL of them, get routers and don’t know how to get it working or if one of their PCs is working and one isn’t they call and ask what is wrong, when we clearly do not know how to troubleshoot their router or network setup.

The Second thing that annoys me is when calls in more then one time in the day or past few days and NO other agent seems to know what they are doing so the customer gets mad by the time they get me, and especially if it’s an issue that we have to fix, it makes ME look bad, but depending on the issue I get it resolved right away most the time.

The third thing that annoys me, most of all, is when something like a Router messes up and the customer can surf without the router, however, the router company refers them back to us once AGAIN!!! I mean come on, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know what is going on and how to fix it, if you ask the correct questions you will get the answers that will help you know what to do or ask next.  It’s called troubleshooting, and reading documentation is a must for those that are considering getting a router, or if you have a router already and having issues, get out the CD that came with it, or the documentation, it doesn’t kill you to read it.  The Router company wouldn’t print it if they knew you wasn’t going to read it, or if it wasn’t how to do soemthing.  That goes with just about everything.  You don’t get a carpenter to fix the breaks on your car do you? I hope not.

Well I better stop before this becomes a novel.  I hope you enjoyed reading this, leave a comment good or bad.  Thanks for reading.

I have to admit, GTA:IV is the first of the series that I have played especially for Xbox360.  In fact this is one of the only 2 games that I actually own for 360, I rent the others from gamefly.com, it’s pretty cheap, only about $20 per month, and you get to keep them as long as you want.

Anyway, sorry for that offtopicness. Back to the game. At this stage I am only about 40% done with the missions on GTA, I have had this game for about 2mths now, however, I’m mainly a PC gamer, and until recently when my PC was down for over one week I haven’t made much time to play.

I like the game because it’s so free, and you don’t have to go from one mission to another, you can go from one mission to just chilling on the street running over whoever gets in your way. One good thing about free play is that if I’m getting frustrated about a mission but finally complete it I can just drive around and not have to worry about rushing to the other mission or something by a certain time… so for my opinion it’s a good game.

There is violence, of course, you can’t expect a game that has Grand, Theft, and Auto in the title not to have some kind of depiction of violence.  And before anyone has a chance to say “These games are ruining our kid’s minds”, as I don’t completely agree that games have everything to do with how violence starts, it MIGHT have a little to do with it, but most of it is how they are raised, and what happens throughout their life, etc…  Don’t get me wrong though, I’m not an expert by far on this sort of issue.  Just my thoughts on that part.

This is all I have for now.  Thanks for reading.
