Position: Support Specialist


For the most part I'm a loner, which at times can make me seem a little cold.  I truly enjoy giving help, I like the occasional new piece of knowledge or solving that tricky issue.  The variety, breaks many a dull day.  We have a great community here as well, so that helps a lot.

What is written or the symbol? I won't get surprised if you say "SMF Support". :P

QuoteHow do you dress? One leg at a time, one arm at a time.  How do you dress?

I'm sure question didn't mean that, lol.

On my chest a golden runic symbol, if you know WH40K you'll recognize it as an Eldar symbol.  On my shoulder a dragon, I was born in the year of the dragon and have always liked them.

Ha, yes I'm sure that's not what they meant by the question :)

As I'm a support person, my focus is on support.  I'd like it to be easier to use, but it's hard as it's quite easy now.  So I hope that general knowledge of the software is known by it's users by then.  So basic php and html is better understood with the ability for most administrators to troubleshoot their own issues, as it become second nature to those using the internet.
