Ughhhh....Your punishment will be to debate with whottt for 30 days straight...
Can't I be banned instead?
I wasn't trying to be a . I was trying to provide some laughs.
Again, I apologize. It wasn't worth the trouble, that's for sure.

I totally know you were just trying to have some fun. Normally I'd have laughed it off. It was perfectly timed, which like I said, is exactly the point of the Rickroll in the first place. From that standpoint you did it as well as it can be done. Sequ is just a re if he clicked on it after we all ed about it in the thread. I just had to go back and open all the pages again that I was copying links from. Since NBA.com never got the audio LP page updated I had a bunch of windows open trying to figure out how they have the files set up so I could predict what tonight's stream was called and what folder it was in. When I saw your link I clicked it to see if I needed to bother continuing, and then I had to start over from scratch. It pissed me off, that's all. I know you didn't mean to do that.I wasn't trying to be a . I was trying to provide some laughs.

BTW, the "mission accomplished" banner in the above picture is hanging on a ship. How many US ships have fired on Iraq since that picture was taken?
It was my first Rick Roll here. I will probably refrain from doing it ever again, unless the timing is perfect and the potential for flaming is low. So probably never again.
I would be lying if I said I knew for sure.
Actually, it's an aircraft carrier. And we've launched plenty of air attacks from aircraft carriers since that picture was taken...
I want no part in a political debate!
Yeah, it's the Abe Lincoln. It's been in Washington since then; that's an awfully long way to send planes.
How did you see said apology? When he was on ignore.
I didn't complain about it in the thread, but my browser crashed too. I wasn't pleased. But if you admit to being a complete dumb ass, I'll accept your apology.
He posted up pretty quick, so I checked it. There's a link to show the individual post. I figured he might not have expected the backlash for it, and like I said, I understood that he timed it well.
Sorry, but I will not "admit to being a complete dumb ass."
I do apologize for poor timing, though.
Fixed.
Maybe it wasn't so much the timing, as it was the thread, that made it a poor choice.
Or a good choice, depending on your point of view.
Probably the first one.
looks like some people need to ran cc ccleaner on their computers
What exactly would that do, oh computer guru who can't even spell or punctuate? How do temp files keep boxes from popping up and windows from opening again?
Actually, it hasn't been in Washington since then.Yeah, it's the Abe Lincoln. It's been in Washington since then; that's an awfully long way to send planes.
However, it's true it didn't went back to Iraq.
EDIT: Actually, I'm not sure about that either...
On 13 March 2008, the USS Abraham Lincoln departed from Naval Station Everett as it embarked on a seven month deployment to the Persian Gulf. The ship returned to Naval Station Everett on October 12, 2008.
Me too. I don't mind getting rick rolled unless it won't let you close it til you have seen all the lyrics.
??Actually, it hasn't been in Washington since then.

Everett Washington is where it's based. It was deployed to the pacific* for a few months and just came back home a couple of weeks ago, IINM.
EDIT: Just saw your post that it was in the Persian gulf. Interesting.
Checked Wikipedia and they said the banner was for the end of major combat operations in Iraq, which was actually the end. I wouldn't tell the guys checking for IEDs that what they were doing wasn't "major", but it was the definition.
That picture was taken on May 1, 2003.
Since then, these are the voyages of the Abraham Lincoln:
Abraham Lincoln departed for her next voyage on 15 October 2004. The carrier was on a port call in Hong Kong when a 9.0-magnitude earthquake struck southern Asia on 26 December 2004. To help with the international relief effort and assist with search and rescue efforts already underway, the Lincoln deployed to the hard hit western coast of Sumatra to provide humanitarian assistance for Operation Unified Assistance.
In mid-January 2005 the carrier left Indonesia after the Indonesian government refused to allow fighter pilots assigned to Lincoln to conduct air patrols and training flights. By law, US carrier-based pilots must practice at least once every two to three weeks to remain "fit," otherwise they are grounded. Despite the move into international waters, Lincoln continued to provide support to the region until 4 February. During the carrier's 33 days on station, she and her strike group delivered 5.7 million pounds of relief supplies. The 17 helicopters attached to group flew 1,747 relief missions along the western coast of Sumatra. The carrier's departure coincided with the arrival of the hospital ship Mercy.
At the end of February 2006, Abraham Lincoln went underway as part of a scheduled "WestPac" deployment. The carrier returned to Naval Station Everett on 8 August 2006 and on 27 August, relocated to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard for an upkeep/overhaul period.
On 18 December 2006, the USS Abraham Lincoln left dry dock at the shipyard ahead of schedule and under budget. The Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PSNS & IMF) completed ship tank maintenance in less then half the scheduled time. In 89 days, 18 tanks were completed. The Tank Value Stream Team achieved this partnering with Ship’s Force and the Lincoln Project Team. While in dry dock, the whole ship was painted by the crew at nights and on weekends rather than waiting for contractors to do the job.[1]
The refit was completed 26 March 2007, when Rear Adm. Scott Van Buskirk assumed command of Carrier Strike Group Nine (CSG 9) from Rear Adm. Bill Goodwin.
On 13 March 2008, the USS Abraham Lincoln departed from Naval Station Everett as it embarked on a seven month deployment to the Persian Gulf. The ship returned to Naval Station Everett on October 12, 2008.
It's all good. I was just
dude I fix computers for living
I do not write for a living
props
temp files are where alot of spywhere and virus start
oh great one since you know how to spell
because spelling is everything in life
I'm going to bump this thread one day, when it's all clear.
And "alot of spywhere and virus" has exactly what to do with a Rickroll, which disables the alt+F4 option and opens up browser windows and popups?
The only thing you need to work on getting fixed is yourself.
