Edit via TheeMahn:
Sorry to edit your post brother, but did not realise the impact of the situation:

Akismet has protected your site from 218 spam comments already.
There are 47 comments in your spam queue right now.

I had similar issues on themelinux, the forum is 100 fold.

I would like to openly thank our admin for putting the situation under control.

I have had users ask me to remove them from the list because I sent them porn, alrighty then. I personally hate spam why would I do so? It is a gift when I send an email. Xmas is coming and the goose is getting Phat. I have only personally sent one email globally. This year will be my last email. I do not “Blow up” your phone, nor your computer.

I am a vet of Desert storm / operation provide comfort era. Today I went to work my Saturday, had a fella that bought the shop dough-nuts & never served, however appreciation was there he bought them. Well a twist to a situation, today i worked and assumed I would do the same tomorrow. The foreman told me if I tossed out a ton of parts I would not have to work Saturday. Well the joke is on me none of them do. They all knew I was oblivious to the situation, why play a joke on TheeMahn? What comes around goes around right? What fire me so I can look for a real job? lol. Hard to drop apps on a Saturday, does not mean I can not adhere to the situation at hand. I have bought a few toys

I bide my time, perhaps a day off is all I asked for; a little global impact.

Wow, what a turn of events. A job a good thing right? Been there 5 weeks 4 of which mandatory overtime including my first week there. Sure Friday no problem, get you there Friday tell you we need you Saturday as well. I am going to blow off a little steam. 4 ten hour days what I signed on for sure occasional overtime. 4 of 5 mandatory. Lets analise the situation 40 hours a regular week of work right? Sure I have it out of the way in 4 days. Does not my Friday become most ppls Saturday? Time and a half great O.K. Now we need you Saturday, my Sunday double time not a chance. Work you those kind of hours and not pay. 60 hrs a week, I am sure I have ample time to drop 3.0 When I have only one day to myself do you think I should make it a UE day?

Sorry like I said blowing off steam,

TheeMahn

I started a new physical Job Monday, second day of work today up at 4:30am for that purpose. 40 hours a week thank goodness no overtime this week. 4 ten hour days, I believe I have a final solution to what plagues me in Ultimate Edition 3.0. I plan to implement those changes Friday. I don’t like getting peoples hopes up, but perhaps we can have a release this weekend. Cross your fingers. Looks like I may also have an interview for Systems Software Engineer. Where I work currently will get a 2 weeks notice. Sometimes you got to have a job to find a job 😉

TheeMahn,

I have seen the vestige of my understanding. I have enjoyed Larry err Meister for a term of nothing less then 25 years. This is w/o note what I will enjoy:
Most users ever online were 126, on September 15, 2011 @ 11:36 pm.

We have purchased another website, will it ever end? When I speak I speak solely, not an integer of many sites. I want to congratulate my right hand man for stepping up to the plate. He has taken on his job unlike any other. Most get skittish when playing with many. That by they way is based on 5 minutes. Ultimate Edition 3.0 drops what will that number say? As the admin play with UE 3.0, I have since rebuilt it, catch this built on Goliath’s machine, and Meister is the only man to waltz the planet with what could possibly be the final product.

I do not think you caught that, I do not have or run it. Talk to Mr. Breeg about how things roll around here.

Thanks for “Clarification” Meister.

Allow me to clarify the situation with this official announcement Ultimate Edition 3.0 is now beta. The testing team has it and is hard at work making sure that we have a solid stable release coming. Many of you have been with us for awhile now realize that Theemahn post problems and information here to keep you the end-user in the loop. Until now most of his frustration rants have been confined to the forums, you now see why. Thee has stated in a past interview on Souceforge that Ultimate Edition would be on a when it is done it gets released type of schedule.

So 3.0 will be ready once the testers have given it a green light and we are all sure the stability you all know and love is there. Changes are afoot and more information will be released as details are finalized. So what can you the end-user take from all this 1. Thee has not quit. 2. Ultimate Edition is not done by a long shot. and finally point 3. Even Theemahn has his limits and needs to blow off steam. I almost forgot a important point , this is to the Facebook crowd, 3.0 is not a myth follow the forums for screenshots from our testers.

On behalf of the Ultimate Edition team

Meister.

I wrote a story to our admin, let me be bold in saying my intentions while pure have “Contemplated” hanging up at least one of my jobs. This may grab a few attentive learners. The job I wish to hang up is distro writing. I do not want you to think I am selling you out, I see many an issue & am tired of fixing such said issues. The amount of said issues have plagued me to the point where I not only dislike my job, but other jobs I possess. Sure, I am a programmer & have preached automation of said activities.

I feel my talent would to be best to spend it on automation of one in the same. While most will view this a huge error in my aspect. Rest of assured I shine when allowing me to do as devised comes w/o question. Contemplation is the topic, however stay tuned. Sorry to spew off at the head. I would not have said what I have if it does not come without cause. Let me be blunt, I have tried to not only inform others of issues, but to tell them how to fix them and greeted with cynicism. Hmm, why would I want to quit?

Why Ultimate Edition 2.6.3 the 2.6 series is based on Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04 a Long Term Support (LTS). Please allow me to quote one of our global mods kiwinsn:

Downloaded and installed like a dream….0 issues…I LOVED being able to listen to some USA radio while installing…The Mrs was also impressed…after I told her that usually all the drivers and set up needs to be done before trying to find a station to listen to.

Top marks once again, TheeMahn…I can only wonder at what we have in store if you can dropkick Unity into space….

Cheers

A little update on Ultimate Edition 3.0 progress, one of the things that was holding me back is Natty uses GTK3, so a new theme was in order:

Nothing is set in stone at this point. Please stay tuned. Only local beta testers have it at this time.

Without further a do. Enjoy Ultimate Edition 2.6.3, you can read more there.
