Hello everyone! I'm Andrea and I'm excited to learn more with you!

 

Hello, Andrea. Welcome to Edugeek. Plenty going on here, more than only the technical stuff!

 

[atkins]

Hi all!

 

I'm an ICT Technician based in the midlands

 

Day to day I support an 800ish 1 to 1 iPad deployment, along with a couple hundred windows machines and laptops and then a handful of printers on top

 

Outside of work I'm an avid photographer and LAN party engineer/host/volunteer - there's a pretty niche joy in setting up a temporary infrastructure capable of handing a few thousand users for it to be ripped down a couple of days later!

 

Currently looking to further my knowledge when it comes to network infrastructure (mainly practicing with the use of a pretty hefty homelab, courtesy of the guys/gals over at /r/homelab)

 

My homelab at the moment consists of a couple of Dell r620's, running a few windows servers, windows clients, a couple of linux boxes - one of which for my Unifi AP controller, a pfSense instance, and a separate r620 loaded with docker images for gameservers

 

See you all around!

If that’s the quickest ever earned star on here, I’ll take that crown [emoji23][emoji1357][emoji1303]

So I suppose I have not been 100% polite because I have already done a post over in that organizing an office thread.

 

And my age must be showing because I was looking for an intro place and couldn't find it --- I mean this is the "General" sub-forum and I sure didn't see that as I was scrolling up and down that menu of sub-forms.

 

It is fun to blame all those careless types of happenings on age.

 

Another problem I have is I've never been big on dishing out much information on who I am, as if anyone would really care, anyway. But I do tend to try and limit that sort of information online, even on a friendly discussion platform. This is a friendly bunch of folks here, yes?

 

Oh yes, one big secret I'll share with you --- I love asking leading questions.

[6Foot2]

No problem with keeping some information back. I did it because I didn't want my school to find my posts. Even though I am no longer working, I still don't want them (my posts) found. One of my posts was found (a LONG time ago now) and a LOT of trouble ensued.

 

Others will have their own thoughts.

 

Friendly? Yes, it's very friendly here. However, you will have to develop a tolerance for corny jokes if you visit one or two of the threads...

 

[RetiredBut]

May I ask if it is possible to remove that regional identifying image I see under my 'Member' thingy and User ID?

 

Sorry I am taking advantage of the situation in this thread, but that is exactly the sort of thing I meant about not sharing information. It seems sort of _ _ _ well, sorry _ _ _ can it be removed?

Well they are still in the process of moving the forum to a new platform, so might not be something that can be done at present
