Initially I had a very hard time registering for WrongPlanet.Net because of the Security Code, I followed the instructions but still kept getting denied access, so someone else had to register for me.

Anyway, my name is Andrew, i'm 24 years old, I live in Southern California, born and raised, i'm half-white, half-mexican, i love going to Conventions which i started going to two years ago, and ever since I started going to Conventions I feel I should have started attending them ages ago, it has made me love being a nerd, geek, i'm very into 80's and 90's characters, franchises, comic-book characters, franchises, TV, cartoons, overall, pop-culture stuff, things, etc.

Anymore questions feel free to ask me.

I too experienced difficulties in relation to the security code. I was unsure about whether or not spaces and the upper or lower case of letters were relevant.

Welcome c:

Yeah, luckily it only took me one try.

It isn't space sensitive, so I realized that the code should be written with no spaces....

Yeah it was really getting on my nerves, frustrating me, the security code really was driving my patience

I didn't know that. I am in England but I think in the US there are more members here. There is a good section on Science and Computers etc so if you are into that you can post there. I am into programming at the moment.

Thats true. And the competition is not just locally or nationally, it is globally. This suits the employers but not the workers.
