Santa's Ghetto 2006, by knox on Nov 15, 2006 10:22:48 GMT 1, stayed up till 2am and woke up for work at 6am every single day last week
Thats far more commitment than I'm showing here. I'll check every half hour or so between 9-5 but i'm not giving up my life for this. That said I was at a gig last night and got a mild panic and had to ring my flatmate to get him to refresh for me.

Santa's Ghetto 2006, by Ågent ßacardi on Nov 15, 2006 10:25:20 GMT 1, every morning i think its gonna be today otherwise i wouldnt be sat here! guess if you give it a miss for a day then the print will go up and then you'd curl up into a very small ball and weep...
This excruciating ritual has already got me curling up into a very sad ball and weeping

Santa's Ghetto 2006, by sputnikeye on Nov 15, 2006 10:30:00 GMT 1, it's paradoxical that the very print we're waiting for symbolises what we are doing, the hunt, the waiting for the prey, the stalking of the site, to strike the refresh button at the right time...to curl up in a ball and bawl............

Santa's Ghetto 2006, by mcnuts on Nov 15, 2006 10:45:08 GMT 1, is that feel less or more hope? or perhaps the feeling is a bit of delusion? Disconnect with the real world? Social deprivation? Or perhaps that’s just me.
More and more, I feel it is my face which should be superimposed over the monkey in Laugh Now.
Perhaps that’s the next print:
– a monkey at a keyboard hitting refresh looking at a computer screen and on that screen a picture of a banana that he desires. The picture could be a side view or just of his back...
Hell, if I could do a stencil, I’d take my own stab at it 
I guess sorta like this clip art...

Pop3 mail means you usually have to 'pop' or click send/receive on your mail program. SMTP is where it appears straightaway. Pop3 progs usually schedule a send/receive... say every 5 minutes. Look up your options menu

I could choose IMAP or EXCHANGE but don't know if that would work.

I wouldnt go messing with your options at this stage. Instead test your system. Either send an email to yourself and see how long it takes to arrive. Actually a better test is this - if you have more than one email account set up on say outlook. Send from one account to another and see how long it takes to arrive.

Santa's Ghetto 2006, by mido on Nov 15, 2006 11:48:53 GMT 1, is this the saddest thread ever?
and how sad are all you people for going on and on and on about all this? This used to be an interesting forum, now it's just so weak.
Do you even remember what the print might look like?

who knows?
why care?? It's a piece of paper....
I think it would be great if POW let you all order this print then actually sent you 'I can't believe you morons buy this shit' instead. Wouldn't that be apt?
but seriously...... does anyone think it WILL be today? I know every day we have been saying it will be today everyday. Again, this really is liek waiting for Godot isn't it?

That's like saying Banksy's original street art is just a bit of paint on a wall.

Tell me honestly you aren't hitting refresh or don't have you credit card at the ready? With the Banksy's you have already sold on Ebay (prints and photos) I would think it was in your best capitalist interest to be part of the R*Fresh Army?

Methinks you're a little harsh Martin
Who knows = POW
Who cares, it's a piece of paper = this forum obviously cares, it's a piece of art ;D
Not sure that labeling all the people that want this print Morons is gonna get you many brownie points.
Lots of new fans Martin, they don't have the benefit of your wisdom and knowledge perhaps, but remember the passion for Banksy you used to have ? well these lot have it in buckets.. plus RSI.. maybe the next charity auction should be for people with RSI

prove me wrong......
It may not be high brow discussions of the meaning of the art. What it is, is a group of people who are all after the new Banksy. It may be to add to collections, as investments or first time buys. Because of the success and profile of Banksy recently it has become a little harder to get you hands on one. The first one I bought I stumbled upon POW and got one first time. If I knew it was this hard I may not have bothered. But now I'm hooked. All we are doing is having some banter to pass the time.
Also to second the earlier point about you making gains off Banksy's work...I bought one of your photos from you off ebay. It was pretty good. There you go a compliment now stop being a tit.
This rant has taken me passed the normal refresh threshold.

The Tongue...good man by the way...
An opinion is something like 'I don't like cheese as its smells'
An insult is to go onto a cheese lovers thread and say 'you are idiots for liking cheese'
Martin is entitled to his thoughts and fair play to him but he knows that if he comes on here and insults people then to expect a response. Its a big forum and he is free to discuss whatever he likes.
After all this is over lets all have a big hug and compare cock sizes. And ladies you can compare breasts...I'm not discriminating like Mike Newell.

Santa's Ghetto 2006, by mido on Nov 15, 2006 13:05:15 GMT 1, nope genuinely not flaming, or drunk, or ranting - was 'working' until 4am, got up at 10am. Not worried if I miss a print. have been out (with no internet access) for 6 days of 8 recently. I have 100 pieces of voluntary work that keep me busy. If I am around when trolleys goes online then fine (that is one of the few I like), if not then no worries.
you know little about me. & what's capitalism got to do with it? I'm clearly talking about the dullness of the constant speculation and people who pretend they know things when they don't (i'm NOT talking about silky here)
