About Me

I came across my screenname as a childhood friend always called me Darren ever since I was little. He started adding the mysterious part because I was very quiet and liked to keep to myself to think.

I've been using Ubuntu since I was given a CD with 7.10. I used straight Ubuntu with a few modifications till Lubuntu came into existence. I have proudly used it ever since.

Socially

I have very little time other then attending classes, working full-time and being a member of several clubs. I also practice Karate and train for distance races.

Professionally

Currently I am a manager for a catering and restaurant company. I oversee students and deal with everything that comes with them. It is very stressful sometimes, but also very rewarding.

Ubuntu Participation

Helping people by giving advice about a problem in IRC, and by helping through Ubuntuforums. I also have several Linux users in the community that I help regularly.

Ubuntu Forums

At the moment, I tend to post rather erratically on the forums, but try to help out in the Absolute Beginners board whenever I think I have something useful to contribute. I've been on the forums since 2008.

Internet Relay Chat

My registered IRC nickname is mysteriousdarren. I am looking forward to getting to know the Ubuntu community members better through this medium. I am usually present in the following channels:

• #kubuntu

  #kubuntu-offtopic

  ##linux

  #lubuntu

  #lubuntu-offtopic

  #ubuntu

  #ubuntu-beginners

  #ubuntuforums

  #ubuntu-montana

  #ubuntu-offtopic

  #ubuntu-youth

  #xubuntu

  #xubuntu-offtopic

Linux User Group (LUG)

I do not attend any LUG's currently, the current ones that I know of are a great distance away. I have a small group of friends that get together instead.

Goals For The Future

1. Continue to help beginners by posting in Ubuntuforums
2. Continue to assist on IRC.
3. Help further the use of Ubuntu and Linux.
4. Eventual Ubuntu Membership.
