How much do you do it?

I bot whenever I sit at my system. I watch TV while I bot. I have a 1200 sq ft house, maybe bigger, I can't remember. It was built back in the 60s by some drunk construction workers for my grandparents. My electric bill during the summer runs about $500/mo and in the winter about $300/mo. My power company doubles their rates in the summer. With all appliances being used normally, and the four laptops and two desktops running almost 24/7, that's what it comes out to be.

All in all, I bot about 8 hrs a day while I babysit my bots and do some hand work just to break up the bot look.

Your not a CRAPHAT? Then tell me what P-Company event did you find the toughest ?

I'm not P-Company, I'm Delta Company Fire Support, 4th Battalion Royal Regiment of Scotland also known as "The Highlanders".

Wherever you got P Company from.. Don't be jealous cause you'll never know what its like to have a steady income!
 
600 Watts a month should cost about 40 dollars left on 24/7.

A 600 Watt PSU uses about .6 kWh, so .6 running 24/7 = 432 kW.

This depends on your supplier now, look at your electricity bill, find the kilowatt per hour rate (or call them and ask).

$0.1 x 432 = $43.2 running 24/7 at full usage (which we know will not be the case).

Don't forget to factor in your monitor, bubblers (oops wrong forum) or anything else if looking for a definitive answer, ;-).

I am seriously having my dought's you are in the Army after your latest post, because you don't seem to know what a HAT is or P-Company. However This may because you are a RED ARSE and might be a little wet behind the ears.

A "HAT" is a derogatory term used by member's of the Parachute Regiment to describe other unit's of the British Army.
"P-Company" is the second most physically demanding course in the British Army, the first being Special Forces Selection. HAT Regiments do not do P-Company because they weak.

What Manner Of Men Are These
That Wear The Maroon Beret

They are firstly all volunteers and are toughened by physical training. As a result they have infectious optimism and that offensive eagerness which comes from well-being. They have 'jumped' from the air and by doing so have conquered fear.

Their duty lies in the van of the battle. They are proud of this honour. They have the highest standards in all things whether it be skill in battle or smartness in the execution of all peace time duties. They are in fact - men apart - every man an emperor.

Of all the factors, which make for success in battle, the spirit of the warrior is the most decisive. That spirit will be found in full measure in the men who wear the maroon beret

When I was in training and my first few months in Battalion until the new bunch came in, I was called a "Crap Hat" which meant someone who wears the cap before they have passed off the square and earned the right to wear their regiment head dress also to signify the new guys in Battalion, I know fine what P Company is and we called the Paras "Hats" High Altitude Targets. I've never gotten on with para's for the main reason being, you para's think that you are "Elite", your training is harder than ours I will give you that but you no longer jump, you have nothing that makes you "Elite" its just self procalimed

I'll give you a little insight to what I saw of them in training, we set up an OP near the CFT Point about 8 Miles from Camp (ITC Catterick) we were on Tac 2 at the time, the para's came in later on after we had been there for about 5 hours, it was still light because we left camp at 10 and tabbed out (Took us about an hour and 20 minutes). 1 Section was first to move in and we kept them there for 12 hours before 2 Section relieved them. (We were broken down into 3 sections instead of 4) We patrolled out about 10 at night and it was pretty dark then, we had about a 2 mile patrol before we actually reached our OP point and we knew para's had moved in north of our position because we had been informed earlier on in the day (They were in between our PB and OP) and we had to patrol past there harbour area. As we come in all you can see from the Para's harbour area is white light being flashed about everywhere, we could also hear them talking to each other as we went by them and the worst part is some of them were smoking and when they realised we were going past opened fire on us, now you call yourself elites.. yet.. for elites that is very poor battle discipline, even for recruits, you would expect a lot more.

I've seen several cases like that also I know its not the same in battalion as it is in training going about bracing up, marching about and calling cpl a cpl because you actually become friends with them. You para's never pay respect to the rank you think "ah right he's not a para screw em" you "elites" don't pay respect to the rank, not the cap badge or person because you think your better but we were always taught respect the rank.

In my opinion you guys aren't elite, your the people who have a big house and a fancy car but can barley manage in expenses and look down on the others who are just middle class trying to act better than them.

*Edit*

Meant to say I have saw better battle discipline from a bunch of cadets running around ITC's backdoor area.

I agree with you on the point that we don't give to other Ranks respect, but then again they haven't done P-Company and therefore don't deserve any respect.
The reason our Joe's smoke in harbour areas is that no one in their rights minds would take us on lol.
 
24/7, can't ever get enough. If I could I would add another day to the week so that I can bot.

You could easily get yourself onto P-Company in Battalion and you would sit P-Company at ITC Catterick and they still wouldn't show respect of ranks, if you were our enemy for Tac 2, we would of harresed you constantly making you bug out plus we had a PB everyone is jealous of anyone who has a PB cause Harbour Areas are shiteee!!!!
 
What have you been smoking? HAT. Are you saying that member's of the highlander's can book themselves onto P-Company ? are you insane?
You're not Airborne therefore you cant do P-Company.
Why are you going on about TAC EX'S at catterick? are you still at ITC Catterick? youre not only a HAT but a Crow as well. lol

Out of interest what is your mile and a half time.
 
Are you mental, that's the question. You can do P-Company, we aren't just Armoured Infantry because we chop and change all the time due to operation requirements for example 2 Scots has recently reverted back from 16th Air Assault Brigade. You can do any course in Battalion. Catterick and Tac Ex's are the only time I have had the pleasure of seeing the so called "Elites" in action. I'm nae a crow. I've been in Battalion for a year. My mile and a half runtime is 8.31, what's yours old timer?
 
You are a Crow you've only been in a year lol. My mile and a half time is 7.45, Did a 10 miler 50lbs this morning in 1hr 43 had 30 mins break then a 2 miler in 17.50 the snow slowed me down a bit lol. Not bad for an Old timer.
2 Scots are also stinking HATS and are pure pish they where there to support the Sky Gods not fight along side.
Dam you HATS bite.

Maybe you show go and track bash your warrior.

That's alright for an ol' man i'll give you but only 22kgs? Your old age must be slowing you down your not carrying that much ;) haha I can't say too much I ain't the best tabber in the world to be truthfully honest.

Obviously you'll continue to think that your regiment is better than mine, everyone does it, even the rifles think they are good now they are pish, just like the para's ;), it's 5 Scots who are normally the 16th Air Assault Brigade and if you read in the paper, they dropped into a Taliban Stronghold and scared em' off, something I doubt the para's would do just to get a fight with the Taliban. :P

I would go play with the warriors but you see... They took our tanks for upcoming operational requirements and put us to Light Role. :(
 
I'm only winding you up m8 just a bit of inter regimental banter. :)
Stay Safe.

Even with a 1050w PSU the electricity bill is still not too bad.

I put them on 24/7 because I'm not that fussed if they get banned.

I would be a little disappointed but I'd quickly use my GB Lifetime subscription to get over it.
