Coroner 0 Posted March 20, 2001 G'day all I just have to say this after reading all the flame wars on this board. I have tried XP 2428 and yes I do like it. I agree with jdulmage that XP has a lot of nice improvements over 2K. It is in my experience faster than 2K in most areas. But just because somebody disagrees with us in the forums doesn't mean he should be beaten to a pulp by a bunch of facist faced bully boys If some one wants to be a jerk let them. Why should we act like jerks by telling them so like a jerk? Please ppl try not to get too upset because someone has a different opinion than you. I don't wanna sound like I am lecturing you all but I just have had enough of the "you suck.. no you suck" dialogue which is dominating the forums. Like I said there are some drongos and silly buggers out there doesn't mean we have to act like ones in reply to them. They don't need anyhelp they're perfectly good drongos by themselves.

EddiE314 0 Posted March 20, 2001 i think its already a failed attempt, we have tried this before, i'll bet a dollar that someone comes in this thread and starts the sh1t talking flame wars again. Share this post Link to post
Coroner 0 Posted March 21, 2001 thanks jdulmage yeah i was thinking the same eddie, somebody probably will. oh well at least if they do we know they are total losers. Share this post Link to post
jdulmage 0 Posted March 21, 2001 if I see enough support like this, I would absolutely stop. I mean, me and Eddie ain't enough, but the three of us is a good start. it's just that ppl need to stop posting the stupidest things, like such and such is "lame" quote on quote.

Coroner 0 Posted March 21, 2001 yeah, saying something is lame is definitely not constructive. I also hate OS worshipping freaks, you know the ones who say their OS is the be all and end all. I use Suse Linux 7.1 Pro and Win XP at home and I LIKE BOTH OF THEM. I also have BeOS 5 and QNX and OS/2 Warp. I have used many OS and they all have good and bad points, hell I even like Mac OS. What I am saying is that no OS is the best overall, it maybe the best for you but that doesn't mean anyone who says other wise is an idiot, unless they say something is lame etc. Wow what a rant!

clutch 1 Posted March 21, 2001 I have OS/2 Warp running at work (not by choice though). ------------------ Regards, clutch Share this post Link to post

Moniker 0 Posted March 28, 2001 My opinion of the flame wars probably doesn't matter much to you guys but, here is my suggestion anyways. I would suggest that you act professional even if someone tries to draw you into a flame war. I have seen a couple of your posts where it looks like people intentionally pulled you into one. I know what are you suppose to do when you spot a troller? Let them troll. If your intrest is to keep it professional, dont let yourself be dragged into a shouting match, with no real resolution. They came in with the intention of starting a flame war. So if you don't respond they aren't getting what they want, and, will proceed to leave. This is all just IMHO of course -cheers Moniker [This message has been edited by Moniker (edited 28 March 2001).] Share this post Link to post
