(note this isn't meant to sound mean or anything.)

He will get irritated, however, if becuase of your own problems, you don't take his advice to doing something. If you're refering to the incident I think you are, it's your fault for blaming him, not his. And he is a Bot Owner, BTW. |

This is because it has been a general rule that the only people who use that for any period of time are not really dedicated enough to IRC to get a proper client. And usually irritating people use that, and it is not the problem of the channel on what people choose to block. That is a personal choice. |

Seriously, many people use it just because they need it for something or like in our case to get help. So what if they're not dedicated, does that mean they shouldn't be there or get help? That really smells like those folks who start console and video card wars...not very smart and hostile to others. And as with irritating people using that, that's somewhat like email spam, you can't just block all emails you know. Just my two cents guys...

 Posted: 1 Mar 2005 17:26 GMT Total Posts: 2486 | Umm D, what does this have to do with Mac? I don't hate them, I just don't like them. I wouldn't buy one, put it that way. Neither would I buy a pc, I'd build a custom one as its the only way to get what I want and quality I need... Besides, I wouldn't be able to do much gaming on a Mac anyway and most software I use is for pc. I could have used VPC on a Mac but that would degrade peformance of the progs. Let's not really get into this again D :).
