Think I agree with Source - Noone you're a lamer if I ever saw one
Hey all
I use forums for dumbass stupid questions all the time, because I, just like Source, do things that others are not prepared to do because the rules tell them they shoudn't.
And so once I've dewired, resoldered or just generally destroyed a once perfectly working or unworking object from a washing machine door timer lock to a swimming pool pump or a piece of computer hardware, I sometimes find that I have to expose my attempts and theories on the particular subject in order to tap into the knowledge of those that have been there before me.
It happens very rarely, but of course sometimes I get dissed by lamers like noone. In my experience, very rarely do these bedroom loners have anything to contribute to the actual topic, and in this instance my theory stands. Noone contributed two stupid and irrelevant postings that in no way contributed to the subject of what Source was talking about.
Let me provide an example of how irritating these postings can be, I'm sure many of you are aware of this issue, so I'm not treating you like children okay, this is just for noone.
You do a google because you have a problem or you want a driver or a solution. In your google you come across a few forum postings.
You click a promising looking link, the post contains almost the exact question you are asking.
You're using telkom adsl so of course the page takes ages to come up.
The next post after the question says "me too does anyone know the driver or the solution?"
The next post says:
"I'm also looking for the answer hey if you find it email me okay?"
And the next:
"me too I'm desperate...."
"Me too" says the next post. "Tried everything, have the exact same prob as you PLEASE HELP!!!"
"hahaha you stupid lame ass with too much money" says noone
"ad frickin nauseum"
until you don't find an answer
The point is noone there are intelligent people who can get away with being insulting in forums, because they contribute. This does not necessarily mean they are well liked.
Then there are unintelligent people like yourself who just clog up forums with useless comments, like the example above and the example you have made of yourself in this forum.
To me it's a simple thing, but maybe to you it's a fine art of the intelligentsia that you haven't mastered.
So let me spell it out for you okay, Insulting is usually a pretty ugly thing unless
1. It's directed at monopolies like Telkom or any company riding their bandwagon or
2. It's done in a way that is both humourous and informative
Now I'm a nice guy so instead of insulting you I'll just say, "You fail on both counts, but there's room for improvement."
Hopefully you'll heed the advice, otherwise I'm looking forward to your lame ass comments that will only reiterate my point further...
