And to think, some say we don't have trolls...
Posted By: Socrates <fuel4freedom@yahoo.com>Date: 12/12/03 2:57 a.m.

In Response To: Stop Bitching is what i say... (Spenser)

Hi,

Whether you intended it or not, you've just trolled HBO. If you didn't intend to do so, please take a few moments to reconsider and reread your posts before submitting them. If you did intend to troll, then, for your own sake, stop; trolling is often a sign of a psychosis and boredom, both of which are (and here I understate) detrimental to the human mind.

And now, I'll respond to your post... but not to your troll.

: jesus friggin christ, stop bitching about it
: and fix it urself...

The point is that he, and anyone else, should not have to fix anything. Good software is software which the user does not have to adjust at all to attain acceptable levels of performance, so long as the user is running "standard" equipment above the minimum requirements.

: im 16 and i can fiddle with all of my computer
: settings blindfolded and get into places i probably shouldnt be (i.e.
: overclocking options, and the registry...other various dangerous
: options)...

I take it that your blindfolded boast is a figure of speech. If not, you're welcome to prove otherwise in person.

Also, I'm glad to hear that you're curious about your computer, and that you recognize that those things you're dealing with at those certain depths are dangerous. However, I should note that the registry is not something particularly braggable, and that overclocking is actually a BIOS option on some motherboards. In other words, if you're going to try to impress someone, make sure you've done something beyond the "power user" level.

: all you have to do is click things and try to be curious...

and careful. Computer equipment is expensive at the levels required for gaming.

Now, to impress me, personally, you'll need several years more experience and likely some training, as well.

If you're going to respond to this post, and you want me to take you as anything more than a hot-headed, immature, and arrogant teenager, you're going to have to check your anger and frustration, improper English, and troll-like symptoms at the door.

Thank you,

Socrates
