The bug was known for v15 already. Wouldn't it be easier to fix it in UB itself?

Even if you are right, if you resort to posting like you seem to always do - ie attacking Camdawg's character, accusing them of spreading propaganda - you completely destroy your own argument, and nobody takes you seriously. Besides which, if you have something important to say, say it once. The more often you repeat the same thing, the less likely people are to care. Because you repeat the same thing over and over, no matter what the truth value is of your initial statement, nobody listens. It becomes, "Oh look, Sikret and Baronius are wanting to start an argument about how they hate Fixpack, I wish they would drop it"
I could just sign under this statement.

the topic (at G3) dedicated to slandering/ridiculing some BWL members. Let's see... twenty-three pages AFTER it's been split from the original topic.
I wonder if anyone posting there is actually being serious. Surely they act like bad-mannered kids who think throwing rot apples at oldmen is a sort of good game, but barely anything else. Besides, if you take that "slandering/ridiculing" seriously would mean that you actually listen to it and consider it. But that's not the point, correct? Why would adult people feel offended by petty mockering is beyond my comprehension.

And about blackmailing. I could have missed something, but are you being sincere here? I for one never felt like I was being persuaded or something. Of course there is a possibility that I'm just way too intelligent and have great insight compared to all of little people gathered here (due to the recent event I'd like to clarify - it's meant to be an irony, a way to reduce stress). But I rather to think that modern people aren't that stupid to fall to such cheap "propaganda".

What you said about bad-mannered kids hits right on. My post was merely pointing out that he is participating in something that is essentially the same as what he was "opposing". I do think that some few are serious in ridiculing, but really, since it's done in the G3 thread, all it does is lower the reputation of the forum that permits such nonsense to go on. That is why I chose to come to BWL in the first place. I checked out the forums and I found several of them to be severely lacking in certain areas (in fact, a link in either G3 or PPG is what brought me here tongue.gif).

Actually it's not the individual that bothers me (I've dealt with tons of that type online already in countless numbers) but rather the fact that these days those types are becoming more and more prolific. The anonymity of the internet doesn't help matters either. Basically, any type of manners are going *Fwwtttt* down the drain. But that's another topic.
