Dennis is nothing but another wannabe that recently joined this group

and judging his increasingly shrill comments seems desperately trying

to dethrone past wannabe types as the main blowhard. Accordingly I

wish him luck, but he should be aware the competition for the being

the most obnoxious poster in this newsgroup requires considerable

effort considering there are so many attempting to archive the same

status.

Considering all you have to offer is lies, insults and bluster it's a no

brainer that you would enjoy seeing someone else imitating you with

lies, insults and bluster.

 

Soooo, you and he are the ones nailed, not me.

LOL! Talk about your lies getting old:

 

1. Lying I can't get my system to work.

2. Calling me a drunk.

3. Denying Alias always makes you dance in circles.

 

But hey, don't worry Frank, I support you keeping your hallucinations.

That is after all the only thing your have left to cling to.

Frank fires up his branded Redmond controlled Vista computer and reads

the above. Then he posts the words "liar", "drunk", "insane", "idiot",

"fool", "loser" in one order or another and says to himself, "That'll

show 'em", belches, snorts and then lets out a loud fart and says to

himself, "I sure showed those losers and they had it coming" and then he

takes another hit of beer, belches again, and continues to post the

above words over and over again all the time thinking he's the coolest

thing that ever hit Usenet.

That is not an insult.. it is a statement of fact.

It is you that results to insults when you have lost the debate as it is you

that uses the other crude debating tactics in a vain attempt to conceal your

blatant ignorance.

You shouldn't introduce stuff like that.. alias will now accuse you of lies

and bluster as well as poor debating techniques.

I have seen that before but I thought it would be well beyond alias'

understanding and I didn't want to have to explain it.

The simple fact that they can't find the bugs by reading the source should

be enough evidence for a normal person to understand that they wont find

anything else either. You don't attempt to hide bugs like you would

malicious code.

Fact:the only computers that are members of herd bots are Windows boxes.

Live with it or wake up and go Open Source. Calling me crazy or saying I

have crude debating tactics doesn't address this fact. It's an ad

hominem attack, a very amateurish debating technique.

Like you do? Funny, where I come from calling someone 'crazy' isn't

meant as a complement.

You're ridiculous! Your main "technique" (if you can call it a

"technique") of debating is ad hominem insults and lying!

Live with it!

And you got to ask why I call you a psychopath? You flip ever stupid

comment YOU make and try to pretend the other guy said it. If that

isn't a sure sign of mental illness nothing is.

Re: Your Problem

 

You are just one Nasty MOFO. You are a disgrace to the programming

community. I will vote to have you banned from any .NET meetings with

Microsoft. You belong in DLL HELL.

 

Just FYI.

You wish. Ubuntu is MUCH easier than Windows. Course, how would you

know, being as you've never installed Ubuntu.

Fact: You still don't understand even the basics of computing but are

prepared to claim to be an expert and advise others.. badly.

No amount of claiming others are insulting you when they aren't or lying

when they aren't is going to change the fact that you are ignorant when it

comes to computers. Listening and learning is the only way you will improve

and you don't appear to be capable of that.
