Hey you guys, relax and chill out a bit :D . William, you might have noticed that this is a M$ hate site as implied by its title and I don't think it could get more clear and straightforward than that ;) . Hence, everyone in here has a pathological hate for Microsoft, eventhough some of us have to use Windows. For example, Calum dual boots and uses Windows to connect to the Internet because his Winmodem, and mine as well, does not work under Linux.
However, this doesn't necessarily mean that we are willing to answer any Windows related question. On the contrary, we can provide you with the alternatives should you want to try them out. And there are alternatives out there believe me. So, there's really no need to become agressive. As for the Windows related questions you can try the windowsbbs forums and get an answer there ;)
Calum, I know you are one of the oldest members in these forums, counting almost 2.6 thousand replies. You're also a very good an responsible moderator, but sometimes I think that you cross the line (I'm sorry, no insult intended) meaning that you shouldn't fall to the level of people like William etc. You're very intelligent and very fluent in English, unlike other English blokes ;) , to start swearing and using bad language. Just ignore them.
Again, no insult intended Calum. As I said I respect you and all and I really find your posts, when not accompanied by hatred statements, very very interesting .

well how long i have been here and how many posts i have doesn't make me any better than anybody else, i'd like to point out, i'm no bully! re: crossing the line, i think all's fair on a site with 'fuck' in its name.

i know, but they get wearing and sometimes i just can't help myself. Again, i wouldn't normally use 'bad' language, but when the site has 'fuck' in the title, well...

Well of course i take no offence, your comments are well founded, and i would also like to point out that i do not hate anybody, ergo those 'hate' statements are actually 'irritation/windup' statements. If people choose to be offended, then that's their lookout. i have nothing personal against willllllliam (or however you spell him), but if he chooses to continue being a dick, then i will continue to ridicule and insult his statements. Nothing personal, again what do you expect on a site with 'fuck' in the name?

Very true Calum and forgive me about the English part. I forgot you were Scottish ;) . I like Scottish people and I remember meeting some when I was in England studying. There's really no comparison between Englishmen and Scottish people. Night and day really... You english fellows out there, don't get insulted but Scottish people are really much much nicer than most Englishmen.. Sorry
Calum:
:D of course it depends on the individual et cetera, but apart from all that i agree with you 100% ;)
