@40mhz, I am sure you would like to regulate ;) Can always tell... Apply for a moderator job if desire sticks. Piracy is typically an invitation for eager moderator wannabies people to react, old, weak and basically BS though there are people like zridling around who can ask WFT are you talking about?, standing up for ones word is a admirable feature - most fail and come off as hypocritical if they try, I estimate 95% hitrate when topic is piracy including every member on this domain :) Probably not "wise" to say either with so sensitive a bunch of people around. Virtual sensitivity rocks!

@Bamse - charming as ever. You never cease to amaze me with your talent for assigning motives to, and putting words into mouths of, people you barely know.  First app103, now me. Must be wonderful to have the talent to spin fiction so easily. My hats off.

( It appears virtual rudeness rocks equally well for you.  :))

Bamse:
May be you should consider keeping personal stuff in the irc room or where it is you personalize. I am happily unaware, not interested in relating to person to person chitchat with unknown and irrelevant references on a public/general forum - see no fun in guessing what is acceptable to say or not to say.

If you have a need for a strickly DC-personal forum ask for one. You might get to be moderator, defend wise posts not annoying anyone you know personally. Jump in and make sure the others are regulated to your satisfaction.

@tomos - typical story, not used with joy but not out of the question either. If you get an Office Pro via work priced as 2 packs of cigarettes will you pay full price in retail? What do you tell your friends if they don't know already? Free market my butt but how it is with many things. Develpers are not more stupid than average. A 14 year old family member recently asked me for Office 2010 because her school required it. I don't think MS should increase sales because of stupid market forces and schools so she got it from msdn. MS don't care since she will now be trained in Office and not the annoying alternatives. Another one in the basket and she can be used later. Have to be an complete idiot defending this setup with great conviction. MS not the same as small developers but complex and messed up it is. Guess I am distributor of pirated software as well but ok.

Wow...Just...Wow...Bamse...You are so full of BS its UNREAL...I have never read such a mass amount of crap by someone with thier head so far up thier own ass in my entire life...

Firstly, get a grip...Piracy aint going to cause the world to end...shit happens...every minute...of every single day...deal with it...

Secondly, When you next think..."Wow, I dont agree with a single person in the entire world, which leads me to think they are all self-righteous arrogant assholes" - Maybe you should reconcider, and look in a mirror.

I, for one, am sick to death of reading your mindless drivel.  You bring NOTHING but aggrivation to subject matters.

A wise person once told me the following:

Click Here: NSFWIf you dont have anything nice to say...then get the fuck off my front lawn before i beat you with a shovel.

Inspiring words eh!

Ok Folks, I find myself guilty of losing my temper and exercising poor judgement in three of my previous posts on this thread.  :-[ (Reply#: 40, 46, 50)

For that I apologize to all the members here at DC and ask that you don't follow suit and commit a similar breech of forum etiquette. It accomplishes nothing except to poison the well.

A high degree of civility and mutual respect have always characterized the discussions in DC's forums. It's something that makes this place totally unique from my experience with the web.

Let's see if we can all do our best to help keep it that way. :)

This place would be a lot more pleasant if there was less moral policing. We all have our personal opinions and flaws. I think it would be wise to think twice before we publicly call out individuals about what's being accomplished other than possibly humiliating and alienating them.
