kalimeeri Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 What's really sad is when a guest speaker who has worked long and hard on a presentation finds out that his Mac laptop doesn't connect up so well to a PC-based organization's system. And how is it that's all the organization's fault? Hel-lo.

Arkan Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Would it be prudent to post to Maddox's Apple article? "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." - Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials "I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta

thepixiesrock Posted August 25, 2007 Posted August 25, 2007 This is a perfect example of another problem. Not just people being jerks, but the reason behind it. You see, Being a jerk isn't what mac people are known for, being a jerk is what you know mac people for. I think one of the biggest problem, is that some people have just not come into contact with the right people. If all you ever comes in contact with are jerk mac people, then of course that will be your opinion of them. Is it a correct opinion? Absolutely not, but really, can we blame you? If you're only exposed to a certain kind of person, you begin to assume that that's how the majority of them are. The media will do this too. Show you a worst case example, and people take it as the norm. Part of the problem is that the jerks on all sides of the computer argument, are usually the most vocal.

tarna Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 No, that's because Jim is a dirty snitch who ratted me out. Actually, Jim tried taking the blame upon himself and sent a credible threat to the mod team that caused me to curse his name and tear apart my system and rebuild it to counter the 'threat' he posed. His trying to cover your ass actually caused me to even more secure my rig. Not sure I'm going to thank him for it though :wink: . Ruminations...

Sand Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 (edited) Sure. It was a conspiracy of Jim to get Tarna to destroy his old system so he would be forced to get a new rig at the cost of Kaftan's good modship lollipop which in truth a total fabrication.

Kaftan Barlast Posted August 27, 2007 Author Posted August 27, 2007 is anyone going to explain the story to those who haven't been here for 10 years? Kaftan the amazing was the best mod ever using the secret alias of "Authority". Later, Gabrielle the goth was made mod using a secret name Dark Raven. This was supposed to be secret. During this time a league of gentlemen formed of which kaft and Jim were members. Jim asked kaft if gabrielle=dark raven and kaft looked into the sacred book of IP-adresses and found it was so. There was much rejoice but Jim accidentally mentioned that it was the kaft who had leaked the secret. Jim tried to save the situation by saying he hacked the kafts account, but the green dragon knew the truth. And the kaft was demoted, but given an awesome title "Obsidian VIP" instead, and there was much rejoice. Jim got banned 4-5 times after that and is now hiding under a new secret name.
