Title: Please Forgive the Techno-Snobs!
Post by: 100hooch on July 29, 2009, 01:13:08 AM
In regards to the recent update, please forgive all of the people who are screaming, "UPGRADE" and "GET A MACHINE FROM THIS CENTURY."

They cannot help but to disparage, ridicule, and degrade, rather than help those of us having problems.  For they know not about social interaction, sexual intercourse outside of a magazine, or life of any kind beyond the top of their mothers' basement stairs.  And the fact that they have bought/built a home computer bigger than anyone else would ever need, is the only way they will find themselves superior to anyone in their entire lives.

Let us not judge them too harshly in their erroneous victory over their own fruitless lives.

Ah, you weren't there at the big terrain update, or the arena split, or the invention of ENY...  :D

Hooch - With your wit and repartee I have no idea why you're not running some portion of the country, it would probably come unstuck with your plan to make nude female cheerleading a nationally televised event with no ad breaks.
If your system worked on BETA it works on version today - is that the case?
I think the super geeks get a day in the sun today. They get to dump on crew for no reason other than they can.
In 6 months time they'll still be them -very sad.
I have a suspicion that some of the people with "high end" computers are also the same ones who clip a photo from an auto web site and paste it as the car they drive.
Or the same crew who serve or have served in the marines or delta force or flown F-16's or whatever.
Bull eats grass, digests grass,  produces - you get the picture.
If your car was that good and you had killed that many people the last thing you would do would be to either play "pilot-man" or quote video card specs or dump on people that didn't deserve it.
I think though, that the limit on 8 characters for a call sign is too limiting - just push it out and we could have WalterMitty___. especially for the aforementioned.

Ain't that the truth?  I nominate the arena split for first position.

My computer is almost four years old.  Yes, I built it myself, but I do not upgrade every year.  AH runs fine on it.

So there are no problems because you have none?
