Uh, I'd like to know where all that info came you think I just copy-and-pasted, Tyrell. YOU are the one who simply copy-and-pasted my page onto YOUR website when you didn't like my colors. Who's the REAL chimp here? I have mostly original content on my RW site (and most of my other websites too). Whatever I've quoted from I've referenced to with a link, like any decent webmaster should. I also remember you never had my name listed on your copied version of my page on your site until I bitched about it, so don't start playing these silly games again, Tyrell.

Not all of it; in fact, not even most of it. Lucrezia's AWCI RWX site's content came mainly from my site (even down to word-for-word info, table layout, and the name!), even though she claims she convienently "lost" the sources a few people supposedly emailed her. She's such a phony I want to smack her upside her pompous-assed head.

It would seem you need to learn how to read, Fatts. First read what you originally wrote, then read my reply. It REALLY shouldn't be this hard for you, unless you're clueless. I've even fixed your screwed up quoted line wrapping to assist you. Go ahead; I'll wait here...

Yes, considering I never have such horrible English grammar. :) Also, if you only see negativity from me, you're not looking close enough. Most of the time I REACT to other people's posts. If someone posts something OVERLY off-topic, I'll most likely tell that person. If I'm blunt and "not nice", too fucking bad. I don't want to see shit about digital IDs, for example, in here, just like I don't want to see the "fluff" I initially bitched about in 1997 when I first came to AW's newsgroups.

Be glad I didn't react to you leaving in sigs and other crap that doesn't need to be quoted (which I removed)...

IE isn't required for file management. I didn't have IE installed after installing Win95 and could do file management just fine.

Nov 16, 2000, 4:42am

Well, you didn't specify which Windows it was for. Anyway, I don't understand: you uninstalled IE twice, during which one unstallation your system crashed in the middle of it and you could no longer do file management? Perhaps you didn't uninstall IE correctly or something, but I doubt IE is required for Win98 any more than it is for Win95. Dunno about Win2K and ME, however.

Finally found a better source I used to have bookmarked, but lost due to a corrupt Partition Magic partition resize. I tried to find it earlier but didn't have any success. Anyway, it's http://www.ncdesign.org/html/list.htm which is the SOURCE of the HTML spec and lists what tags Navigator and IE can do.

Nov 16, 2000, 2:30pm

At LEAST the message you are replying to (or parts of it) should be quoted in your reply. The referred-to message isn't always available on news servers (most have short expiration dates, although AW's don't seem to expire, but AWCI is flaky in its archiving, as is evidenced by the now defunct "discussion" and "awcommunity" newsgroups. At any rate, it's annoying having to click on the message you're replying to just to see what the hell it is you're referring to.

HTML posts are just annoyingly large and even more annoying when idiots like Tony56 reply with a single line. His posts tend to exceed the original message's size by 5 times which is just ridiculous for his worthless replies anyway. I'm almost to the point of filtering for that fact of his incompetence alone...

This is one of the reasons I rip on clueless newbies so much. If they can't take the time to learn about offsets between download time and display, and learn how to use their programs (like enabling wordwrap, for example), they shouldn't be using the Net, software, or computers in the first place. This is one of the problems I have with Microsoft dumbing down Windows so clueless idiots can attempt to use it (My this and My that, and now their lame misspelling of WinME as WinMe--lame-ass bullshit). I will continue to rip on people until they learn how to properly and effectively use their computers and not annoy the shit out of me and other people in the process. And don't even THINK of mentioning my line length because it's EASILY fixed by simple enabling wordwrap, which any computer user should know how to do anyway--PERIOD.

I don't enjoy it. Unfortunately, most people don't always understand why I do the things I do until MUCH later (if at all) after MUCH bickering. This is one reason why people should not TRY to understand what I do and simply accept it and move on. I sure as fuck don't try to understand everyone who posts here. Some, like Derek, are completely transparent which is why I immediately rip on them for their incompetence.
