Tired of this CRAP on the messageboards

Tired of this CRAP on the messageboards

How about this for a solution to the problem of all these dickweeds registering just to cause trouble;

You have to be a registered member of WC (not necessarily a paying one) for at least one month before you're allowed to post. If you need help, go to IRC.

You need to understand how the world works man...

Certainly do .... and 'I can pee higher than you' contests are very unfashionable.

Whats the complaint? I don't understand it. Everyone knows that WB skins better than StyleXP. So, what's the matter with a little more memory usage. I think 7MB is fairly small. Especially since WindowsXP needs about 128MB to 256MB of Ram to run smoothly. And most power users have even more Ram, up to 2GB. If WB uses 7MB of the 156MB being used on my system, I would be happy and I am. Svchost uses about 40MB, I am more concerned about that, and it doesn't even give it back once you disconnect from the net. It's a ridiculous argument against WB, I think. There seems to be a lot of StyleXP people coming here lately. Maybe they are trying to steal Windowblind users because their program is going out of business. So, they are now flooding this site with a lot of useless propaganda.

Here's a few skinning items I have running:
Item........RAM/Virtual memory (in K)

Windowblinds 2096/2148
SysMetrix 11592/5288
CursorXP 2264/2132
DX 3668/1708

Where is that using loads or resources? Out of 768Mb ram using about 18Mb for various skinning products is no great loss and 11 of that is SysMetrix. At the moment I'm showing 515Mb free ram.

I can never understand why people show loyalty to an illegal system hack for which an unscrupulous company charges money

I sleep through all the fun!

Referring to DT's original message, I think that a month's grace before a registered member can post is a tad extreme. However, I do think that only registered members should have posting privilege.

Like you Joe, I've been wondering about the lawsuit.

I hope longhorn has built in skinning for everyone that puts Stardock out of business.


Why would anyone want to wish misfortune on another. Stardock is run by people who have families. Take your opinions somewhere else.

And yes, it will work on Longhorn.

Ender2070, EnderDX, Luffy, or whatever you call yourself these days, try acting as an adult if you are one. Your comments on IRC towards Adam and others who tried to help you, on Neowin, and here are extremely childish. You're acting like an angry 12 to 15 year old child. >

/me thinks hard about how to properly word this post

Without Stardock my computer would look like crap. Many of the Stardock employess are my friends, and I consider them family. Without WC, I would be lost as I have many friends here as well

Think twice about what you post. Bashing stardock will not earn you points with the people here.

And BTW no "forces" you to use stardock products. I can't stand a computer without windowblinds.

Good rule of thumb is if you have nothing intelligent or nice to say, then say nothing at all because you have made yourself look like a fool.

Ignore Ender people, not worth the effort, the energy or the negative impact on the board to debate anything with them....

Obviously the comment of an arrogant child with no knowledge of what goes on in the real world.
Stardock's products are approved by Microsoft. WindowBlinds is use by millions, including mayor developing and films companies. So you can be sure that every OS develop by Microsoft will give way to these products as oppose to all those hack programs that 'clueless' Ender defends so much.
But we won’t abuse you too much Ender2070 as we can rest assure that you'll be purchasing Stardock's products very soon.

That would need some rational thought processing Apo_67 ..... a commodity in short supply. >

Which is really odd for me, I do not feel constrained by morals, EH



Nor should you be...I know I'm not.
Anyways,

Ignorace is bliss...Mr. Ender, you must have been absolutely ecstatic when you first came here and started posting comments...

Perhaps you've sobered up a bit?
