[quote user="Cap'n Steve"]On what planet is a civilized discussion considered trolling? You need to get it through your head that this forum doesn't belong to you. If my posts bother you so much, then stop reading this thread. [/quote] You need to follow your own advice. [quote user...

[quote user="Cap'n Steve"] I've written one batch file (that was all of one line long) and one shell script (which did need sleep) in my life. After taking a Server 2003 class, I can see where batch files could be very useful on a domain. I'm not saying it's a huge problem to...

[quote user="Cap'n Steve"]Would you still be defending them if Server 2003 didn't come with something like ping?[/quote] When was the last time you used sleep from the command line? I don't see how your comparison is anywhere near fair. Sorry, I think you are really reaching here...

[quote user="poopdeville"][quote user="MPS"]You feel compelled to do the same thing in every thread where I post. What is different about this one?[/quote] You still haven't read the thread, have you? (Hint: look at the thread's first page) I can't help but being compelled...

[quote user="stinch"] Telling people to grow up then tagging the post with a load of childish tags? Your posts have degenerated into troll baiting and troll feeding. Helping to turn what was a reasonable forum into crap. [/quote] Riiight, because I started that. It is definitely my fault that...

[quote user="WeatherGod"]Is it about time to bring back the sarcasm tags?[/quote] Did they ever go away? Heron is just upset because he has another little complex like Morbii, Lysis, dlikhten, and poopdeville have. They see something from me, they take it serious and start flaming. It wouldn't...
