| 68813 | 2002-08-06 23:44:00 | We are helping each other Elwin - this thread is clearing up a lot of confusion. :D > I was just postulating that a computer self help > forum seems to have turned into a local chat area... > it's no wonder that newbies don't bother looking > through the threads to see if their problem has > already been covered. What about your thread regarding finding a job? That wasn't entirely a computer self-help thread, was it? I mean, your PC wasn't busted. I didn't see you complaining about the off-topic subject then. How's progress, anyway? > I only read it cos my curiosity was pricked after seeing that Bruce > Buckman himself had posted a reply... Good for you, Bruce is well worth listening to. He is welcome to come and throw a rational journalistic bucket of cold water over any thread, anytime, in my view. We aren't that bad Elwin - not all that many threads are off-topic "chats". Once in a blue moon is OK, isn't it? <looks out window and checks colour of moon - yep, it's blue > :-) |

The Pentagon plane would have folded in on itself creating quite a compressed explosion . This building is built to withstand, dare I say it, an atomic explosion . Sand normally goes over fuel oil doesn't it . Les 3 |

All humans make mistakes on a regular basis . Not that I'm saying Bruce is mistaken . I'm just saying he's not a God either . > We aren't that bad Elwin Apparently I am . . . > - not all that many threads > are off-topic "chats" . Once in a blue moon is OK, > isn't it? <looks out window and checks colour of moon > - yep, it's blue > :-) Wotrya talking about? It's daylight . And yes once in a blue moon is alright, but how many blue moons before PressF1 turns into a bar? Would sort of defeat the whole purpose of PressF1 would it not? |

| 68819 | 2002-08-07 02:17:00 | I must say I agree with Elwin, :) It's one thing to have chats going in their very own thread, the moderators can lock them if they get out of hand. It's entirely another thing when there is a genuine PC question posted and the thread turns into crap chat, talking over the head of the poster as it started to do with 'disabledseaman'. Godfather posted an answer, there were 2 comments on that and there was mine that gave sites where cad programs could be obtained. Then there was a heap of crap-chat. That was why I became irritated, you were just the nearest target, Elwin. If I had been the poster, I would have given up on it. This is happening more and more, it doesnt do anything at all for F1. If this irritates you all so be it. :( |

| 68820 | 2002-08-07 02:51:00 | I dont think you should delete these posts but a first screen when you logon that breaks the posts into different categories would be good. i.e hardware, software, games and general discussion and non computer related would be good (and how about some colour) hope this makes sense cheers |
