Like Kashmir and Green report guy(dont know the name), he could have done it genuinely and never reacted ? If you call some one Moron, Seth will call you stupid. whats the point here. Lets leave the topic here. Mr. Custer there are lot of sites let you upload like Yahoo briefcase 30 meg, angelfire etc etc. Show your passion here or you can sell it at download.com for commission. As Rsur said, lets maintain dignity.
Dear Sir,
There is nothing wrong with me, at least not that I am aware of. (Well actually, if you consider fighting fire with fire as wrong, then perhaps your question is reasonably valid, though I will respectfully disagree with your opinion.)
1. Please READ THE POST CAREFULLY. I am in support of Custer, not against him as you appear to imply.
2. Calling a certain poster a "moron", I was merely summarizing what is obvious from his post. Besides, I was nice enough not to directly call him that, just advised my good friend custer to ignore morons. Furthermore, he can call me stupid all he wants, it'd be difficult to fathom that a factual statement.
3. Custer is NOT trying to sell it, or get money, why is that simple concept so difficult for some of you to comprehend? All he said that he personally incurs costs to provide FREE software, and--understandably--he is not motivated to continue incurring those costs.
On the issue of "maintaining dignity" I like the system that fatwallet.com has implemented. Every post can be rated by readers (positive, or negative). A posting will acumulate those ratings, (ie 10 neg and 3 pos = -7 rating) and you can set a filter (easy dropdown) in your thread browser. That way, if idiots post, they usually get a lot of negative ratings, and the post then never makes it to most people's screens. I also think people accumulate ratings of their posts, so if your an idiot, it will be apparent to everyone, though at this time I don't think they have "idiot" filters yet
It'd be nice to have that system here, tho I understand the limitations of this particular forum software. Oh well..
