close, but i think its a bit more of with all the attacks they get on windows, these attackers/hackers are actually finding all the holes then MS fixes em. making it more secure in that sense.
the less people find em on other OS's, the less they get fixed.

MS has its problems. but they do work damn hard at this stuff and never get credit.

Is that a command?I've lost the context, . Are we still on orange would look good?
What is your real name?Where did MS get its problems?And.
Who are "They?"

Why is it we dont have an ignore list here? i know vbulletin has the ignore lists cuz other message boards use it. really do need one tho so everyone can block that out.

We do. Look in the UserCP

Block out what? Camfubot? Why not just delete him? Or lower his post limit even more.

One thing that contributes to his 'annoyingness' is that he has to quote the user that posts right before him. Generally, if you respond to a post right before yours, you don't need to quote it.

its a bit more then that.

the very idea of him is hypocritical. if he were an actual person, he'd be baned for spaming meaningless posts the first day.

he's allowed to stay and annoy everyone because he's one of the admins little toys that he gets some childish kick over.

and typhoid, if i could delete the bot, dont you think i woulda done it already? i dont run the site

and thank you Jonbo, i didnt see the ignore list hiddon down there. most have it when you click on the persons name.
