[quote who="Anthony R" reply="36" id="2408207"] So while Mac is superior in most ways to Windows, its overpriced and not all that practical when considering other options..[/quote] How is a mac overpriced? It's not more expensive than any designer PC. If you compare the hardware on a recent mac with equivalent hardware on a recent pc, the price really is the same. You can't just look at the specs though. You need to look at the big picture (Design, battery life (for notebooks)

Ok, for starters, I have this same issue on both Vista and W7 (x64) If I apply a skin in wb7, live messenger (build 14.0.8089.726) disconnect me instantly after log in.

Objectbar is as good as discontinued too afaik.... [quote]Things that are going to go into maintenance mode (no longer updated): - ObjectBar.

[quote who="messiah1" reply="55" id="2381450"] Because my nick is messiah1, alot of closed minded people just assume that I'm some sort of religeous freak pushing a god agenda.[/quote] Personally, if I were to judge you by your nick, I'd really think the exact opposite. No truly christian person (freak or not) would use the nick messiah. It can easily be interpreted as sacreligious. Not even a satanist would use it, because really, they wouldn't want anything to do with what it s

[quote who="the_Monk" reply="98" id="2380687"] Anyone who claims he/she doesn't KNOW when they're out-of-line is full of shit! Period. [/quote] There's a difference between knowing when your actions are out-of-line and being aware of it happening though. And it seems you're not very good at policing yourself, considering your own hostile post is out-of-line in itself.

[quote who="messiah1" reply="10" id="2380448"] But the fruits of our work today may not be apparent in our lifetime.

[quote who="Fuzzy Logic" reply="87" id="2380452"] You appear to be making a stance based very dubious information. [/quote] The only thing I've said is that the moderators should tell people when they do changes to a user profile. If they ban someone, I think it's only fair to let them know if it's a time limited ban or a permanent one. Since there has been nothing said against the statement that no information was sent, I accept it as true. But really, it doesn't matter

[quote quoting="post"] I do not choose to be a common person. It is my right to be uncommon. [/quote] I'm afraid that can never be entirely true. Nature (not only human, it goes beyond that, it's nature in all) doesn't really approve of anything that is too different. There has always been a natural selection, and I don't think we can make that go away. If you're too different you'll inevitably become an outcast. The majority of human kind are still essentially cavemen, re

[quote who="VarekRaith" reply="85" id="2380389"]Posting on these (and most other) forums is like visiting someone elses house. You don't shit on the carpet and expect everything to be peachy. You also don't whine when the owner boots you for such behaviour. /excuse the language, it's just Jafo has explained forum 'rights' how many damn times???

[quote who="Bichur" reply="75" id="2380247"] It's not unreasonable to want a notification, I know I'd want it if something was done that affects me (be it removed or edited post, ban or whatever else). who="Island Dog" reply="34" id="2378146" In many cases a person will be warned via private message before it escalates any further.
