LOL!

Well you'd have to change the colour of my trunks. Remember they are BLUE, not RED. Though alot of my posts may appear otherwise. Never felt I had to stamp Matrox Fanboy on my posts like everyone else, although if I did I'd have to put 123% to compete with you. :tongue:

I wanna maintain SOME credibility when talking about gaming/cards, can't let on that I'm an MatROX fan. :wink:

This is the last time I'm going back with you on this

but maybe I should have put
<b>nvidia always pulls 120% out of their hardware through drivers... eventually</b>

to please your literary microscope.

Pointing out how they theoretically havent pulled out everything YET doesnt mean anything. For the fifth time, the point was, originally, that this is something to consider when buying an FX card.. the whole future might be a tad bit better than the current situation thing that you dont seem to take into consideration?

anyway im done with this crap, im going to continue posting much to your dismay and talk to much more pleasant people.. they may not agree with me but at least they arent jerks like you.
ive never met anyone online that brings the worst out in me, congrats.
ta ta.

edit- sorry cool, I forgot. i fixed it. :smile:

ROFL! I think we all know what happens when ATI boys get in the ring with NV boyz (z as an added suffix for extra emphansis on how badazz nv fanboys are, alternatives include ultra, rev .2, +++, or using numbers that range near the 10,000 range)..
I dont know about you but I kinda like the sound of nvidia fanboy10,000+.. :tongue:
now theres a sig.

edit- I just found a quote from myself saying that they pull 150% out of their hardware.. where does it ever end?
Nvidia has some work to do if they are going to keep that kind of track record up!

Yeah, I TRIED with the Mat-ROX, but that's PRO. I really couldn't think of anything else. Although someone in the forum did use a SPLENDID term. The Matrox Paraphernalia.
Sweet!
I also though MAT-ROTS (which is ascribing it to the company not the person) or MAT-BOTS but I'm not sure if people would get it as much.

MAD-OX
Mate-Sux
MAXTOR; no wait that's already taken.
Mut-Rox (lapdogs of Matrox) Mut-Bots
Meat-Rots
Matlocks (old world technology)
Maid/Made-Putz
Blue-Boys (their colour, get it? Ahh forget it!)
Monkey-Pox
Might-Rox (if it had more power!)
Agent Smiths; no wait that's the MATRIX! Ooops!

Well if you come up with something good, let me know. Although I don't have room on my sig to add anything. I wanted a link to RedGreen at PBS (it explains who he is) but that was too long so I linked to Red's home page.

Hey Kinney, I used to think you were a moron, but you've changed. Now youre 80% not a half-bad guy. Although I certainly don't agree with you on everything.

You've somehow rubbed grape the wrong way so things probly aren't gonna change between you two, however, I do not share the same feelings as grape at this time.

Just wanted to say that so you know not everyone hates you. Now you don't have to hang yourself in the backyard:)

LOL, Funny YOU would be mentioning a MOD. :lol:

If only GW weren't moving and backed that up. Then I'd know it's really gone to the $hitz!

OK, Obviously if you're stepping in to be the mediator in all this, then I've gone too far! :tongue:

I'm going to play hockey tonight at the University so maybe I'll get some of my aggression out there (must be the heat!). Perhaps that and a few ZZzzs will help.

Ok I'm the A$$hole. I'll leave it at that. But I'm still not going to let Fanboism get a free pass. But maybe I won't go out of my way looking for it, which may have been the case here. Oie! That's all I can give!


Man I need to SKI! 😎

Hmm that leaves 20% out in the open for grape to attempt to ostracize!!
Hes not that scary, just likes to argue over stupid sh*t, over, and over, and over... :wink:
and I'm too stubborn to let win but his arguments are losing their coherancy.

80% of myself wants to thank you.

I'll reform you yet. Just let me sleep first and see if it's worth it.

<font color=blue><i>stupid sh*t, over, and over, and over... </i></font color=blue>

That would tend to describe alot of your posts too, especially involving anything NV v. ATI related. So don't get too comfy with my changed disposition, it's not for YOUR benifit.

Ciaola!

I didn't mean someone to moderate posts and rid the place of flames Grape!!

I said a COUNSELOR to moderate GROUP SESSIONS!
Like to work out anger and relationship problems and such!

To moderate simply means to watch over, or direct (direct the direction of the session).

Ah, Ok, I thought you were joking (based on past experiences), that's why I put the laugh :lol: at the end of my comment.
I didn't think you were suggestiong it (I know where you stand on them, pretty much the same as me from what I remember), I just thought you were giving a reminder of what happened to you and GW. Anywhooo, so be it.

BTW, that's why I mentioned the mediator, I thought that's what you were attempting to be, obviously not. But in any case...

I'm off to bed.

Mediator would also work:) But I was not wrong in my usage of moderator. I mean, a group session with all of us could really get out of hand! And in that case a moderator might be a bit more help than a mediator!

Lol.

Will, way to step up and handle the situation. Job well done. Grape and Kinney, way to take it like men. Grape, DON'T KILL ANYONE at hockey tonight. hehehehe, I sound like a grandfather.

These days, no matter what company you like, be it <b>nVidia, ATi, or whatever,</b> no matter how logical your reasons, you're labeled an <b>idiot</b> or a <b>fanboy</b>, or <b>both.</b>
 
No dead, although a guy did break/sprain/bruised his shoulder/collar bone (I didn't do it! :wink: I don't know the end result he went off to the med. clinic and was still there when I left for work). He got checked pretty hard into the boards. Hope he's OK cause it's hard enough finding people in the summer (most students returned home) to play who are good enough.
Anywhooo, alls well that ends.... well just ends.

BTW we lost 15-11 (sounds like a football score but it's shinney). Best part of the game, afterwards with the FREE beer thanks to a guy who has a summer job with Big Rock breweries. 😱
