Small things amuse small minds. **** I just happen to have better things to do then to waist my time thinking of “I don’t have a life” come backs or to just waist me time Period. Has this place change??? or is it still pretty much the same where one idiot says something wise and a bunch of morons fallow suit, just wondering.
 
Oh no, it hasn't changed much.

It's still the case where one idiot like yourself asks a stupid question (which if you were so smart you wouldn't have needed to ask in the first place), and people make snide comments about your ignorance.

Seems about right, and keeps the riff-raff under control.

Should you upgrade your R9800Pro, sure Put and R9800XT in it, and then in 3 weeks replace that with and R420 and then replace that with an NV40 and then replace that with each refresh until you feel you've learned enough to not have to ask such stoOopid questions.

So, refresh my memory; which are you, the idiot saying something wise or one of the bunch of morons? Gotta be one of them I guess, cause you're definitely not someone with something more sage to offer than that.

I can see it hasn’t change. I don’t think I’m an idiot for asking a simple question. Ever hear there is no stupid question, but stupid not to ask the question in the first place, know how you learn things, by asking question. Yet, it is stupid of me to ask is it time to upgrade my video card, because I rather go straight to the source and find out and save my time doing a lot of searching and coming up with my owe conclusion, where a simply question in the right place can save me a lot of lag work, so see fool I am wise. I’m no longer a geek freak that feels the need to read everything that is written about a graphics card or how fast my computer can boot up. **** I ask the question and get hit by another question, upgrade to what, duh, that’s what I’m asking. I get a few immature responses, but hay your all are just kids, so let’s just be silly. A couple legit responses, and then a couple off the wall responses, just like your silly response that show’s me you people have nothing better to do with your time and the only reason I’m responding back is, because I want to tell you what a punk I think you are, lol.
 
Go buy a Dell.

Ever hear there is no stupid question,...
Right, just Stupid People asking questions.

Your phrase is usually used to cover up the transgressions of those who ask the stupid questions.

Of course others must bear the burden because you're unable (or you claim unwilling) to do the research yourself. But why bother asking the kids when you're so much better than them in the first place? Why would you trust the opinions of all these punks? Your circular-logic simply proves that regardless of your implied maturity, your wisdom is stunted in comparison.

And DH is right, a Dell would suit you best, then you wouldn't need to do any of your own research and you could simply ask them what you should upgrade to. Thereby not wasting our time, and saving you the effort of edjucating yourself, OLD 'man'.

I’m too lazy to quote, I hope that’s alright with you.
“Your phrase is usually used to cover up the transgressions of those who ask the stupid questions.”

Sure if that’s what you want to believe and I suppose only fat people say beauty is skin deep.

“Of course others must bear the burden because you're unable (or you claim unwilling) to do the research yourself.”

Who must bare the burden? Ever hear if you don’t have something good to say don’t say anything at all. Maybe I should of added no jack a$$’s need to reply.

“Why would you trust the opinions of all these punks?”

I never did get the question answered how the Nv compared to ATi with out AA/AF, before all he!! broke out. I suppose if I did the research I wouldn’t have to ask the question in the first place. Gee, if I have any computer problem I could research myself and not have to ask a single question. So what is this place for, just to chat and to tell people to search first for they don’t ask a stupid question or one that’s already been ask. If you people don’t want to answer the question, then why don’t you practice silences and let someone else that may be interested in sharing what they know, but it isn’t like that here is it now, stupid comments get added and the post becomes a waist of space. Think of me what you want, I won’t lose any sleep, but I don’t think this is right or far to some people who ask questions and it’s just a shame that some people have to ruin it for others.
 
Ever hear if you don’t have something good to say don’t say anything at all.
Trite at best, lame in fact. I was silent to your SchtoOopid ramblings at first, and then you step out of bounds and now your getting slapped back to reality.

But I guess this is your idea of something POSITIVE to add:
"is it still pretty much the same where one idiot says something wise and a bunch of morons fallow suit"

But truely if more people like you were to post this forum would go to fallow. That's why it's necessary to cut back the weeds like yourself before they take root.

Maybe I should of added no jack a$$’s need to reply.
Well you could say that an it would only prove that while you may be older than some of the young punks in here, your language skills are at a level below the average HS student. Their A$$ES, like ours, are not impressed. Even if it was my ASS' reply it would definitely be more robust than your own.

So what is this place for
Definitely not for uninspired tripe like yours that's been answered 50 times before, and would be easy to find by trying the SEARCH function to wit...

just to chat and to tell people to search first for they don’t ask a stupid question or one that’s already been ask.
That would be about right. If you don't want to take the effort to find out for yourself why should anyone do it for you? The search feature in THGC is very simple to use, and Google is even easier. But obviously it's not idiot-proof.

stupid comments get added and the post becomes a waist of space.
No a waste of space would have been the initial post, which obviously required so much effort on your part, whose only content amounted to;

"title says it all."

If you aren't willing to put an effort in asking the question why should any people respect you or your thread?

Got a problem with H-Boss and others being amused by your stupidity, then that's your problem; want to comment on it in a derisive fashion, then you open yourself up for a like-minded response from everyone else watching your DumbA$$ thread from the sidelines in muted contempt, staying silent until that point. So enough with your puerile BS, and you innocent victim act.

it’s just a shame that some people have to ruin it for others.
It is a shame hopefuly we won't hear much more from you and thus be saved from ruin.

Oh joy!

I had a Ti4200 up until last fall, and even games like Call of Duty barely ever dipped below 25 FPS; it was the best graphics cards I ever owned, and stability of the Detonator Drivers was an absolute pleasure. With the exception of Far Cry, I have yet to fully appreciate my 9800 Pro, but hopefully will all change when the big titles hit the market.
 
Lol, getting slapped back to reality, What Everrr. Is this where a useless nothing better to do persons jumps in and gives you a point, lol. Tell you what, I’ll give you a 1,000 points, oh boy do you feel good now, you should be proud, lol. Going to pick on my language, going to judge me by my language. I spell below a HS student, I must be a bad, bad person, hehe. And you’re such a wonderful person to point it out, well not really, but I’ll let you think you are, lol. Just for that, you can suffer! I won’t spell check, try to figure out what I’m saying then, lol. Bla, bla, bla, I’ll just keep going back to “little old me just ask a simple question” and everybody is being mean to me, sniff, sniff, you not nice, I’m telling. **** What can I say, I needed a reminder about asking questions here. There’s thousands replies a day, dare I ask is it time to up date my 9800 P. You can see how my question went all to he!!, if I did a search I would have to search threw all the useless BS that gets added, not to mention you can get different answers. Does it bother you that I’m around? Good, then I know what bugs you, guess I found a home, lol.
 
Wow you managed to devolve in your own thread and amount to being nothing more than a time-wasting tool. Congratulations, your family must be so proud.

I think your best argument so far has been Bla, bla, bla. Quite witty, and definitely an indication of this maturity you speak of.

Not only are your language skills lacking, so is you ability to use logic and reason. As a so called 'punk' I'm just happy you've managed to prove your level of maturity far better than the rest of us could. Of course you had no time to do the proper search or even prparation of your thread to get your answer, yet you are willing to spend more time bitching about the answers. It's almost Ironic really.

As for better things to do, there are so many, but some of them are simply so fun and rewarding that it simply makes them all the more entertaining for the rest of us. And after a weekend of skiing I'm sure my time is well managed, although you have only left me with about 45 minutes I can spend reading other mindless posts from mental midgets. I hope I don't miss anything entertaining for THIS, really you offer so little in return.

You’re the one that decided to get involved and pee me off, so I’m having a sh*t fit and stomping my feet. Your funny, it looks to me all were doing is insulting each other, but you want to have a mature and logic discussion about it. Sure could of fool me by the way you barge in. **** My language sucks, so what about it? Does that make you a better person for insulting me for it, does that make you a mature person picking on other people’s misfortune? Do you pick on the handy cap too, or maybe a certain race or just stupid people that ask stupid questions? Am I turning this around, well you tell me what the difference is? If you point out that someone doesn’t exercise the same language skills as you, dose it mean your argument is won? No it shows how ignorant you really are, but yet you want me to be mature about it. Hack fool, if it was a matter of a spelling B, I would hire a professional writer to smack you silly. **** Consider yourself lucky that I would even bother to take the time (being the nice and caring guy that I am) to father you. Anything to learn from all this, maybe keep your nose out of it and mouth shut! Yes, I did ask a simply question, if anybody had a problem with that they should of just kept their big mouths shut and let who ever wanted to answer it in a mature manner answer it. But He!! No! We can’t have stupid people asking stupid question that are to darn lazy to find out for them self’s. There are enough people that are going to make sure the post gets ruined.
 
Now you're making a play for innocence and sympathy? Hah!

You’re the one that decided to get involved and pee me off
You were pee'd off before I got to you, which is why I got involved. You brought this on yourself.

My language sucks, so what about it? Does that make you a better person for insulting me for it, does that make you a mature person picking on other people’s misfortune?
Right, you're the wounded little dove of peace I'm sure. If you want to put yourself on a pedestal and call everyone an idiot, a moron, or a punk, and trumpet how mature you are then you are making yourself a target because of your own actions. If you're so much more mature than everyone here as you proclaim then you'd answer for your actions, instead you prentend that it's someone else's fault for pointing out your short-comings. I'm Dyslexic, so you're not going to get any sympathy for your language skills. You wanna start calling people names and ascribing characteristics to them, which better suit yourself, then expect to get schooled regardless of your 'misfortune'.

Hack fool, if it was a matter of a spelling B, I would hire a professional writer to smack you silly.
And that's the difference; you WOULD have to hire someone in order smack me silly, be it verbally, mentally or physically.

Anything to learn from all this, maybe keep your nose out of it and mouth shut!
Yeah, one hopes you have learned that lesson, although I doubt it.

But He!! No! We can’t have stupid people asking stupid question that are to darn lazy to find out for them self’s.
Damn straight, that's the whole point. But <b>HEY</b>, I guess we have no one to blame but our<b>selves</b> for our own misfortunes in life; unless we're solipsistic whiners like yourself.

There are enough people that are going to make sure the post gets ruined.
Yes, and you can count yourself as the primary contributor to it's spiralling into oblivion, which is appropriate considering you're it's author. From cradle to grave this is all yours, even though you want to blame others. By the time I came in I was simply the undertaker giving it the burial it deserves. Of course I'm sure you will think that your post was something worhty of better, but it wasn't and I'm not the only one who thinks so obviously by all the posts that came before me.

This thread is <b>Dead</b>, nothing to see here folks. Movin' along, movin' along.

Go west on 22nd street till you get to Clyde road. NE corner, by the gas station. There's a Gateway store. They can 'help' you.

BTW Grape... I'm lovin the new attitude! Maybe it's not that new but I've been gone for a while, and before I left people were kinda cautious and nice about things because the mods were getting on people's backs (like mine!). Are they still?

Me: are you saying I can't provide?
Me: cause I know I can provide.
Me: oh and I can provide money too😉

i just got an idea from this post. You see, i think a video card is like a mini PC, it has ram, CPU, main board. So much acts like a computer. Then if we can only use our old computer(400mhz or above) to emulate the function the the current video card. Then everyone could afford ultimate gaming.....of course, the driver from nvidia and ati has to be open source or otherwise everything has to be built from sratch.

Anyway,
Just a thought
 
dhlucke

You’re either part of the problem or part of the solution, which are you? Let me tell you, part of the problem.

If my question wasn’t turned into a joke dhlucke, wise cracks and instigated I wouldn’t have had a fit. One person like your self starts and then others add to it and before you know it it turns into a joking matter where everybody is just adding wise cracks at other people’s Expense. Way to go dhlucke, way to influence the forum.

MHO, I don’t care how simple or stupid the question may seem. It can be answered or left untouched. You should practice untouched.

Wise crack can lead to trouble, either by going to far or someone taking offences. That’s you a Wise cracker, an instigator, haha you’re to funny. Good job dhlucke.

Where do problems start? Asking questions or answering off topic and adding wise cracks?

I suppose I’ll just get flamed and be accountable for being 100% wrong.
 
Okay, I guess I was one of those who The GreatGrapeApe dubbed "watching your thread from the sidelines in muted contempt." But ffs man - accept that your post was bad... really bad, and for oh so many reasons. Hell, even the FAQ would have given you your answer, forget searching.

I for one get pissed off with people posting dumb, short posts that push more meaningful, intelligent and useful posts way down the pages, thus making it less likely for me to see them, as I have only so much time to spend on these forums.

When someone starts a thread that asks a question that has been: answered before, covered in the FAQ, shows no degree of research and has no interesting content then it's bound to be mocked. Firstly becuase it helps to keep sane those forum users with more intelligence, and secondly, because it might actually help prevent others who may be new to the forums mimicking such appalling posts.

And finally, unless a moderator decides otherwise, people are pretty much free to say what they like in their own posts. Intrinsically, a joke or wisecrack can be considered of no less value to any other post.
