I F*&ked Up!

[kurttrail]

So stop trolling and you know what that means....

Yes. You are finally admitting the truth to yourself, that you are
the only troll participating in this thread.

Now go bugger off and do whatever you trolls do. Hiding under bridges
and such.
Peace!

You could take your own advice, as it applies to you and Steve more than
myself.

Oh well, I knew you'd end up lying to yourself again. C'est la vie!

What, no contrition to put aright,
let ignorance be your only name.
To scoff at others in their plight,
Oh shame, oh shame, oh shame!

I turn on the tube and what do I see
A whole lotta people cryin' 'Don't blame me'
They point their crooked little fingers ar everybody else
Spend all their time feelin' sorry for themselves
Victim of this, victim of that
Your momma's too thin; your daddy's too fat

Get over it
Get over it
All this whinin' and cryin' and pitchin' a fit
Get over it, get over it

Steve N.

Ah, then by your definition I'm not a troll either. I don't stir up
any group. Though I do suspect that some certain individuals get
stirred by what I write.

Did I not say welcome back? If not make this a formal welcome. You do stir
the pot, and so far no one can dispute your claims. You do hedge on the
fact you have to lie to gain activation beyond what MS deems as in
compliance with the EULA, but it is easily done,and in many examples even
justified due to extenuating circumstances.

You seek out my posts.

"ROFL! Try not responding to me for a month and see how much I won't
miss you!" -
http://groups.google.com/group/micr...aeae7/242f7b0dadfad086?hl=en#242f7b0dadfad086

Which you did, but you were the one that broke the silence.

"I rather enjoyed the silence! Oh well, 'All good things . . . .'" -
http://groups.google.com/group/micr...e3547/1c3ab536198fd24f?hl=en#1c3ab536198fd24f

I can only show my reply to yours that broke the silence, as you are
too ashamed of your posts to let them be archived.


You are at times inhuman. That would be reason enough to consider you
to be alien.


No you weren't. The topic of this thread is the mistake I made,
calling 2 out of 3 posts censored by MS, when only one of them was
actually censored, which I didn't really need to expose, since no one
seemed to notice it, but I felt honor-bound to expose myself, as I'm
not afraid of the truth, even if the truth is that I was wrong. You
can't learn from your mistake unless you are first willing to admit
that you made a mistake.

Leythos is a valuble contibutibuter to the newsgroups, just as you are, and
I find little difference in what a person accessing the newsgoups could find
as bad information coming from either of you. I myself as Lethos experience
have never experienced any bad experiences from Symantec applications, but I
have seen many posts from users that have experienced problems. This is not
any different from any software application I have ever noticed feedback
from. Since Symantec has such a broad base of users installing the product,
it can be clasified much the same as Windows broad base of installation. I
have personally found most of Windows problems being related to a self
inflicted source causing the problem, and I could almost equate it to the
same cause of any popular software getting the same bad rap.
I do admit there is bad software, but most of the time, it is the user that
is really the cause of the problem.

The lie is:

"The only information required to activate is an installation ID (and,
for Office XP and Office XP family products such as Visio 2002, the name
of the country in which the product is being installed)." -
http://www.microsoft.com/piracy/activation_faq.mspx

If the above statement were true, then no End User would have any
opportunity to lie, as why would anyone want or need to lie about the
installation ID?

Why don't you get on MS's case about their lies when it comes to
activation?

Good idea, do you have any plan how I could achieve this revelation to
unload on Microsoft's marketing venue? I would love to express my parallel
sentiments about how Microsoft markets their products. Unfortunatently, they
do not offer a conduit to express this very valuable user feedback. They
have an ostrich mentality, that will unfortunately bury not only their
heads, but the entire company.

LOL! Only when the din of criticism is nearly universal does the
Sleeping Ostrich awaken and changes its course.

Until then MS needs to be continually kicked in the ass!

My post came off much harsher than intended (should have added a smiley),
but I do think MS marketing is shooting themselves in the foot by not
offering a reasonable priced multi-system home version license.
With the advances user friendly Linux distros like Linspire and Ubuntu have
made, MS should be worried. There are not many usability problems in the
comparable Linux software now available. Almost all applications available
to Windows is mirrored by a comparable Linux application. It is still not as
user friendly, but not far off.
This is something Apple has not been able to achieve and makes them a viable
but lesser threat.
