I had a MVP nominate himself, so any MVP that wants or needs to be
inducted into the Microscum MVP Hall of Shame, please feel free to drop
me an email!

So without any further ado, the newest inductee to the Microscum MVP
Hall of Shame, by his own request, is:

Robert Moir - MicroMoron!

Congratulations Robert!

David is not a MVP anymore, and hasn't been for quite awhile.

What futile attempts? When he gives advice, it is usually very good
from what I've read, and those that have the most problems with him are
mainly those not bright enough to understand him, or those with a bat up
their arse and have absolutely no sense of humor.

There are a few MVPs that are deserving of induction into the Microscum
MVP Hall of Shame, much more so than David.

Quite original! Let me know who your ghost writer is, because you
surely didn't come up with that all on your own, and I'm looking for
someone to write my replies for when I'm too busy.

As what, an MVP or a troll? <smirk>

Although you may think the two should be mutually exclusive, in reality,
they aren't/

Going around calling individuals thieves and pirates for wanting to
fairly use the very expensive copyrighted software that was sold to
them, is, in fact trolling.

Now, Colin, don't try to confuse Kurt with the facts. His mind is made up.

We know about the licencing scam. It's a scam. It's highway robbery. EVERY
computer web site says "software", not "licences".

So? If someone (let's just use the term "license" as you use in this
instance for now) BOUGHT the license, should they then be deemed thieves and
pirates for using their "paid for" license (software) for their personal
use?

Look up in the dictionary "Thief", and see if one of the definitions state
"making legal purchases and using said purchases for personal use".

Look up "piracy" and see if there is a definition "making legal purchases
and using said purchases for personal use"

Now, consider what breaking an agreement is, and find where that translates
into thievery and piracy.

If you can read the website, you can read the EULA. If you just click
through it during an install, that's your issue.

Huh? I didn't say anything about reading or clicking through the scammy
EULA, now did I, sport? Do you have a reading comprehension problem? Is
English not your first language? The web sites I was referring to and I made
it clear by typing *computer web sites" say *software*, not "licences".
Yaknow, the ones that sell Microsoft *Software*?

I have a degree in English from the University of Texas Arlington and my
comprehension skills are fine. If you install software without reading
through the EULA then the problem is not comprehension, but reading at all.

You learned English in The Republic of Texas? No wonder you have a problem!

is not comprehension, but reading at all.

Huh? I didn't say anything about reading or clicking through the scammy
EULA, now did I, sport? Please try to respond to content, not what you think
I typed. Can you do it?

Let me see if I can make it clearer. Go to the web sites of Walmart, Best
Buy, Longhorn Ass Kicking Trailer Park Computers, Sears, whatever, and try
and find a place to click on to buy a licence. You will ONLY find a place to
click on called "software". For some reason, when people click on that and
add XP Home to their shopping cart, they think they are buying SOFTWARE. Do
you understand me now or do you need me to go a little slower?
