    But like that rash, he keeps coming back. I have taken the route of NEVER answering anything of his, no mater how much he insults or provokes. Anything over the lien gets reported and that is it.

      I may be wrong, but you somehow called for it by answering with "Let me explain it in terms you understand"... I don't think Eric is that bad that you all seem to think. He's been trolling for sure about GW, but in the soapbox mainly, and even if sometimes still tainted with reminiscence of the past, the rest of his Lounge posts are not really abusive or controversial. At least, not worse than some of M.Dalek, if we have to take an example. Maybe you guys just could let go...

      You aren't. He started being abusive so I pointed out to him he didn't know what he was talking about in the bluntest way possible. If you cant take it, then don't dish it out. :)

        Fair enough. I could have worded it differently, but he had already called me stupid in a previous post so I wasn't trying to be polite. Perhaps I should have been.

        I didn't give it much thought until I told him to stop the personal attacks and he went ahead and sent another one on a different thread. That is when I started reporting him for abuse.

        Lets get a few things straight: 1) You completely misunderstood what I wrote about Linux. I said it was more fun to work on, I didn't not call it 'shit hot' and nor am I an 'evangelist' which is what you said I am. That's why I called you stupid, because you jumped to the usual conclusion idiots make when discussing Linux and windows. 2) You then come at me with a load of patronising crap when clearly you have no idea just how little the kernel has changed since vista. 3) You then get all pissy when I point it out to you. 4) You then get my account deleted (about which I couldnt give a shit). All of which is so obvious other people point it out to you. Rule no 1. If you cat take it, don't dish it out. And deleting someones account because they upset you just makes you look a wimp.

          His original handle was Fat Boy. When that got nuked, GW in the Lounge, he came back with Fat Eric. After abusing members that account was nuked too. There was another account of the Fat/Eric/Boy line that surprisingly was nuked. Erudite Eric started off being normal but slowly slipped back into his old tricks and has now been zapped. Watch this space for Erudite Boy.

                      God knows, and I dont care. The point is the link says to get a service pack for the OS and it takes me to an 'upgrade ie' page. Its just a pile of shit.

                        I'm running Linux (Fedora) and hosting different other OSes (ubuntu server, windows). I'm using VirtualBox Seeamless Mode to run only the application I need from Windows, so I never see the OS :)

                                You don't get it do you? 1) I have vista. 2) I try to upgrade to win7. 3) It tells me 'get SP1 from this link' 4) I put said link into IE. 5) It tells me IE needs upgrading. Now, do you finally get it? And no, I have been writing kernel code for windows for 18 years, I have spent SOOOOO long messing with windows, and it is such frustrating SW to work with. It breaks, irreparably, so easily, and in so many ways.

                                      I don't call people stupid, idiot, etc. You were the one getting pissy.

                                      As I explained to you I reported the posts where you were abusive to me because you wouldn't stop after I asked for you to not get personal. Your account was still active after my votes. Become abusive again and I will report again.

                                      I don't resort to calling people stupid because I don't agree with them. If that is dishing it out you are still back in the school yard confronting your demons.

                                        Do you still have any doubts?

                                          Odd that other people thought your post was offensive. I just gave it back,. If you cant take it, don't dish it out, and running crying to the admin like a little baby is just pathetic.
