I have been part of MS newsgroups for years. I have NEVER seen such crap in
any other Microsoft newsgroup,
like I have seen in here. I have never seen a collection of such IDIOTS in
one Microsoft newsgroup ever.
I will give you a GOOD reason this newsgroup is different.
Vista attracts stupid people because its quality is bad, and bad attracts
bad.
Its simple.
If you had a good product then there would be little controversy or need to
quarrel.
Sure there would be some trolls from time to time, but they would leave
without something to fuel their troll hunger.
Vistas very nature is food for FLAMEWARS, people who love it and people who
hate it, and some who come in here
because a lot of commotion is going on and post irrelevant crap just to get
the attention (see spanky and its clone kevpan).
Don't blame ANYTHING or ANYONE else. Blame Vista for being a bad product in
the first place that has caused grief and disappointment and controversy all
over the globe.
