Fortunately for all of us, I'm not nearly childish enough to be drawn into an extended spamfest with the likes of you as part of the struggle to get the last word.
And you're just upset cause you were owned and that was the best comeback you could come up with. j00 R /\/0+ l33+ -----Original Message----- From: Scott Barnes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 21 March 2003 3:37 PM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] Re: CFMX Updater 3 Released Heh, I got the last word neh neh.

Sharing is just admitting that you can't keep it. As far as opera? The interface is superior, performance shits all over IE, history/logging/privacy handling makes IE look like the great hulking pile of dog crap it is. The tabbed paging interface, shortcut nav bars, auto nav headers and the general structure makes IE look like crap. It is just a better browser, and the only issues I've found to date with page renders are people who try to browser detect and screw the pooch with the 'changed' render for Opera. And you java freaks can just all backoff! Bill and the MStappo are on my side. On the topic of the site thought? Yeah I think the site is ugly, but I don't care. The interface is basically good, its just poorly applied. Take the interface for the download page, add updates to the same freakin layout, treat it like a support page. For all that I get slapped down for accusing MM of having their model built on marketing? if its not marketing its crass ineptitude, and they strike in general as too clever by half to be annoyingly retarded about their policy adoption. There's also possibly, just possibly, the option of overwhelming pants are too much effort, fuckit I'll go to work in my slippers and bathrobe laziness... Which I admire at a basic level as I'm still striving for new and more unproductive ways to be a lazy bastard, and I couln't hope to emulate it... But I can't really see another option. The 'new' page as such isn't really my beef. Its the attitude towards support. Its made 'hard' to resolve the issues that are experienced using the products. Its made expensive to get help resolving the issues with the products. Its made tempting to go play with Microsoft again and be content in 'well yeah its ugly, but it doesn't piss me off'. I don't have a problem at all with MM charging out the clacker for support. Thats fine by me. But if its going to cost either a VERY expensive support licence, a very large credit card hit, or your three first born in an offering to the powers that be to get support, then I'm presuming that MM don't actually really want to be doing support. Christ knows thats how I manage my demand for services I don't want to provide. I charge exorbitantly untill people decide that they don't really want to bother me, or pay me enough to make it worth my time. Of course, if you take that approach, you need to also at the same time provide the necessary tools to say 'go away and don't bother me, you can do it your damn self' and make them relatively easy to get too. Otherwise your business walks. And dude, please, for the love of god, don't explain about how getting married and bending over to take it like a man are connected, not that there's anything wrong with that... but just ... Don't share. -----Original Message----- From: Scott Barnes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 21 March 2003 8:53 AM To: CFAussie Mailing List Subject: [cfaussie] Re: CFMX Updater 3 Released Dude, Pass the crack pipe around, and stop hogging it. Firstly, you use Opera? What kind of freak are you using an inferior browser other than IE.. accept the bain of Microsoft.. hey aren't you a microsoft weeny? I coulda sworn you have preeched some MS propergander here and there (watches all the java guys have that "lets get him look" about them). Secondly, The MM site to me and me being such a whacky bastard I am, is fine? I don't know what the frekin hell peoples issues are with the Site? Like step back and admire the view you kooky bastards. Its the typical shit though, you get something new out there and people start nailing the arms/legs of the new concept back to the wall and asking, "In the past we did this and that, and it worked".. to which I reply "In the past, I was single, enjoying life, allowed to perv on some of the fine hotties that walk past and my future consisted of whether or not I wanted to buy a Dirt Bike this year...or a new tiny god of a PC entertainment system" Back to reality.. I'm now married, babey on the way, paying a mortgage and I drive an astra instead of that "porsche" i had my eye on... Point is, with new things come new experiences, come new pains and above all NEVER GET MARRIED! :D So bend over, accept the new site, its not going to change back.
