Ye' old general discussion board. Basically, for everything that isn't covered elsewhere. Come here to shoot the breeze, shoot your mouth off, or whatever suits your fancy. This forum is not for asking programming related questions.
Hey i saw illusionist post..
like 4times on 5 he's rude..
DUDE ppl are here to learn.. so stop telling them "try harder" or "have you even tryed!!" or "it s the most logical thing to me". if you think you can do it well HELP them instead of beiing rude..
if the question they ask is not appropriate.. you can ttell them in a POLITE way..
I don't see "It's the most logical thing to me" is rude. It is simply a opinion phrase. For example, their are 3 ways to give data to the browser(there may be more, I don't know). Print, Echo, and Heredoc. The most logical thing to me is to use echo, but that is because I have been using it foreever. Do you see what I mean?
I think he's referring to when people give others grief about the way in which they help out, instead of being grateful for receiving any help at all. There's no way to enforce decency, but if someone is being more of a pain in the ass than is worth dealing with, I simply opt not to deal with them. If someone else wants to put up with them, let them, otherwise the inconsiderate posters can either grow up or shut up.
By giving my opinion is considered being rude? How so may i ask? I was simply giving my opinion to him as to which way would be the best and easiest. And yes, i do get angry with people who jsut come on here asking for code. I think most people would agree with me that we are not here to do your work for you. If oyu find someone who will, good for you, but we are here to help you with the problems you have. You can try it yourself and if you have problems ask here. Don't jsut come here and ask for code, and expect to get it right away. Yes, i will point you in the right direction to find the information you need to atleast try something ony our own, but No i will not sit here and write your code for you. Sorry!
There's nothing wrong with being rude. I'm rude. It doesn't matter. The problem is when people direct their jackassery at the people trying to help them.
What is considered rude, varies across the world...
(Take the USA for example)
But isn't it rude to point fingers in public, and then when the person replies , and fairly reasonable too in my opinion, just be silent?
(edit: I did see your post after his comment saying "...but sometimes you are rude", but thats to clean to get away with. A 'sorry' would not be rude..)
Or was it all a "Winning hearts & minds" opperation?
Lol, Well rude nope. Not at all. Is it rude when somone says:
Next time look in the Manual.
If you are here to learn you should say here is a link to the manual. (Witch some do) Rude I am rude! And no offence to Nay but have you meet him on MSN? Illusion was so rude that I meet him and that same day he managed to help me and I gave him access to my hosting. He isn't rude. But that's just my opionion.
