I am registered there. Never went back after the "expert" couldn't answer a simple question. All i wanted to know was did XP have the AMD AGP bug patch in it already or would i have to install the Windows 2k version. Instead i get some blather about update your drivers and i wanted to scream. Nothing is worse than an "expert" giving advice on something that the person clearly knows zero about. So i never went back. Good thing the AGP thing can be solved so easily in Linux. :D

absofuckinglutely!
i find it hard to follow many of the threads at the windows BS, although many of the people posting in those threads carry on as if they know exactly what each other are talking about...
sporkme:
has anyone ever been banned from here? particularly: has anyone been baned for being a windows drone?
the banning tells us one very important thing: they are scared
they have accomplished one thing: it is not an anti-windows forum. most ms sites are flooded with posts from the next step in evolution... LINUX USERS!
those missing links can have thier insecure server and insecure mods. i say fuck them...
i have an idea. lets all go into a thread where someone is asking a halfway-technical question and post "freemypc.com has some answers for you"

firstly, the Windows BS is NOT hosted on a Microsoft server. they use Apache/1.3.19 (Unix) mod_gzip/1.3.19.1a mod_perl/1.24_01 mod_throttle/2.11 FrontPage/4.0.4.3 mod_ssl/2.8.3 OpenSSL/0.9.6b on Linux.
Secondly, i can confirm that nobody has EVER been banned from using the forums at fuckmicrosoft.com board.
there was one instance when somebody set up multiple accounts masquerading badly as other posters on the board just to clog up the forums with drek. The webmaster deleted their account and set up a situation where you could only have one account per email address, here's the pertinent page here, but that's the only time it has happened, and the secretive cunt wasn't really banned, as far as i know he can sign up again if he wants (and i suspect, he has).
Master of Reality:
i went to WindowsBS at 3:00 BT and i got to reply to about 40 posts before i passed out. When i woke up i was banned... so i used www.the-cloak.com to read some replies to my post.... none of the replies were very bad.
