    The influx of "kiddies"? :)

    Has anyone noticed the ever-increasing amount of posts on this forum (as well as others) from kids?

    When I say kids, I'm not talking about age (they usually are underage), but also about intelligence level...
    Hope this forum and the others don't turn out to be a madonion

      Nope

      Let me be more specific though. "Kiddie" posts can be from kids or adults (most likely kids though) and usually contain:

      - bias (product x is better than product y just because, i own product x, and let me tell you how much it rocks because i own it)
      - name-calling (comes in many, many forms)
      - stupid, repetitive questions (g550/g800 anyone? )

        You're just jealous because my new G-Force 5.7 is faster than your 5 year old G400, you fool! Anyone know if and when Matrox is gonna come out with a new card though?

          Fool?

          Who's the idiot with the outdated hardware?! Haven't you heard of the GeForce12? Which, by the way, will run faster on my pentium 7 than your athlon 3. (All thanks in part to the RDRAM PC2000 that kicks QDRAM a$$)

          Geez, you need to get out more often, Matrox announced that they wouldn't make an announcement on the G550.

            Allow me to add "The USA sucks, because I don't live there!" to the list of "kiddie" posts.

                Could we all just agree to disagree on the whole USA is/isn't ok deal ?

                There's been all too much of this lately, and I doubt that discussing it/arguing about it/shouting about it will change anybody's mind on the subject.

                    Too bad they closed the Bush thread... on another board I frequent it is still alive, has 28 pages and is getting warmer and warmer every day.

                    Okay I'll stop now.
                    Someday, we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and change the subject.

                      Lol, just saw this post on the Microsoft Windows XP Preview Program NG, thought it was appropriate for this thread:

                      "AMD Duron/Thunderbird still better than the PIII and PIV... Cheaper... and
                      still a run for Intel... Even though Intel has 1.4 and 1.5 and soon to be
                      1.7ghz...
                      AMD is still the best choice."

                      And the response:

                      "Who cares.
                      We're talking about Windows, not cpu's.
                      Jerry"

                      Almost seems an appropriate comeback (although from another forum):
                      Well, that's why i got an Althon not a p4. Because if the althon dies it's funny if a P4 dies, it cost $$$."

                        You people and your unguided misconceptions.

                        Everyone knows that best place in the world to live in North Korea. Admit it! Deep down inside, that's where you really want to live.

                            "Kids" is a relative thing.
                            To me you are just about all kids.

                              Gurm, what I meant was to agree to disagree and respect each others opinions and values Should have made that clearer.
