Why i.... Calm down cipro, take a deep breath and relax. Now I'm calm again, I would like to say than you for spotting my mistake, and correcting it. Have you also noticed this guy jez is posting the same twaddle (got it right there) allover the place.

Spam, thats what it is, rather than joining discussions hes spamming up the place to advance his post and word count. I shall inform SR if this continues Jez, so I'll advise you to stop now.

1) Don't quote a whole post just to add a few lines on the bottom, that is blatant word count trickery and gets you nowhere but in forum user's bad books.

2) When did I whine? I have been having a sensible discussion (read argument) with IB, so quit whinging.

If you've read a review, and though it was wrong or tried a cheat to find it doesnt work? if you have, tell the person who posted it what you think. post there nickname on here and write what they've done to annoy you (go to pc gaming then to arguments). Keep it clean though. We dont want any name calling! Check this thing regularly to see if your on there, and stand up for yourself!

You STILL miss the point. No matter what the argument consists of, I was using it as an illustration ONLY to prove my point. Try reading my posts properly.
