I know this forum has some lousy flame-wars, personal attacks, accusations of bad moderation, and every other nasty thing people can do on the Internet on it, from time-to-time.
But today I got a new one that just takes the cake, and wanted to share!
Was getting a couple Sharepoint errors in the event log on a particular SBS 2008 box. Spent a couple hours researching and trying different solutions, without success. So I posted in a forum of like-minded techy users, specifically related to SBS questions.
Instead of a helpful response, I get this guy commenting about how I should just scrap everything, and upgrade to Office 365 and VM's for my servers, instead. When my particular server still works well, is still supported by Microsoft, and only has a couple errors in the event log.
He basically turns my thread asking for help with a couple error messages into a platform to sell Microsoft software upgrades.
So after I tell him that his advice is not helpful or relevant, he throws my entire thread into moderation, and says "I'm an admin, I can do what I want!"
Man, what a jerk-hole! I swear, if I was closer, I would punch this guy's lights out! Grrr! I am so mad about it! Despite all the smiley face emoticons!
Anyhow, be glad we've got it as good as we do here at amiga.org, even if people should learn "if they don't have something helpful to say, don't say anything at all" a little more, haha. :lol: :lol: :lol:
