Please. Read it. Search the forums. Search the guides. Read the help threads. Search the internet. Find the answer yourself, or at least make an attempt. If, after looking for it, you STILL can't find it, THEN you can come to me, and instead of screaming at you/LARTing you/ripping you to shreds with my bare hands for being too incompetent to actually look for help, if I know the answer, I will actually TELL YOU. Possibly even GLADLY.

"WHUT DO I DOO HIER?"
Die, please.

"Oh great Ian, font of all knowledge, I have searched long and hard in the guides/on the forums/on the internet, but I can't seem to find where to look for this/the answer to it. Can you help me, please? I'll give you my firstborn!"
Oh, ok, sure. You can find that *here*/Ok, what you do is *this*. Do you understand, or shall I explain it again/walk you through/do it for you because you're still too incomptent, but at least you tried.

I am not a help desk. >_>;

[Tact]

What am I supposed to say about that? Can you tell me, Ian? Oh, just kidding. It happens to me with my PSO-playing friends.

I can relate with you on this, my colleagues are the most ignorant ppl to walk the face of earth. My goodness their idiocy makes chimps look like Einstein. "Hey... how to I turn on the computer" *walks over, presses "on" button, walks away* "Oh my, you sure know alot about computers" Damn, and that is just one simple example. They dont even bother to look up the customers phone numbers even though our whole god damn software is based on searching existing clients by: name, city, zip, state, phone. etc etc... So if you have any of these you could locate the client. Of course, that is, if the client information was inputed into the database to begin with *sigh*...

[HUnewearl_Meira]

All I can say on this subject, is that I have actually had someone inform me that their keyboard doesn't have a "Start" button after I told them to hit the button on a program labeled, "START".

...this is because of me, right? http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_disapprove.gif

Nah, you're not nearly that important. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif

You, Wazzy, my mother, etc. Just anyone. n.n

[Mixfortune]

[23:46] <Shurikane> Oh. My. Fucking. God. On. A. Haagen-Dasz. Stick.

Hmm, yes. Earlier today I played E1C4, the stage with De Rol Le. One of the hunters was using a brand on the head. He didn't use a sword because he "doesn't like them". Yay...

He was also asking what the S-Rank time was for the particular stage. He knew that all stages under seven hours bit, but that didn't stop him from stopping to type out his question over and over again on what the S-Rank time was for C4... gah!

I was paralyzed and the FO, with no antiparalysis left. I asked for antiparalysis, but the others didn't have any... ok, that's fine, my TP was low anyways, so I'll die for TP and use a scape to get rid of my antiparalysis. The next room the hunter dropped 3 antiparalysis. Yay?

He said it was his first time doing E1C4... but C'MON! He wasn't even following the basics of CMode. He kept following me into the box rooms trying to destroy the boxes and get all the items. Argh!

At the end he called us Ash Holes. Oh no!

You should have been here last year back during the "admins are Nazis" era.

[Armok]

PSO world is never fun. It seems like it at the time but then again so do drugs.

Say NO to PSO World - No seriously.

And on idiots asking questions. Go look at GFAQ and then come back and just be happy at least there isnt 17 topics per minute asking how you open a gamecube to put in a disc.

[Madzozs]

Hey Ness, at that time, the third reich has taken over the admins. I was there. In fact, I was involved, but thats besides the point.

I was there too. I saw a couple of people get banned as well and saw the threads a few of them made. They didn't seem that bad to me. They were just doing their jobs as far as I'm concerned. I defended them then and I would do so again if I had to.

Real life x2:

I'm studying whatever you study to get a Higher National Diploma on computerized systems administration or however it is called, spanish version, 1st grade.

1)So, in the middle of the year just after Xmas, a new student comes. And the first day the VERY FIRST THING he said to me was "Erm.. I got this CD with things I wanna have in the computer, so... how do I pass them from the CD to the PC?"

Obviously, my first thought was "WTF IS THIS GUY DOING HERE!?!?!" and the second "if he doesnt even know to get the CD data into the hard drive, how the hell did he burn it in the first place!?!" and he lives alone, so no outside help for him. I am still wondering about the second question.

2)I got this classmate that without even looking for it on his notebooks, he has asked me like 10 times during the last three months "what's the difference between a router and a modem?" u_u could someone kill him? I'm too tired to do it.
