RANT TIME!!!
@ziggy
we're volunteers.. we may do as we wish on this board while respecting the rules.
yes, i too would like to see limewires userbase become quite big (already is). but im not going to help someone who doesnt want to first help themselves by doing an easy thing called search and read.
even while i was a newb to limewire (we all were at some point) i have a natural curiousity to figure things out by myself. atleast by trial and error.
we do not sponsor this product. we however do use it. if you feel that its not worth it, then use something else eh? it doesnt effect my ability to share my files with others.
rude? no, just tired and frustrated at people that come here expecting this to be realtime support and that they are special enough to deserve it. well i got news for ya, you may have been special to yo momma, but you damn sure is hell not special to me.
ignorant? then why do people ask me/us for advice, tips, and support?
simple questions? yes. alot are. some are even posted as stickies, but even though they have been answered numerous times, and posted as stickies, people still ask the same questions. still simple? well some questions are quite difficult to understand and answer because that person doesnt understand what they are doing. they dont have a clue about technology in general. they expect it to work with there setup without an ounce of configuration. the microsoft people have really corrupted the publics view of "simplistic and minimalistic". although i cant blame them entirely. but limewire was intended to be as easy as it gets. but it still requires configuration and tweaking to get full optimization.
and you are not the only one that feels this way. i can assure you of that. your anger at us is much the same as ours if not more at these drones of people that just "aint gotta clue"
