Sigh...
You getting me wrong - i just love things with good parity of performance-quality-price thats all... it doesn`t matter for me who made them - Intel or AMD or VIA or... And example with my country was really dumb, sorry man.
And hey - this is partly a hardware thread is it? So just relax...
Actually this is software forum. "Chankast, how fast on your hardware" was hijacked in recent days by yourself in a various attempts to bate cooliscool into arguement. You even made jibes at him as too how fast his 3ghz processor would run BEFORE he got his motherboard. Please explain your logic?
I'm sorry but there is none. Don't hide behind the "balance of things" "Intel or AMD as long as its fast". I've been around (we all have here). It's flaimbaiting, plain and simple. To no effect and it serves noone but yourself. I've sat here and watched it and become more and more dissapointed (no, not angry I'm not into that, it's your silly arguement not mine).
Cooliscool has already been more than polite and asked you too stop. You did for a bit (say 1 day?) and then as soon as he shares his news of his upgrade to an another Intel CPU, you started again.
This forum is Chankast. Not AMD/Intel wars. Please stop playing games with me and with others here. It's getting old and quickly.
Nightmare, please look at my posts. Do I come across as undereducated, limited in my views or non-worldly? I grew up in an immigrant family. From poor beginnings. My famly escaped the Holocaust and started a new life here. Life was hard, complicated and generally stressful. The ghosts of nazi demons still haunt our family to this day.
My comments on Russia stand. I realise that it may seem offensive but it was too make a point. That sometimes even the truth is better avoided to save ppl's feelings. ie my rubbing your nose in it comment. It is not enough to call Russia a young democracy. It isn't one. It won't be one for some years too come. It's on its way yes, but it does have some SEVERE problems with MAFIA. This I KNOW to be fact. If I didn't I wouldn't say it.
The point was to make it clear that some things just don't need to be said. Nor do they need to be repeated ad nauseum. We should be able to accept whatever differences we have here and bloody well just move along.
Yes, there have certainly been times when I have raised the ire of Trotterwatch with some of my posts. But my points have never been invalid. I have just been heavy handed at those times and have been treated accordingly.
I only ask that Strange does the same. Even handed behaviour AKA Tolerance is the only way this "globalised" world will ever get along. Like it or not (and I really *really* do) this is one of the most international emulation or technology forums for that matter I have ever had the pleasure to be a part of.
Tolerance does not mean that you should accept what I have to say or what I believe, but it does mean that you should give me and others the room to say what we feel. It certainly doesn't mean flaimbating. No sirree.
That's the complete opposite of tolerance. That, dear freinds, is where things like Nazism take root. What starts as a tease can very easily end up in divisionism. All I ask is that Strange find more than just one thread to post in here for the moment so that others may feel more comfortable when posting here too. I have been watching this thread disintegrate into stupid discussions of bus speed overclocking possibilities - none of which his spit to do with Chankast.
Maybe if Strange didn't feel the need to bait here I wouldn't feel the need to respond with this "essay".
