    Going To The Mac Forum And Saying They Suck, or Vise-Versa


    Vise-Versa. I'd go around telling people that if they had a Mac it would be much easier......it's true, but I didn't need to post it.

    I think my biggest mistake was talking to TGPO, since he thinks any computer sucks if it's not a Mac....

    This should be a funny poll

    I voted "asking about warez movies." But let me qualify that. It was more telling someone HOW to convert it. I am at a loss as far as movies goes as to what's warez and what's not. The last movie I saw in a theatre was Happy Gilmore. I just trained myself not to answer posts with the words "internet" and "divx" in them....

    That would be burning an iso image file as a data file and wondering why the cd didnt work.I guess that would count for hijacking a thread.

    Mine would be wrong forum I guess, but I imagine I've been guilty of hijacking and when I started I guess I posted before reading the guides.
    A banning offence now, apparently.

    You should have added: Posting questions before reading any of the guides. That's the classic newbie mistake. Newbie's get their head ripped off every day for this.

    That's another good one. Then their explanation is, Help Please TMPGEnc Crashes or My burner doesn't work, and that's it. Replies will be like please explain what you are doing, what are your settings. Newbie's need to know they need to supply as much info as they can.
