    Ah, nostalga

    While I was doing laundry recently, I decided to do some housecleaning on my subscriptions here. You know, get rid of the old ones that I probably didn't participate in properly when I first joined Copytechnet, or ones that didn't have any useful technical information from any topic other than "Rants and Raves".
    Anyway, I came across this:
    Can I delete my account from this useless website?
    and found it just as epic as when I first encountered it.

    I must have missed that one. Thank you for the link. I enjoyed looking through it. I was almost tempted to go to his profile and look at some of his posts, almost.

    I must confess that I'm not usually quite that candid, but I just couldn't resist. He's managed to totally ignore the subtle, and the not so subtle comments. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    Yep, an arrogant, ignorant, self-righteous asshole, that was him.

    I'm not sure. He may have showed up again, but I put him on my ignore list right after this.
    Actually, I think he did show up once more as that is how I discovered the ignore list blocks the text in the body of a post rather blocking the post entirely.

    Thanks for bringing up that thread. I needed a good laugh this morning. You bunch of useless techs...


    Reuse waste toner... I wander if he re-eats his own waste so as to save money on food.

    EDITED to add:

    So I'm sitting here waiting for a part. I could be doing tons of paperwork, which absolutely needs to be done, but I'm reading through this guy's posts instead.

    I can absolutely not stop laughing at this one:

    HP JetDirect 610N compatible with HP CLJ CM3530?

    Oh yeah, THAT guy. I had never seen one of his posts until he asked to be deleted, and then I started reading his posts. My first thought was this guy had to be messing with us, he could not be at all serious about the questions he was asking--couldn't be!! If he was indeed serious he went out of business, there would be no way he could make it in business.
