    Ridicule???

    Without mentioning anyone in particular, it does seem to me that a certain poster(s) here must be taking the piss out of us. I can't believe people who ask the kinds of questions that have popped up here can even use a keyboard to make the post.

    Re: Ridicule???

    I think I know who you're talking about. Tell me, has he ever listened to anyone's advice? If not, why does he post questions? The answer is simple. He wants to get everyone upset. Solution: Ignore his posts. Do NOT reply. Eventually, after receiving no attention, he will go away. Either than that, someone should start a poll and see how many want him gone. The administrator can give him the "our members have spoken, so na na na na, hey, hey, hey,...your gone" speech and kick him off here.

        There's a difference between stupid questions and idiots who ask one, make up their own answer, and then refuse to listen to experts advice. I don't have a problem with anyone else on the site, just him.

            Hans,
            I was confused at first, but I know your English is on par or better than mine. It took me a second. I get the joke. =^..^=
            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.

              I didn't get it until I read Blackcat's post. I don't have a problem with him. At least he's funny and he only wants stuff for free. I can understand that, don't we all? It's the moron that said he wanted to leave this site and then promptly posted a question, stated what he thought the answer was, and slammed everyone else's reply. That one has more than the normal couple of screws loose.

                I think they are pretty easy to spot! They start out saying "I am a tech", then the question is "Who has firmware?" or " How do I get in to tech rep mode?"

                      I have no idea who you are talking about but forums in a way do open themselves up for ridicule. An outsider reading Copytechnet where we talk about office laser printers might think "I can have some fun here" and start threads about why he thinks inkjets are far superior to lasers and the reason he refills his toner cartridges.

                        I refill my inkjet cartridges with a mixture of melted crayons and vegetable oil. I then use the empty oil bottles to make large ink cartridges for my HP printer. I am paying .0000385 per page. Beat that dual component systems!! On my Canon, it get a colander from the kitchen and sift the waste toner out, mix it with pencil shavings, and dump it back in the DV unit. I have to set the charges considerably lower to prevent ignition of the shavings, and my fuser rolls seem to fail prematurely; but I'm only paying .000438 per page!!!!

                          This post deserves a round of applause. I personally use olive oil and they have to be Crayolla brand crayons.

                            When I first read this person's request to delete his account, and the responses given to him, I decided to read his posts to find out what everyone was talking about. I read 15-20 of his posts and figured all this guy wants to do is argue with people. It wouldn't have mattered what was said, or how many facts were given, he was gong to argue against it. If he is gone we'll be better off.
