I gave a very to-the-point comment on something George wrote, and you barge in uninvited with irrelevancies. So who is trolling??? :roll:
I knew you could not stop.
So why did you start? And why do you continue? :roll:

What I see is a friendly discussion until you jumped in with childish smileys and confrontational remarks.

Ah, use of smileys is an offense here, that makes you fair game for any name calling? So why are they smileys in the posting menu, if using them is undesired behavior? Can you explain me that?

And 'confrontational' in your dictionary means disagreeing with any false or short-sighted remark? That Shredder Classic is the ultimate gift to mankind, and the panacea for every conceivable task is gospel, and those who put question marks to it are blasphemous heretics, distracting the believers from their worship, and should best be burned at the stakes? Is that it?

As someone remarked so succinctly in another thread: It must indeed be trolling season...

Not only do you troll, but you put words in people's mouths that they never said.

You are an untruthful troll. Why are you obsessed with me?

It seems you are obsessed with me. What you quote was not directed at you. So why do you reply to it? My initial suggestion for why people could want another GUI than Shredder was not directed at you. Why did you reply to it?

Nothing would make me more happy than to see you disappear, or in fact when you had never apeared here at all, if you cannot rise above the level of name calling and making stupid remarks. That is how obsessed I am with you...

What is a musquito? Is that a new tequila drink?
