Firestorm, I've gone through tons of the messages here and Pitsi is not stupid nor a fool.
I think he was a bit impatient with you, but when you post on public boards, you need to understand that people don't always read your posts the way you type them. what I mean is, you could be saying something with one attitude, and people read another attitude into it entirely. That is a limitation of text communication, and you need to be aware of that and prepared for it if you'll be posting here or anywhere else.
I myself have posted a stupid foolish thing once or twice here(some may argue more), the worst being a post I did late at night, where I advised someone to go with an Athlon 64 3000+ as he would have an upgrade path to FX later. The stupid thing about that was, and I knew this, but my head wasn't clear, those cpus use two different sockets, so there really isn't an easy upgrade path beyond replacing your ram, motherboard, and processor... I bring this up, because I've never read anything on par with that from Pitsi, and THAT was truly stupid...
Anyways, I'm just saying, Pitsi is one of the brighter people on this board IMHO. There are alot of bright people on this board, and any impatience on their part is not a sign of them being stupid. PIII Man hit the nail on the head, the way to rile their impatience is to do zero research on your own(or appear to) before posting here. I recommend getting in the habit of at least googling for answers and then posting questions for clarification for whatever you don't understand about what you find.
Even doing that will still not keep you entirely from the impatience of others. The only way to counter impatience is with your own patience, understanding that no matter how clear you think you are being, there will still be misunderstanding. Resorting to personal attacks will never help, unless you're on a board with lots of kiddie brained induhviduals...
I'll get off my soapbox now... Take care.
