You still seem to be leaving 3 key words off the end of that quote.

i dont see how die die die, has any effect on what i said.

and im not here to argue my warning...

just saying 6 months is a really long time.................mabye 3 months?

i got a similar warn for the same thing except with aol

i dont see how it counts as flame baiting...both of them are true and noted universally =\

Guess you'll pay more attention to the rules next time, huh?

Maybe some mods should also have to pay attention to those rules as well. There are also posts around here where mods have taken part in flame fests only to have other mods come in and edit posts and warn other users but the comments of the other mod(s) were left in tact.

If the rules are the rules then they should apply to everyone.

Stop making a fuss... warns aren't that big of a deal providing you don't make any problems again...

We are here to make sure the community doesn't go to hell... and we do a good job at it... and if a mod is breaking a rule... you should report it by contacting another staff member. Specially a supervisor.

Mods don't edit other mods posts... stepping on each others toes is just rude.

If you see a situation like that, then you should bypass the "Report" function, and discuss it with a Supervisor directly. If you are talking about a particular recent situation, PM Me and I will look in to it.

I guess I don't quite understand that. The situation was a mod posting something against the rules, wasn't it? So, you're saying that you wouldn't edit what another mod said simply because you don't want to step on his toes?

What does that make a regular members toes? If someone breaks the rules the post should be edited. At least, my impression was such, anyway. But hey, best of luck not stepping on any "important" members toes.

I think the point was that we don't edit posts for the purpose of changing their meaning (or to put words in people's mouths). If something is against the rules then that portion of the message will be removed or the post will be deleted. That sort of thing doesn't matter if they are members or staff.

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By eiffel_g · Posted

      Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
