How you insult someone's intelligence and use the word "cuz" in the same sentence is beyond me.

I started with Tom's forums but the AMD vs Intel wars got wearisome.

I just checked AT's hardware forum and the people there are as helpful as they were in the good ole days that people keep writing about.

I used to post on Tom's forums a few years ago - it appeared to be completely unmoderated. I got tired of the bullsh|t and left. Pwned some idiot good on the way out though - claimed "his friend" worked for McDonnell Douglas - several years after they had been bought by Boeing and no longer existed.

Like someone said, every forum has smart and dumb posters. It seems to me, at least since I joined, that many threads are getting locked and many people are showing others disrespect.

Personally, I'd rather be here, mostly because it's more familiar.

Well... Do the fact that I don't know that so-named Tom makes me a morron ?

By the way... Is there the same kind of question right now on Tom's hardware forum ? Only 1 opinion is never good.

Love & Peace (& Anand)

No, it was like that before September...trust me. ;)

Tom's used to have an vomit inducingly ugly layout, so that kinda turned me off of going there. Now they use one of those generic pre-made forums.

On a different subjet, I originally thought overclocker websites would have "OMG, my overclock to 200000mghz is so 1337! I own your AMD, lama!" Then I actually went ot ocforums, and found them to be polite, mature posters who are incredibly mature.

Other than the occasional preview of upcoming cases, I don't bother with Tom's. I just stick with SPCR, they usually give me the type of info (or links to such info) that I'm interested in anyway.
