Assimilation WOES!

[jinsonxu]

Sigh, i knew it was too good to be true.....One of my herd was my schoolmate who wasn't exactly good friends with me. Dunno how i managed to persuade him to join RC5 but he joined. His first tantrum:

ICQ
HIM

btw my other cousin computer (PIII 750Mhz with magix) has 1024 blocks in buff-out <buffer size was set to 3000>
I deleted the whole folder without flushing.

WHY?

to show that i mean what i say.

i believe i am quite an active member.

Stop teasing me or my computer from now on, everytime you say something teasing ,irritating ,annoying to me i shall remove one of the computers running. The computers of my relative which you will have absolutely no access to. The school computers which i have absolutely access to, during the Os or the december holidays where i am and WILL
come back.

Do we understand one another, kid?
dont mess with me i am in a bad mood today
i mean what i say.

My reply:

Check your ICQ history and list all the instances that i teased you about your computer.

By the way, unless you mature up enough to control your mood swings, please practice restraint instead of typing and posting on impulse, messages that you might regret having spoken out later.

By the way, this's just a suggestion. I didn't take anything of what you said to heart cause i'm assuming that you said it under the effects of your depressed mood. All the best and may your situation improve soon!

PS. Check the tone of your message. Don't refer to me as kid as i don't happen to be your junior, exactly the opposite. Not that i'm exacting a command of respect from you but merely mutual cordiality as fellow schoolmates.

Aha, i guess i solved it..
ICQ continuation

Him
oh yah?
i told u to laid off the teasing a lot of times
whose the one lacking respect

ME
Did i tease you? When? Where?

Him
every thing i flush i run rc5 on some computer u will go &quot;what only one ?&quot; &quot;so lousy ah&quot; &quot;so little work units ah?&quot;

ME
hmm, i only did that a couple of times.
Want to know the reason? Cause i nver know when you're tealling the truth. You doctor the screen output before sending to me.

By the way, go ask JH or Andy. You cna get them to send you their ICQ history. I actually thank them, even when they're just sending in 32 work units.

Him
but you should have common sense that my computer would never have the time or resources to do 2345456564346674455684 units or 3456347366433 units.
u tease me a few times i doctor a few thanks
never received a word of thanks to you but i just keep on running it.
you can check my output on the stats page.
heres the truth from day 1 i have flush
[Nov 03 14:48:23 UTC] 328 RC5 packets (8503 work units) remain in
buff-in.rc5
[Nov 03 14:48:23 UTC] Projected ideal time to completion: 23.00:41:42.00
[Nov 03 14:48:23 UTC] 9 RC5 packets (257 work units) are in buff-out.rc5
.....10%.....

10000 - 8503 = 1497
and plus the previous 156 and 203 units
i have flush in all 1856 units

ME
ok,
thanks
Actually, the reason why i didn't see the need to thank you before was cos you actually knew what RC5 was about and was doing it wholeheartedly unlike some others who had to be persuaded.
I think you just felt left out and unappreciated.
Just to tell you that that's not the case. Our team's proud to have a member like you with so much enthusiasm.

Him
but i still deserve a thanks now and then no matter how slow my cp was or how small my herd was

Me
no prob. I guess i overlooked your feelings on this one. Here're my apologies.

By the way, you're a pretty large contributer too!

Him
actually the 750MHz isnt running due to being sent to the repair shop
dont expect much out of this one its a packard bell. pk one of the worst brand in the market i think it woud be running RC5 only a few times in a month cos it very problematic

Me
No prob.

Him
sorry for the mood swing i was very irritated due to hte returning of the haze. my skin is breaking rashes and my eyes are sore and my computer seems to be in trouble

ME
Yep, there's a nick in HW forums for it. The brand's generally referred to by users as Packard Hell.
It's ok. I understand.
Go take a rest ok?
What trouble is your computer in? I might be of service?

Him
&quot;life is a mystery
once u solved it u die&quot;
------------- peter ford

guess today was one of those mysterious day
i think i just got zapped by an alien

ME
hehe, Don't stress yourself out. It's getting late too. Take a rest and all the best for the O'Levels!

All's well, i guess? How did i handle it?
