His posts are a little defensive and maybe a touch hostile, but I'm pretty sure it's because he's passionate about watercooling. I don't think he resorted to personal attacks.

And if that's the most awful person you've ever come across on in a forum ... don't ever go into the Official Steam or WoW forums. ("Politics and News" forum here on Anand shouldn't even need a mention.)

just tired of his passive aggression and ignorance, wants to pick a fight, i'll just delete thread

I'm sad that you'll just try and get the thread deleted.

I thought there was some useful information in here.

Actually there are quite a few Doctorate level degrees that are not PhD.

you're correct, I owned myself .

still, the PhDis the most common doctoral degree awarded in the united states and back when the term Doctor of Philosophy was developed, Philosophy referred to every field outside of theology, medicine and law, meaning that, for example, a Doctor of Education could be viewed simply as a Doctor of Philosophy who focused on Education and wanted to feel special by having their own special letters to tack onto the end of their name.
