lol, u must be slow or something. Two things:

1. The response times on this forum aren't as fast as you may think.
2. Calling people slow will make them NOT wan't to reply.

I can't do that.
The king of he potato people won't let me.

listen mr flibble, the response times are as fast as i think. i didn't join yesterday moron. most of the time you get a response at least within a couple of days not months. and look how lucky i am to get you to respond! oh, do you have any productive advice....what's that....no?....well STEP OFF LOSER! go work on jelly wars....

by the way, you're slow! (this is supposed to make you not want to reply to this extremely negative but ridiculously funny post)

* don't act like a jerk and flame! this is supposed to be funny! you people need to learn to laugh! the computers are taking over your young minds! besides, you people think im going to let a guy named "mr flibble" talk to me like that? i mean really, what's up with the stuffed penguin avatar? ha ha..?. that's another joke if you didn't catch it (all in fun! nobody's gotten an eye poked out yet). but to be honest penguins are very respectable animals mr flibble. *

by the way, is it ok if i name my imaginary friend mr. flibble? no copyright infringements or anything right? since im sure you have a nice franchise going and all... mr flibble cookies, lunchboxes, kid's show, line of clothing, stuffed penguin for the kiddies, action figures... right?

what about: SET SUBTLETY ON MemberName

Yes, I bought it - if you've use DBClassic I think its worth it. If not then it all depends how much you want to see a lot of older DB games - some of which DO have useful source code that can be adapted for use in DBPro...

The character Mr Flibble comes from a British TV Show called "Red Dwarf".

Stop, think about what you said and how arrogant and stupid it sounded. Now don't come here again until you're ready to behave properly.

I agree David.....if you were here mR n, we'd probably slap you.

Now do one until you can interact with fellow users properly.

....oh the seriousness is slowing seeping into me!..... stop it!...

hhmmm, where were all of you bright and colorful people in the last month (that nobody replied)? i wonder... if you didn't realize it I WAS JUST MESSING AROUND. i got tired of being so polite. if you can't laugh at a random guy off the net every once in a while or at least just shrug it off without chastising him you need to lower the amount of stress and/or seriousness in your lives. im sure you'll live years longer! (for health reasons and the fact that people won't beat the crap out of you as often because you're always a stiff) so heed the words of wise mr.n: don't be like david89 or moonshine. and by the way, so what if i am arrogant and stupid david89? it takes great skill to be oblivous but still be better than everyone else! - another example of a joke! not serious!

* to polyvector - i expect a fully functional copy of myself in code by monday. keep up the good work and thanks for the pictures (im a star, too)!

* oh and thanks GCEclipse for your thoughts on dbarchives that NO ONE ELSE THAT'S POSTED HAS DONE!

Calm down everyone

@mR n, People generally only answer this sort of question if they have the package, but nobody has to answer you. In fact, you can probably now guarantee that several people won't in the future

IanM is correct. Most people (including me) think you ara an arrogant idiot who spams. Most people do not have db archieves. And that is why no one posted. I myself, and probably a lot more people, might not want to give you advice for fear you snap at them. Why Ian did not lock this thread, I don't know, but if you do this again, I bet it will be locked (and you may end up being banned)

I think this thread requires it's own tutorial on how to deal with Boober...errrm....mR n.....

How To Deal With mR n
When mR n approtches you in a dark alley saying:
Quote: "hhmmmm, guess you losers haven't bought it yet..."

> Stay calm! "Don't act like a jerk and flame!"...
> Avoid being hummorless... Pay close attention to the sublties of the text on your screen... Try taking a closer look at your monitor... You may be suprised at what you see:


> Note that saying something AWFUL like:
Quote: "u must be slow..."

Will yield something FUNNY like:
Quote: "you're slow!"

Note: To the untrained eye, the two quotes seem similar... BUT DON'T LET THAT FOOL YOU! The first is hummorless and is slowing seeping the seriousness into mR n.

Summary:
If he ticks you off... It's because he's only being funny... This is analogous to the way Patch Adams is funny... If you don't follow, this simply means that mR n won't make you laugh, unless you're 5 years old and have cancer...
