Guys, come on. I thought we were done with that. You want to keep discussing it, take it to PMs or email or something.

Yes I am sick of him bringin it up. Why can't he accept I had the problem and move on. I'm not gonna feed him anymore. He obviously is behaving like a troll would. Trolls like to come to forums that are not very active, stir up mess, and get long term members crazed and mad and make them leave so they can spam the place. His username seems very random since i do not find anything in google under that username. He also comes on here questioning us using a server os instead of using windows seven. Then he says that windows 2008 workstation has no real performance gains over windows seven, and constantly saying that my gaming performance increase is NOT from server 2008, when I clearly tried borderlands in windows seven 64 bit RTM and my FPS on this same system was 15-20 FPS LOWER (as well as with other games like Dragon age origins and assassins creed). I also get much better multimedia performance from R1 than 7, vista, and R2 (*)!

But I did get great performance on R2 when I did try it and I would be using it if it was as easily configurable as R1 was to get the pimped out workstation experience and to get superfetch working without dedicating a whole day to getting it work right. As well as my architecture software not running right in R2. Also my company bought me R1 around late OCT of last year and they don't feel it is much different for them to purchase me the two copies as well as the other 200 and some pcs that use this in thier company. They picked a server os becuase the way the architecture software is designed. The company is using custom software that is the only in the industry that can group edit in real time and our software uses resources that server OSes support. Alao server 2008 R1 and R2 have windows system resource manager.... need I say more!



(*)windows media player did crash alot on R2 and I think it's related to the new codec set that is bundled with it (R2's is slightly different becuase features it depends on in 7 are not present in R2), as well as playlist control being different due to the slighly different backing store config. it's best to start your playlists over in WMP12 becuase of this. But it does suck for people like me with over 30 used playlists a day allready created in wmp11.

Well, people can judge for themselves.

No other user considers me to be a troll, but then I have not had altercations with any other user. Well, I did with one, JonusC, who was able to discuss the matter on a technical level and concede that he was wrong.

I joined this forum because I use R2 as my workstation, and was actually on this website since 2003.

I am not trying to trouble shit up, and everything I say can be backed up by a technical reference. I like to debate things on a technical level, as objectively as possible.

I understand that some people are incapable of that, and consider their incorrect interpretations of events to be facts, however that does not make the people who call them out on such behavior trolls.

What we need is for a third party with an actual technical understanding such as Arris or JonusC to get involved, and correct certain peoples views. Until intervention, this kind of rubbish will continue, since it goes unchecked.

And your saying I have no tech understanding. woah you are the one being judgemental. They prolly won't want to replicate it since it involves a reformat. It is very complicated to replicate this. I lost 1 months worth of data over this. I WOULD NOT LIE ABOUT A SITUATION LIKE THIS! I would fire up a VM to show you but your not worth the 3 hours it takes to get to the ability to replicate the situation.

Also BTW you cannot google this becuase most people don't go through that or mess with windows update services.

Just admit I had the problem allready, get over it, and move on with your life. Are you an older 50 year old person who talks me down becuase I'm younger then you? or are you some emo 16 year old who thinks the world hates you so you have to take your pain and frustrations out on others? Becuase I feel sorry for you if you do.

Just becuase I don't word things like a PHD doesn't mean I am not technical. I like to put things into words common folks can understand so they can learn from me, and not use things that are over thier heads. I train people in this kinda stuff everyday and they love how I teach them becuase I put in it plain english and not to jargon it up too much like some people do. I try to make computers less intimidating for people, and doing that they come into computers as less of a n00b.

I can't belive you are still so obsessed about it. You must be obsessed with me. I am quite flattered you waste your time on my situation. Do you care about me or something? I appreciate it if you do.

Did this site even exist in 2003??? I don't think MS even had much info about server 2008 back then?? LOLz

I apologise to the other readers. After talking to some other members on the site, I understand this is a lost cause and won't bother responding from now on.

Just to clarify some points however:

I was reading this site back in 2003 when it was focused on server 2003. I am certain it is the same basic site, updated as the versions progressed.

I am not a judgmental person at all. The reason I don't consider you to be technical is for the claims you make, since they illustrate your lack of understand. The claims you have made in this thread about CPUs for instance.

You seem to be taking my pointing out that you were incorrect very personally, when there is no need to. I don't think you are deliberately lying, nor do I make any judgements as to the type of person you are. I only note what is stated, and that it is incorrect. I don't much care for anything past that.

Anyway. After checking with other members on the site and seeing that this is your normal pattern of behavior, there isn't any point in responding. I should have figured that out the first time you accused me of being a troll and misogynist simply because I disagreed with you.

Bah, so you assume this becuase my posting style is different. You're right, you are wasting your time. But your registration date is very new. Is this a new account at this site?? if so why?

You were accusing me of lying, you were accusing me of things and making me look bad just becuase you have a strange fixation with my problem, witch is not googleable, not everything is. Theres a eurodance singer I like but theres no info about her online anywhere. Does that mean she doesn't exist becuase she is not on goggle. She wouldn't becuase that is what your reasoning is. LOLz.

You are a lost cause. Plain as that. Nobody had a problem on here until YOU showed up.

I am a very technical person, I just don't have to show it in the most articulate geeky ways. I am smooth at it and make my points into words real people can understand, not geekbots.

Hi,
Windows 7 has just came and it's really great that windows 8 must be coming so soon.

I heard that it would have 64bit support not 128bit.

ZOMG I missed the trolling in Open Topic! You all smell like pine trees!

*Throws cheese at Indrek*
*Kicks a buffalo with "J.F. was 'ere" painted on it*
*Hisses at R.C.*

Win.

Dunno how this all started but the three of you are just as stubborn/proud as the other. And we're all as equally geeky here, there's no need to argue about who has the biggest spacebar or flattest mousemat - look at the fudging forum we're on!

ON TOPIC, yeah... Windows 8..... a.k.a Not-windows-at-all-just-made-to-look-that-way-to-publicize-better Midori Experiment....

I was disappointed in your reply Jonus. As one of the few people with established technical cred on this forum, I was hoping you could weigh in and dispell some pretty blatant misconceptions. It seems you, along with everyone else is too polite to do so.

"this started" because some people are saying some outrageous, factually incorrect things, and some people are calling them on it.

It isn't to do with being stubborn, it's only about trying to get people to realize that factual evidence is worth slightly more than a misinterpreted anecdote.

RemixedCat you don't happen to be Liz Kowalsky, Game designer/3D Modeller of Badash Games (http://badashgames.blogspot.com/)?

I have seen some of your work and it's quite impressing, keep it up!

You seem to have quite a lot of experience in computers and in the technical area, what's your honest opinion of 64-bit computing and Windows Server 2008 / R2?
