Re: Which do you prefer?

Look, I did not mean to start some kind argument. I was just trying to
point out that if you reply to these people that gives them what they
want.

Miss, or Ms,. Verity,

So you think I'm immature? My apologies, but Master Programmer, and Aaron
Kempf as well, have been getting posts from more folk than myself. Some very
good and well thought out posts as well. If I am immature to respond to a
person who is using profanity and degrading me as a human being, then so be
it. If you wish to just stick your head in the sand and hope that he will
just 'go away', then you are the immature one. He was here long before I
started posting here and he'll most likely be here long after I'm gone, from
the sound of things. I have done the 'right' mature thing and blocked any
messages from him from my newsreader. I do thank you for your response to
me, but you come across as a heavy-handed 'do what I say, not what I do'
type. If I am off-base on this, then I do submit my most abject apologies.
But before you start calling folks pathetic, think of what the reaction will
be to how YOU are perceived from your post.

You are just as immature and pathetic as Master Programmer. The only
reason he is still here is because he keeps getting a response from you
- and you always reply. I think you should both grow up.

So you admit that you cannot respond to a simple comment with anything
less
than complete and utter filth. A programmer of many years, such as you
claim
to be, is an educated individual who would not NEED to use such filth to
get
his point across. The only time I have seen the use of such language is
from
uneducated, young trolls on the Internet who think that the bastion of
separation that they are provided by the Internet allows them to speak
any
way they wish without consequence. Thank you for bearing out my
supposition
so clearly.

And I have not stated that commenting "every single line of code' is
necessary. YOU tried to put those words into my mouth. Quite unsanitary,
to
say the least. :) I simply stated that commenting code is a good business
practice.

I didnt call you a cake-hole you idiot, I told you to shut your
cake-hole (your fucking mouth). When you have aquired a lot of
experience (like me) then - AND ONLY THEN - will you be permitted to
add your opinion.

It is common knowledge that bad programmers leave comments (maybe not
so common around here - LOL). If you want to add a load of comments
saying what every single line of your code does thats up to you.
However if you were a real expert you wouldnt need to.

Master Programmer, long ago I learned never to consider myself an
'expert'.
The more I learn, the more I realize I don't know. I live with the
knowledge
that I am never going to 'know it all'. And yet, I am good with that. If
you
need the security blanket of the Internet to pound your chest and tell
the
world that you are better than anyone else, just remember... an 'ex' is a
has been... and a 'spert' is a drip under pressure!
