Duh. Perhaps you should actually read the thread, before you make one of your patented smart ass posts. I was making reference to the resident asshole who jumped all over Graham's ass simply for posting a link to a site that is encouraging PureBasic discussion (I know many here consider it horrible that somebody wants to actually support PB and make a contribution). Trust me when I say, Graham back to posting on the PB forums and giving it some attention is a good thing. Graham is very welcome here, in spite of the way some have treated him in this thread.

*edit* And don't feel singled out Graham. You should see the flack Fred gets from the piss and moan brigade with each new update or upgrade he releases. :mrgreen:

I'm not reading your reply because it was just a test to see if you were still reading my posts after you repeated told me you put me on ignore.

I'm happy to see my evaluation of you was correct :)

OK, no more to add. Thank you.

Just thought that I would make a comment about some of the posts that I have read here in this topic. Some seem to think that Codeinbasic is Graham's site. It is not,... it is my site. Since Codeinbasic is dedicated to a number of different dialects of basic, including Purebasic, I believe that Graham was just trying to let people know that there was a new basic language dedicated site available for anyone who might be interested. Codeinbasic is not attempting to steal members away from any particular site but rather, to offer another site for basic lovers to share ideas and to encourage others to learn the joy of programming in the basic language. I am a member of a number of forums including Liberty Basic, IWBasic, Coding Monkeys, Freebasic, PowerBasic and now Purebasic and I see nothing wrong with that. If I locked myself into using one forum only, I think I would be missing a lot of interesting and new things in the world of basic.

The war of words has spread over onto my site and I asked tenaja to try to be a little more civilized in his posts. His response was to post even more flaming remarks and accusations. This type of flaming of other users is not something that would encourage anyone join our forum or any other forum for that matter. For that reason I have had to ban tenaja from posting. I don't like to have to ban anyone but in this case I think it is in the best interest of the forum and its members.

I'm sorry to see that such a innocent comment by Graham has caused such attention and such a large discussion here on the Purebasic forum. Again,... I don't believe that there was any malice intended by Graham nor by Codeinbasic. I apologize for any inconvenience or misconceptions that may have developed about the Codeinbasic forum as a result.

Cheers. :)

I'm sorry I've obviously upset you so much. Wish I could take it all back. :(

There're too many Basic websites, but lack of Acidic sites, the internet will become no more "Neutral"....

Cheers indeed Columbo.
I think that you have acted on a good idea by creating that web site.
Thanks for making the effort, and I wish you a long and happy journey on that path. :D

Here in America, for the most part we are involuntarily drugged, which may explain some of what we post at times. :wink:

GWS, welcome (back?) and I hope that you continue posting here.
Keep it BASIC.

I do not believe I said anything anywhere near as inflamatory as claiming the PureBasic community is the most unfriendly forum. If I have, let's clear things up offline and I will sincerely apologize.

Having said that, I thought you made the right decision to delete the whole thread. The original post was a flame!
