You can't argue with common sense, that's why. Iltos & Hobbes do not say outlandish things so you see... there's nothing to argue.

And to add what I have learned since coming to TSG:

1) How to argue. Don't bring a knife to a gunfight & don't show up to CivDeb without your sources, links, & a strong sense of 'lawyering up' an argument. I really love doing that last one.... even IRL. Gets 'em every time.

2) No matter the subject.... there's a know-it-all somewhere.... and they're probably on the internet.... and if they're not on TSG now, they will be soon.

Well maybe that's where I got it from! But MY line was more relevant to the issue at hand... that it's boring to argue with someone who's right all the time. Your line is more like... you can't MAKE someone have common sense.... although if you could, I've got a list for you....

Since coming to TSG I have learned there are hundreds of ways for people to ask for help logging on to a PC without revealing it's their Dad's account, or they have a stolen laptop.

And I have learned that people think you are a complete idiot when they have ares or kazaa or some other stealing program installed and they tell you they use it only for legal downloads Yep, and I still have that swamp land in New Orleans for sale.............
