Yeah, I read like 2 posts into the 3rd page. I don't like reading about arguments, especially ones involving me.

But, Anachostic, I was not insulting you. When I said about VB6, I was talking about in my one business computer programming, we did RPG/COBOL/SQL for 3 years. For the last 2 weeks or so, we finally got to try a more real programming language, VB6. At the time I was already making games in C# so I was more inclined with C# and it's structure. I'm not saying VB is a bad language at all. I'm just not used to it, I can't put a language down for that reason, nobody should. I said "only made games" because we only had 2 weeks to learn anything, it was easy to learn the basics, so I just learned the basics so I could code simple games. I don't have much programming experience, contrary to what people say on these forums.

I like to joke around, not to make people want to stop persuing programming, but to [s]ensure nobody wants to start![/s] let the newer programmers to take a step back and realize they need to start learning in a different manner. Cuttin apart programs works for some, I won't argue with that point. ZuneApps could very well be a great programmer some day, but I don't think the cut now/ask questions later approach is working for him.

EDIT: Awe, doesn't support strikeouts, that's gay.

Thanks for the explanation, but you have to understand that when I reference your other posts and they appear to have a tone of superiority, and the current thread has so much negativity, how can I possibly read "VB? woah" as anything but a sneer?

I'll say it again, it's not all about you. And judging from a couple of responses, an outburst was needed on this topic. You and others need to dial back the attitude. From your response it doesn't seem you acknowledge you have displayed any attitude. You regard it as joking.

I have posted what I hope can be applied to our support deficiency. I hope that we all can move beyond this.
