Why discontinued? I always read this thread when it gets updated, it's very useful information

Just so I understand it correctly: You get one (!) dislike and you go crazy? You talk in plural as if all of us were the same? I feel insulted by that assumption!

And that all because of one dislike in a thread with 15 pages? A dislike from a guy who made only 15 posts in 2 years? Come on! Don't play princess.

 

Come on mild,i have been disliked just for saying hello.
Some dumb mofo went trough many of my threads just to dislike that stuff.
Most mofos who do that never post any thing,they just like to f-ck around with active members.
Dont take it personally.
I think this thread is useful for Reaper users and you are good man.

 

Me too. Check out some of my negative ratings - I've received the "nasty" vote for helping a guy out. Mild Pump Milk - you know, some people around here are jackasses. They will downvote you simply because they're jackasses who have nothing better to do with their lives. I don't know what these guys were thinking, but look at it this way - they're status is still "member", even though they've prob been here longer than me. Then there are the "mighty" ones like you & me - who have nearly 1,000 positive ratings and like <25 negative ratings. You see, Milk, don't let the little guys get you down. Most of the people who do that type of thing are people who are very unknown or inactive on here, & they haven't contributed a whole lot of time/effort into making this forum a better place. So at the pace they're going now, they will not be remembered in the future. Whereas folks like you have left some sort of legacy/traces. You're a cool guy. I like you a lot. So I gave you a "winner" vote to erase the tracks of whoever downvoted you. Don't be angry, my friend. Some people are jackasses. They unhappy that they will never be as cool as you. Let them fade away, my friend.
