Need help with n64 emulation.

LOL oh boy. See this is why abbreviating everything is stupid. Though you seem to insist in talking this way. If you undo the abbreviation its much easier to follow. I dont have a person message, unless you mean that first one? So yes as you guessed I meant in my box.

Before you dismiss someone's query as "nonsense" remember that there are a lot of "clules" computer owners out there. My SN has been wasted on you has it?

Your right and they have no right just picking someone and assume they are going to get a reply. This is not a job, we dont get paid for this. The forums are set up for people that dont have a clue ( newbies ) so just post away. Your thinking more along the lines of support help. Personal messages are just that, for Personal mattes.

Wow this I'm confused about?

Anytime I send someone a PM or ala "The Twit" a DM, it is personal and not for public view. I am trusting that person with personal info.

I dont know what any of that means. From what I recall you wanted me to test some file for you and send it to me. Now again, now that I know you, I'd be able to answer that but at the time? Me replying to that would be ( I'll bleep out what I would say for you consideration ). F*** you, who do you think you are? I'm not going to trust your S**** file, I dont know you from jack. . So instead of doing that I just worked with your issue. I mean you dont realize it and I know that now, but people do this. Its not uncommon for people to try to infect others with these types of tricks. Downloading a file from someone you dont know should never be done likely. To expect someone you dont know in being that trusting... not in this day in age. So my thoughts where, ummmm ya ok, WIERDO! I'll just try to help HIM ( before I know you were not a dude LOL ) on the forums.

But seriously, isn't the choice to recieve PMs a simple matter of checking a box in most sites? Why does it mean blocking someone here?

Its a forum package decision. emulator zone does not have that option, that is all.[edit: this is not the case. you can turn off PM's and you can only receive from admins/moderators. However you can not turn off PM from a single user. Since I like to keep my PM's open I would not use those options.]

By "Box" I meant User Bar. You know that brown bar at the top with the words Private Messages. Anyway, moving on.

ulaoulao, do you honestly believe that only newbies post queries in here. If you consider yourself to be tech savvynot just Em savvy, have you ever had a problem that you needed to go to someone else with INRE your comp? If you have you're not a newbie. A site that offers help offers it to anyone posting. no one here offering help should ask the OP, "Are you a newbie?"

Sometimes the OP has hung around the site and noticed posts long enough that when they do send a PM, it's to someone they coonsider knowledgeable and can most likely help them. It's not a put down or an assumption on their part.

ulao, TE helps people with a variety of problems but the name smacks of emulator problems. Not newbies with emulator problems. Btw, if a comp has a virus or something, wouldn't it also be evident in a post like this not just something in the mail system? Legit question ulao.

Are you familiar with the site Computer Hope? They receive stuff from people they help all the time. even me. I get it, but don't be so squimish. This is a help site. Did you know when The Twit (Twitter) first came out and until recently Evan Williams didn't consider it a social site even though people did? It is what it is, TEZ is what it is, a help site. And yes ulao, I get that it's not a paying job; but it is a job none the less.

Guess what!!! Oh, I hope this is okay... posting an outside link. After I mentioned about Burger Time etal, I found this:

Look at all the classic games. No "Thin Ice" but a myriad of others. This is great!

Okay tomorrow or so, I'll post in the computer help forum about browsers etc...

Well, my Ibuprofen is wearing off. HAGO...

Your name precedes you. Not only are you still not getting it, you are arguing my responses. This is not a debate? You are asking me questions and I'm answering them. Why in the hell are you debating answers? If you don't like my answers stop asking me questions. Thread close do to off topic and utter nonsense. OP needs to get a clue, not only in computers but general edict. PM's are for personal matters, forums are for help.
