Not open for further replies.
you sig makes no sense at all......

Well basically, the guy called "Moocher" asked bigfella which PSU is better. He said they're made by the same company, which is completely false.

And that's the guy that tried to tell me I have little or no knowledge of power supplies... yeah.
 
The only game that's being played here, is you guys coming here (for what reason?)
trying to see how dumb you can make us look, because you come from the "elite" at overclock.

Get over yourselves.
 
can we get this thread closed? the OP has gotten the answer he was looking for, and now its just useless arguing. O, and btw

...what?

I don't see what your big problem with us is, to be honest. I've never joined a community online (granted, I've not joined many forums) that has made me feel less unwelcome than here... only mep has said "welcome to the forums!" or whatever, the rest of you have just been continually rude. I don't believe myself superior to you - or anyone on the forums - after all, we all have the potential to learn, and the potential to rise up and become more knowledgeable than each other, don't we? I may - or may not - know more about certain areas of computers than some people, but they may out-shine me in others; it's not a competition to see who's the best.

I came here and posted information, and have been attacked in threads by members such as yourselves with little or no provocation... explain how I'm in the wrong here?

Have I made a single abrasive/caustic post directed at another member without direct provocation/them posting misinformation?

I'm pretty sure I haven't.

Wow, so mature...

sorry but what is OCN

OCN is a similar forum to ComputerForum, but is aimed at a slightly different consumer market. :) It's an abbreviation of: www.overclock.net - which is where myself, el gappo, NCspecV81 and Ihatethedukes primarily post and know each other from. Most of the members of this forum seem to think that we're here to cause trouble, or to annoy them or whatever, for no apparent reason.

Seriously can someone inform me why everybody hates ocn members :confused: I came here to get away because it is becoming 4chan.net thanks to a few trolls and I enjoy discussing computers along with helping out.

If its the fact you got corrected by a kid that just turned 15 then you are completely in the wrong and being really rather prejudiced. On the other hand if there is some underlying reason why this hatred exists please let me know and I'll see what I can do but until then I suggest you take good advice for what it is... advice.

We are all computer enthusiasts and many people are here to learn, how can that happen when this childish trolling is going on? A professionalism initiative really needs to be introduced if you guys act like this all the time

we dont hate them, they are welcome here. it is just that recently a bunch of ocn members have been coming here just to start arguments and tell us how much better ocn is than cf.

Who?

I hope you're not referring to el gappo, NCspecV81, Ihatethedukes or I, since we've not instigated any trouble here, yet it seems to follow us, no matter what we post.

We've not said "OCN > CF" but you have said "CF > OCN" so I don't really think you're in a position to mention how that's bad forum conduct, but I could be wrong there.

What do I know, eh? I'm just a noob to the site. :D

no, the problem makers have been banned. also, this is cf. it is the greatest forum in the world. i can say that becasue we are on cf. you can say ocn is greatest forum, on ocn.
 
Thanks, guys. Now you've just made this site look like the hideout of tools, trolls and elitist pricks. Nice impression you're giving here.

How about, instead of calling them out for being over from a more performance-oriented from (which naturally must mean that they're here only to show off), young or whatever you actually try to discuss the topic at hand without being insulting.

EDIT: Also, they do know their stuff over at OCN. Discussing the topic like intelligent people, even when you turn out to be wrong doesn't make you stupid. And no, that does NOT say nor suggest that anyone here is wrong.

We don't hate you guys. The fact that you're from an enthusiast site (this place is geared more towards the average Joe and his computer issues rather than getting that sweet 5GHz) is somewhat of an issue, people see you coming here solely to brag or show off your knowledge and big rigs. Well, that's what I think based on my observations. I could be wrong.

I agree that a good impression isn't being given, however I do think that if you look at the threads that have been posted in by the new members involved in this "argument" (notably, the people from OCN), there have been quite a few arguments been started in them, thanks to them trying to be know-it-alls and get one up on everyone else.

Now I don't mean to offend here or anything, but I can see myself easily doing so, but I am not surprised it has happened, because of the people that are posting. What I mean is look at the join date of them and look at the post count. they are the kind of people that are a part of the internet and an integral part at that, but they are the people on the internet that have...the internet and that is all. If they can't look good on the internet, they have nothing, so naturally they have to pull some kind of card out of their arse to play it so they don't look like jackasses, but in turn, look like jackasses because they don't know when to shut up and give up.

You look at the OCN regulars and a hell of alot of them are these people, you look at the CF regulars and they aren't, they are more laid back and prefer to discuss and explain, rather than give a "you're wrong, I am right, end of" approach, and I know that it just about certainly isn't how it was intended to come over, and I am almost certain that a CF regular or 2 will disagree with me here, but imho, it is how you have come over.

and when a mod comes in here, regarding

4. Spam, multiple posting of same topic, promoting your own site/forum and posting of sites with affiliate ID's is not allowed.

I would imagine they will look at your (oh look, another) smart arse ansewr and strike you down, because it doesn't literally mean "your" site, as in you own the site, you pay for it etc etc, it means a site that you are involved in. You can't go posting links directly to other computer forums, which is what you have been doing. You may like to think that you are cleverer than the mods, but you aint, because they have a big ban button, and if they say black is white, it is, they say their crap doesn't stink, it doesn't

Okay...

If you read over the thread, I think you'll see that I didn't intentionally start an argument, or resort to insults, did I? No. Who did? A CF member... He ran out of argument so thought "Quick, target his age!" and replied like that...

We're not here to try and reign superior, we're here because we love computers, and love spreading information about them, like we've done. If we call out other members here for giving misinformation, then I don't really see what the issue is, personally. Better that someone is corrected than someone follows the (potentially) harmful advice, and does some damage to their rig, no?

If you can't post links to other forums, then I guess that it should be more clear in the rules, and also, I'm not the only one who has done so...

You should post yours first.

How many of these rigs are actually yours?

See, it's not just us...

The only reason I linked to a thread on OCN was to give hard figures on power consumption, which, the last time I checked, was actually related to this thread, so yeah...
 
You are right, you didn't start it, but you carried it on, and still are.

I am now going to pull the age card:

I can't be arsed with this argument, I have put my 2p in and I am out. Squabble amongst yourselves, but I will leave with saying know when you are fighting a losing battle and know when to pull out (see what I am hinting at). You need to learn when to pull out and when it is for the best, by which I mean now. The letting go and losing does come with age (there is the card :P), now would be a good time to have a bit of a steep learning curve on the subject

I respect your opinion, but I also disagree... :)

I wouldn't continue posting in the thread if members hadn't continually called me out, etc. If they'd just either accepted what I said was true, or ignored it, I'd have been fine. Likewise if they didn't resort to insults (which I've tried not to do), I wouldn't have retaliated...

I feel that this thread has actually had a very good purpose on the forums. It contains lots of good and relevant information, and could be quoted on, or relied upon in threads in the future... I don't really see the harm in that. Some of the best threads on some other anonymous overclocking forums (:P) don't start out as what they finish as, but they contain a wealth of information by the end.

With that said, it's a lot nicer if people can remain civil for the most part, and only PM a member or whatever if they have an issue with them...
 
I'm going to issue infractions to anyone that continues to harass the new membership from overclock.net. They're members here now too, This is NOT OCN vs. CF, and I'm in agreement with hackapelite that a few of you are leaving a terrible impression and making our community look like a bunch of childish pricks.

From what I've read, these guys are clearly not here to start any trouble. If they were, I would have banned them by now, and you all should know that, just as i did new years night. In fact, it's great to see more knowledgeable members here in this community, and I'm disappointed that they've been placed in a position to defend themselves and have to deal with all this nonsense.

I'd like all the OCN/CF stuff to stop immediately. They're CF members, as far as I'm concerned, and it's ridiculous to suggest that they're somehow spamming or in any way violating the rules.

Thread closed. Try to start over, put all this bad shit aside and enjoy the forum. Thanks. :)
