Use remote assistance software like Teamviewer. Instead of instructing them to do A, B, C you can control their desktop from your end and resolve their problems that way. All they need to do is install the software, which should be easy enough

no, they are also too stupid for installing software. i appreciate the effort, meus. the problem is: i even said that they should use something else than IE. but they dont want too. well, when i started argueing it was crap, i was the bad guy in the end.

I don't think he wants to risk knowing what kind of porn his parents watch.

Just read the thread from where I left off last night. Man, actually reading the thread is over rated.

But our game is growing. All the GAF celebrities want to post with us now, Devo, Eggman, who's next?

Damn, looks like I missed some Andres-related hilarity. Oh well, time to log into my Mumei account to see what that post looked like pre-edit.

Why do you people insist on using the foreign spelling for South American countries? It's Columbia, not Colombia, and it's Brazil, not Brasil.

We don't say Deutschland or Hanguk when we're talking about Germany or Korea.

Most likely people just get confused and misspells it? Especially when they are that close to being the same unlike many European countries.

I thought Colombia the country was spelled with an 'o' in English. Columbia with a 'u' was for D.C. and stuff like that, right?

In the GTAV thread it says Schotland. I think we should default to Dutch spellings.

Lol holy shit I did get Colombia wrong. Wow. Still, it's Brazil.

It's just pedantry and I brought it up to be tongue in cheek anyway

Anyone buying CoD today? I am not for the first time since CoD4. Just read the Polygon review, they said the game is complete mess at times and scored it 8/10 which isn't a bad score at all.

But the fanboys on certain parts of the Internet will not take kind to that, especially when they realise they scored Angry Birds Star Wars 8.5/10.

I doubt even fanboys cares enough about polygon, to scroll past that terrible design to see the score.
