Language levels
I don't want to sound too much like an old fogey but I do find the occasional bit of bad language offensive. An example is here: http://www.sevenforums.com/general-d...7-vs-xp-4.html
Post no 32.

Yeah, I think you are a bit too sensitive. This is apparently a young man and their language is that way. At my age, I have seen it all and do not get all upset about a little deviation from the norm as long as it does not become a personal attack. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway, Toshiba - 4 laptops and 2 desktops

Well, the post you linked does reveal a streak of intolerance, probably arising from ignorance and lack of actual hands on experience of using XP. In fact, its a very bookish kind of post. And yes, the language did make me squirm.
But the Poster will learn and hopefully enlighten himself. I hope this forum will help him do so. | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Too many to describe...
