[QUOTE=Zenpod;27582808]Since I have no idea about programming, What is he trying to make exactly?[/QUOTE] A file that makes three text files with some information you want and zips it up. You could probably do that in about 50 or so lines of code and this guy claims it's 200.000 lines of code. Connect the dots.

Oh dear god. Facebook, some girl has a new album called "Edits I should probably start charging for", She is serious, It's generic filter rape with brush bullshit.

[QUOTE=Sonicfan574;27576040]For any programmers: [url]http://forum.returntoblockland.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2898[/url] The goal of this guy was to create a program that makes three text files 2-5 lines in length using text specified by the user, and then zip them (which is how an addon for the game this forum is about is packaged). This is all fine and dandy, but the OP claims he put 200,000 lines and "several years" or something into this VB project, saying something about the line additions increasing "speed" and "accuracy." He's either just attracting attention or is doing something horribly wrong. I tried to convince him of this but was flamed by the community who has no experience whatsoever. I even replicated this shit in 30-line PHP and Lua scripts, but he kept saying "his does more" without saying what. He also is adding unnecessary compulsory registration and web integration, and he's also trying to add an IRC client which makes this seem more of a practice app than a simple addon generator (which was his goal), but he refuses to believe it's anything other than "professional." The few times I did actually help him with this shit, he just came up with some ignorant bullshit excuse to not accept it it (ex, he wanted a MySQL host, I told him to download MySQL Community Server, he said "it didn't exist"). He also seems to insult everybody else making a similar project saying that "they're unoriginal," which makes the OP a hypocrite because many people have made projects like this before him. A bonus lol is on page 32 - he explains how there's this big huge organization called Jeepserver and that he's the owner of it. OP is 13 by the way.[/QUOTE] [url]http://jeepserver.webs.com/[/url]

Quick question, my mom (53) is probably going to get a new laptop soon, what os should it be if she wants it really simple?

[QUOTE=Maximum Mod;27591357]Quick question, my mom (53) is probably going to get a new laptop soon, what os should it be if she wants it really simple?[/QUOTE] If she is used to windows, get a windows, if she is used to mac, get a mac. Plain and simple.

Windows duh

[QUOTE=Zenpod;27582808]Since I have no idea about programming, What is he trying to make exactly?[/QUOTE] He's trying to generate 3 tiny-ass text files using text input by the user, and then zip them. It's a simple as hell task, I don't know why he's marketing the damn thing as "professional" and pretending to be jesus about it.

[QUOTE=Maximum Mod;27591357]Quick question, my mom (53) is probably going to get a new laptop soon, what os should it be if she wants it really simple?[/QUOTE] Unless she's really used to Windows or is on a budget, go with a Mac.
