What is funny to some is not funny to others. And they were not "perfect comments". For example you irritated another forum member in their thread to the point that they asked you why you were posting if you had no useful advice to offer, and the member in question went as far as to create a second thread to ask the same technical question. I deleted any fatuous or irrelevant posts in the first thread and removed the second thread as double posting is unnecessary.

okay okay, but about bad blocks and badblocks, old hen and oldhen command that was absolutely fun.

And why delete post about touchpad?? In linuxes, most programs are not visually polished, and i just searched for mouse cursor that will move ACCELERATED, this gives different feeling of touchpad

The other forum member clearly didn't perceive it as "absolutely fun", did they? And, to be honest, as a third-party reading that thread, your posts did come across as irritating. I can see why the other poster got frustrated. You have to try and remember that these forums have members of different ages and from different cultures all over the world, some of whom may not be interested in banter, and many don't have English as their mother tongue (like you, for instance), so what can seem like banter or humour to you may not be perceived that way by others. Please do keep these things in mind when posting in future. You'll find humour in posts, but often people post a query because they want an answer, not banter from someone who doesn't have a solution for their specific problem. You just have to accept that. Regarding the touchpad, I have not deleted that thread, I've moved it to a more appropriate shed (Hardware).

There is something inconsistent in your posts, but i don't know why. It seems, you don't understand quite a few things. For example, I don't have a fun posting in my native language (russian, ukrainian), because i see many provincial people using SL there. In contrast, russian Gentoo forums looking better. To me, its more about fun than troubleshooting, because SL seems quite stable to me :)

Nevermind.
