Emails from Idiots

I can post this here because I know they'll never find it, they are too stupid.

 

Some of the idiots that email me make me want to bang my head through a wall.

 

I had a guy email me last week who mentioned that he had been banned and didn't know why. I vaguely remembered him being extremely annoying and completely unable to follow any instructions he was given. He could never log in, even when I reset his password manually he couldn't get it to work. Nothing ever worked for this guy. But, I didn't really see a valid reason for him to be banned. So I unbanned him and gave him another shot. I resent him instructions to change his password and it started all over again. More of the same with his inability to follow instructions.

 

I finally wrote him back and this is what it said "Now I remember why I banned you....". I changed his password (manually) to "idiot" and told him that if he couldn't get that to work not to email me again it was a user error on his end and I couldn't help him.

 

Why can't people read instructions?

I've been in computers since they occupied big parts of buildings (most of my sexy tan came from green-screens). I watch my parents fumble with simple web pages and I have enormous sympathy for folks that can't quite get computers - most of them are not really idiots in their "real" daily lives. But ya have to draw a line somewhere and if someone can't functionally log in, they would have a difficult time contributing to the discussions.

That's pretty much my general feeling. Once they do finally get logged in, it will be some other problem then some other problem when that is fixed and I just can't sit here and virtually hold someone's hand through their introduction to the internet. This particular guy has been online (and trying to get on this site) for a couple of years now, if he hasn't gotten it by now he's never going to.

This is his response to my calling him an idiot.:confused:

 

You are great. I like a woman with a sense of humor. Also I'll bet you would be good in bed.
