    As of lately this forum section seems to be under more heat in terms of users fighting, trolling, flaming or starting useless threads.

    That has to stop. Treat each other with respect. If you can't handle that, then there is no place on this forum for you. Two moderators have been added into this section.

    If anybody notices weird behaviour, please use the submit to moderator / report post button and we will look into the problem.

    Thanks for understanding.

    We're partly to blame -- I just realized that just one mod was assigned to this section. That never was a problem but ever since the past few months the activity in this section has increased very much.

    I have added three mods as of this minute to this section, that makes a total of four now receiveing the moderator reports just for this section.

    We'll get it back into shape, no worries ;)

    Cool, good news indeed :)

    I'm not a regular person here, but I'm also not a fan of trolling either, especially in a place of driver/hardware discussion...

    When people (like me) ask for advice about OLD hardware or the "Not so Good" hard wares, some tend to say "Throw that sh** away and get yourself a Sandy bridge" or "Your CPU sucks, get a new one" - without actually answering the question being asked.

    Geez, when someone asks advice about an older system most of the users here ignore to help and just suggest to buy a new one. That is just rude by the way. :(

    Good news that the great ban hammer is back into business.
    Many will agree that it has been missed.

    Just a small point of relevance - clicking the report button just because you don't agree with someone else's opinion is the best way to piss off a moderator, maybe that's what some of you are going for here but my inbox is practically overflowing with pointless reports, I swear I only went to take a leak and when I came back there were even more..!

    I only report users that are blatantly trolling or egging on other people, which lately is a hell of a lot of people

    Yeah hopefully will stop. I just see so many complaints and I can't reproduce their issues here. It's like they have a full time job to rip on AMD drivers to perpetuate that old prejudice.

    Your right.

    i want to live in a world when a 386dx can be talked about.

    is this trolling or just taking things too serious??

    i think people should chill a bit to be honest.
