Wonder if it refers to Slashdot?

tycooner is on a distinguished road
Yeah, Annoyances.org is pretty funny. They also have some good, old-fashioned MS-bashing there. I've read through their archives a lot, and they don't update very often. In fact... I don't think they've done a major update in the past three years.

I think that most forum members are smarter than that... although visiting sites like GameFAQs is showing me what life is like outside of places like this (I doubt half of them could use Google).

I'm not so sure. So many people haven't a clue what the difference is between there their they're, something I was taught in elementary school, among other words that sound alike. And spaces follow sentence punctuation. Noone has ever been taught to follow a period (.) or comma(,) with the next word without a space separating them.

I don't mind some bad sentence structure or typos, but plain ignorance from people that should know better...

BTW, there's a space between "no" and "one".
