Lord_Kane: I have brought this and other spammers to the attention of contacts I have with GOG and either they act fast or its takes them MONTHS to respond, its getting pretty clear that GOG just does not care about its forums but seems to manage their subreddit, X account and other socials but the forum? 2nd Class is only on a good day.
Yeah, I stopped reporting stuff like this last year.
For the same reasons: it takes them six to eight weeks, on average, to react/actually do something.
By then it hardly matters anymore.
What is unteresting: his first two threads got locked at some point.
But then they (aka: the one guy active in the forum) apparently threw up his arms and gave up.

Lord_Kane: oh no I am going to break windows not get a new laptop you misunderstand my statement.
and in reality you sleep in prison the same day.. then get to stand in court for damage to property.
jokes aside.. do you think the industry is at fault or the people?
i say both.

they keep lowering the bar extensively but we don't speak up and are not allowed to

at this rate a new phone will cost 4 times what it did and is made of waste paper that will dissolve...
so if your expectation is a 6 to 10 year long product... you are sadly in for a ride.

and somehow that waste paper that they has zero use for is suddenly worth... unobtanium..

1.wouldnt be the first time
2. I generally agree, though I avoid HP and Dell for laptops I have had terrible luck with anything dell, but had better luck with lenovo and asus tops lasting me years, my last laptop to die is more due to PEBKAC then any fault in the laptop itself but thats usually how most of my pcs have died is due to PEBKAC. but yeah I think its just some companies rush their designs to market, but I rarely buy cutting edge laptops, I tend to target the last generation, as while I do game, I dont game with anything that demanding and I am fine with reducing details to get a decent framerate the last super demanding game I played was ironically cyberpunk my last laptop chocked a bit with that one, but I usually just played Doom Eternal so.

BreOl72: I'm wondering, at what point GOG considers consistent trolling as spamming?
Well, in my experience drawing any kind of attention to something like that gets you banned for "attacking" the user in question, so... uhm... XeonicDevil sure is a swell guy!

i'm sorry if i do snap at people.
i try keep myself in check but the thought that who ever is on the other end may have a bad intention has broken me.

it's one thing to be so stupid you put a laptop in water, it's another to make bad products and write your warranty like a fiend.


i took my whole disability fund put it into this laptop to make ends meat... and now it's dust.

Well, if this gets me the red banner and the accompanying email, so be it.
Wouldn't be the first time.
Also wouldn't be the first time being banned over nothing.
Their forum - their rules.
I can take it.

BreOl72: It's not me stalking you, if you rub it constantly under my nose, honey.
You see, dear, you do not need to open and read those threads. No one is forcing you, sweetheart.

i see this on steam where moderation is handled by bots.. your barely breaking a rule but you are reported in such mass you may as well never speak again.
i often wonder if it's just.. how the money flows.
at some point support does not even care if you are right or wrong.

But if you do make too many threads in short amount of time, then it will be seen as spamming. Take the hint from this heer and Steam, and just slow down a bit.

Don't smoke in front of the computer. I sometimes vape in front of the computer, and I haven't seen any residue in the fans, like you would get from tobacco smoke.
#17 is my favourite because of the irony.

in all my years i have never had a heatsink gunk up this fast.
even if i make a heatsink i take particle size into count.
their fan design alone says "i trap dirt"
Yeah I've wondered about that very same thing sometime.

Or have I?!? Maybe I have, or maybe I haven't. Or both. Or neither. Or vice versa.

You never know, until you do.

Don't smoke period!

I mean, what ever has the period done to you?!? Leave it alone, please.

vape residue is usually clear (for about a year).
