Default A "good friend" .. to who??

http://www.corfid.com/vbb/member.php?u=15596

Would the CHarming moderator personage please remove this superfluous moron from the member list, who cannot possibly be anybody's "good friend" just a ruddy nuisance.
Not only did he/it post here the very same unsolicited message twice but it was on the incorrect forum. and was misleading as it refers only to a free download of the trial version of the software which most likely has stupid restrictions on it like only allowing you to convert a limited number of minutes of a video, I really have too many other things to do to bother to check.
In any case to convert a video file from any almost video format to almost any other format you only need the
one great freeware programe:-
SUPER © Simplified Universal Player Encoder & Renderer

he/it has now posted 7 times
all 7 on essentially the exact same subject
for your esteemed reference and possible deletion the previous 5 are at:-
http://www.corfid.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=18661 posted 7 january in the General Discussion forum concerning ipods
http://www.corfid.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=18663 posted 7 january in the Small Talk forum concerning Play Station Pros
http://www.corfid.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=18662 posted 7 january in the GD forum concerning Zunes
http://www.corfid.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=18100 posted 9 february in the Small Talk forum concerning iphones
http://www.corfid.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=18099 posted 9 february in the GD forum concerning ipods
and while you are about it CHar please read my plaintive revised initial posting to a duplicated thread at:-
http://www.corfid.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=18650
despite umpteen attempts to delete the entire thread the Forum refuses to play ball with me
(the second time this has happenned and currently on two wildly different computer systems and connections


  1. lethargic dial up desktop with Windoze XP Internet Exploder 7
  2. speedy WiFI broadband Nokia N800 "Internet Tablet" running MAEMO/Debian OS2008 Linux variant and a version (allegedly) of Opera 8

(see my blog on small talk that is about to be updated in a new thread to boot to avoid RM's groans!!)

Between you and the moderator, my reputation is being terribly tarnished. I'm not a trouble maker.

Good catch.

Madam
Yes you just might be correct. I simply thought that his spam like repetitive banging on about video conversion programs that are manifestly not freeware and that his myriad postings as thread openers were not directly appropriate in the general discussion forum and were therefore a breach of the correct way to do things and not deserving of a true Gordon Lightfoot fan.I further note that over 24 hours later he/it has not troubled to defend its actions.
The words robot and troll spring to mind
but if you consider that this is the right place for it so be it
Basically whilst not offensive the messages were not really helpful to folks in this bailiwick either.
John
P.S. I would still greatly appreciate it if as requested you would delete my duplicated thread at:-

Thanks a bunch of roses or bananas you choose!!
