Because most points are irrational or illogical. It doesn't usually take an expert to invalidate those.


Why are you trying to make my question invalid by using big words that you don't really need to use?

Infact why does anyone else care that i asked it!?

I'm not. I answered your question. My words were not big. If you think otherwise, perhaps you should point out exactly which words were "big" and what they could be replaced with since you also claim that they are unnecessary.

Are you looking for an argument.

I asked NPT a simple question, you didnt answer it, you tried to tell me why i shouldnt ask it.
It doesnt matter what words you were using, its just that you are using big words to miss the point.

But it doesnt really matter, if you are looking for an argument you can find someone else, i didnt come to the gmc to argue with mods.

I'll argue with someone if anyone else is really in the mood. I'm kind of bored right now so yea....
BTW, I think DarkFlame was trying to ask NPT how he knew so much about the attack, the solution, and basic web sevrvice operations, all that it not really common knowlege. But feel free to argue wink1.gif

A web developer knows his field.
But someone interested in security knows this field even more with it's bottlenecks and quirks.

I am quite sure NPT has a lot of interest and experience in both fields, but I also suspect he's got some good experience of marketing.

But, experience alone is nothing. As the mods already said here, he uses his common sense.
If people did that a very tiny little bit, I assure you everyone could be termed "expert" by that time.

But as some say, it is weird how common sense is not so common wink1.gif.

Edit: On a second thought, I think I know why they sort of attacked you back. You have to see how you word your sentence otherwise it looked almost like an insult.
Of course, from a normal perspective, that would not be. But people here are quite vehement, and the mods are more then prepared to fight back (of course in a civilized manner).

On the other hand, I don't think your question should be openly discussed and especially because it is beyond the point of this topic.
Next time, ask the member (NPT) directly through a PM.
(wow saying that feels like some mod smile.gif )

Simple clarity.

Someone gets the point at least.

Hmm, will you be my challenger then uuf? But I agree with most of your post so I will just have to argue with your 3rd paragraph.
Tell me now, what about NPT's post-in-question was common sense? Besides 7 minus 4 minus one weekend day equals 2.
I'm sure that we probably could't be getting more off topic than this, but like others have said there really is no topic at the moment,
and like I said, I'm bored so entertain me wink1.gif

I am not challenging anyone smile.gif
I'm just trying to put some order in this chaos.

QUOTE (NPT)
You don't know anything about security, nor the budgetary concerns that are impacted by it.

QUOTE (DarkFlame)
@NPT: what makes you such an expert?

These are two great examples of how poorly worded comments can start arguments.

NPT's comment was rather blunt, and didn't add anything useful to his otherwise good post. And DarkFlame's response sounded snippy. A better comment would have been: @NPT, you seem to know a lot about security. What's your background?

So let's drop it. NPT can answer the question if he chooses.

Are you saying you don't know the meaning of irrational or illogical? They're not big words and I'm pretty sure they can't be made smaller.
