I would have expected an answer like that if I'd writen in text speak, not plain English.

Your a welcoming lot to newbies aren't you.

I'm sure it was meant in a light hearted way, but your message was a bit computer geeky with your backward compatibility and hard drive modules and E3's. Now't wrong with that, but people always have a little dig at me when I get too technical, even in these times when people are generally more computer-savvy than they were 15 years ago when started getting properly involved in IT. Just a bit of fun you learn to live with.

Fair enough

though it is a thread about a computer game!

Isn't geekyness expected?

Dunno. I thought computer games appealed to non-geeks these days. Something like Elite or god games like Civilisation, Sim City etc are pretty geekish, but console stuff has never struck as being like that. But, hey, I programme databases for a living so I can hardly criticise!

I apologise RidingPie, i didn't mean for it to come across like that, i was just having a joke because i didn't understand some of your terms. It was intended to have a little dig at myself rather than you because i didn't understand. I'm sorry anyway though.
