Boo Radley Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 MSN has done it again boys and girls. I got home last night to find that the software for installing MSN 8 "Better ways for us to screw with you!" had arrived. After going online and downloading all your moves, I decided to install the upgrade. I read the instructions on the CD sleeve and hit "Install". All sorts of things happened, but not anything that had been in the instructions. Then it asked me to connect to the internet. So I did and it asked me for my user name and password. So I typed them in and...it asked for them again. and again. and again. No "Invalid Password" prompt or anything. Just a broken record. I called the wonderful folks at tech support and got some preteen named Dave, but for my little passion play, I think I'll call him Hiram. (Spelled but not bolded because after all, it's not our Hiram, just a pale reflection of him. Like what you would get if you kept copying the same washed out image over and over. With each generation it would be less and less there. sigh... Where was I...?) So, Hiram gets all my information and asks if the problem concerns connecting to the internet? I say "Yes" and he tells me that they are experiencing server problems and that they hope to have the problem corrected in 24 hours. Typical party line. I tell him that I had just connected with no problem when I had MSN 7, but as soon as I installed 8, it kept asking me for my password. He then tells me that they are aware of the problem and hope to have it fixed in 24 hours. Huh? Then he tells me that he's going to give me a case number. While I hear him typing furiously in the background, I tell him my concerns about the instructions on the CD sleeve not matching the monitor instructions and I just wanted to make sure I had installed it OK. (This is a question, Hiram. You must respond with an answer.) He then tells me my case number and apologizes for the inconvenience and tells me to have a nice day. I was stunned. I've had tech support people who were stupid, rude and clueless before, but never had I had a robot answer the phone. So, good people. I don't know when I'll be returning e-mails. Maybe as soon as tonight when I get home. Maybe not for several days. One of you Bozos works for MSN, don't you? Is it dalem? Figures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Shaw Posted November 7, 2002 Author Share Posted November 7, 2002 Upon further reflection I find that I'm torn between the rather sinful prospect of seeing Bauhaus as an SSN and, as Seanachai has rightly pointed out, the sacred traditions of the CessPool. As the Knight Champion of the MBT and Justicar, not to mention the CessPool Drain Commissioner, it falls to me to come down on the side of tradition ... mind it would be a GOOD thing to see Bauhaus as pissboy. Perhaps, unlikely though it would appear at first blush, Seanachai has the right of it. Perhaps an appropriate penance ... and of course he'll have to buy the game, that goes without saying. In game related news, this CMBB thing is clearly flawed ... I seem to be losing across the board and that can't be right.

Nidan1 Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 Apparently this Brahouse individual was once a typical lackwitted, bottom-feeding member of the Cesspool. From various posts there seems to be some agonizing over the conditions of his return. Some pillocks advocate his return, others seem to think he must pay some recompense before being permitted back into the fold. He is obviously crying out for consideration... I for one consider him a twit, he seems to be terribly marked by strikes from a ten-foot poll, however if he sends me a set-up that I can't possible lose, I will reconsider my opinion. There are rumors that he does not have a copy of CMBB, CMBO will be fine with me, as long as I am given Elite Waffentruppen, and huge tanks with which to crush him.

bauhaus Posted November 7, 2002 Share Posted November 7, 2002 Ladies and gentlemen of the Knighthood....and you too Berli, I have seen the error of my ways. Oh the shame for it even getting this far. The bulb has gone from dim to not-so-dim. As penance fair knights and ladies of the Pool, the game has been officially ordered. Yep, ordered. On windows none-the-less. That was difficult to do, but I really have no option. I will be ready to resume losing to the lot of you.....except you Seanachi. What's my record against you kind sir? Undefeated? So, to put it this way......I'm back. To the rest of the knighthood, kindly avoid the stink finger of Nidan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
