Members vanlatte Posted February 18, 2009 Members Share Posted February 18, 2009 I have a longtime friend that has been computer/internet challenged for a while. He finally got on line recently. And I get a kick out of his reaction to it; he discovered Youtube and has been engaging in the fine art of 'flame wars'. And it's all new to him. I had to explain the term 'Troll" to him. Although I have to cut him off on the phone when he calls me up with "Dude, check out this comment I made" ... then proceeds to start reading it to me.

Members bassplayer7770 Posted February 18, 2009 Members Share Posted February 18, 2009 It can also be frustrating. I have a sister-in-law who is rather gullible and tends to fall for scams... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bassplayer7770 Posted February 19, 2009 Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 What's her Email add? Even if I gave it to you, it wouldn't do you any good. She already gave her password to somebody else, and they changed it, so she doesn't check her e-mail anymore... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
