MASM32 Homepage Typo

[aspdotnetdev]

Just FYI, I noticed this typo on the masm32.com homepage and couldn't find a contact link, so I decided to post the info here:

"If MASM is to complicated for you, take up server side scripting."

Says "to", but should say "too". If writing is too complicated for you, take up writing accidental Shakespeare (along with the other monkeys). Sorry, couldn't resist  :bg

Yep, definitely a bot...

OK, lets dewitt inn the iddium.

If MASMZ 2 complakatered 4 U, tayke up aspdotnetdev.  :P

lol - Hutch is infamous for typos
after a while, "Hutch-o-nese" will be your third language, second being masm, of course
p.s. if you only found one typo, it simply means you weren't looking hard enough

2 many yeerz on IRC diddit, reading TYPO is an art form, writing it comes automatically.

Whoever wrote that license page should be shot in the heart, as they obviously have no brain.

Seems someone's brain is confusing masm and masm32  :lol

lol - nice catch Sinsi
the post just above his by computafreak is a bit mis-guiding
as far as i understand, i can do whatever i want with masm32 libs/macros
as for writing code for other OS's, i am sure ms attourneys have more important things to do than check every app written

Waste of a bullet. Probably the best advice is for the person making this posting to remove his reproductive organ from the hand he is using and pick it up with the other (assuming he has 2) so as to reduce the risk of advance RSI from excesive self delusion.

I owe nothing to GPL and all I will pass back to it is at least some of the irritation I have got from this bunch of freeloaders and bludgers.

What's a bludger? Is it an endangered specie?

Paul,

Its OZ idiom that the English normally understand but apparently did not make it into US idiom. A "bludger" is someone who tries to get something out of you for nothing. Its different to someone poor or in need, its someone who will not put in the effort to do it or get it themselves but tries to get it from someone else for free. Its a type of cheap con based on laziness and greed.

The term "freeloader" is probably more understandable in US idiom but the term "bludger" carries a less charitable description.

Now it was probably lost on our friend with "dick in hand" but probably enough other people got the idea.
