I'm starting to wish Firefox would fuck off.

uBeR · 06-02-2008, 12:11 AM

Because it owns you.

zSilver_Fox · 06-02-2008, 12:22 AM

I stopped using Firefox after the third "OMFG UPDATE NOW OR YOU'RE ALL FUCKING DOOMED," and the fact that GIFs played slower when not scrolling through.

Opera solved all that. Though not being able to use the back button to open a page in a new tab is something I miss.

Etzell · 06-02-2008, 12:23 AM

No, because of over-obsessive fanboys. It's pretty freaking lame.

This being typed, of course, while using Firefox.

+1 It's a browser, it has yet to cure cancer or AIDS.

Circuitous · 06-02-2008, 12:28 AM

Well if none of you are gonna post it I will

uBeR · 06-02-2008, 12:42 AM

Which is telling when you complain about it so much. If it's just a Web browser, just use it regardless of what other people. Why should they be the deciding factor if you use it or not? If it's better, then it's better. That's a plain fact.

Etzell · 06-02-2008, 12:47 AM

But, lately, it's been pretty shitty. Weird hang-ups, and so forth. I've been having a lot of issues with FF running poorly. When IE runs better, there's a big problem. That being said, I'm making the switch to Opera.

Because using Firefox is making us assholes. You've been quite pissy the past few days Circuitous, you were a bit more enjoyable when you weren't in the staff.

I sat here for like five minutes trying to get the mouseover text to work.

I've seen that site a MILLION TIMES. How about they stop spamming it everywhere until they have a FUCKIN' RELEASE DATE! Fine I'll download it on that date, but if you tell me now, 3 months from now I'm not going to remember nor will I give a shit.

The two are not related.

topicalness follows

Firefox the browser: awesome.

Firefox the experience: bullshit.

FrenchToast · 06-02-2008, 01:43 AM

I use firefox 'cause it gives me the least trouble when I want to look online. But yeah, in the end it's a browser.

Firefox is my lover. I have crazy computer-sex with firefox every night.

That's the problem about my nick, everytime someone starts a Browser debate it looks like I'm involved...

*looks at Mooga's post*
... Sometimes involved in pretty weird ways ...
