Those of you familiar with forums will appreciate this! :) !

How many members of an internet forum does it takes to change a light bulb?

1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed.

9 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently.

7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs.

1 to move it to the "Lighting" section.

2 to argue then move it to the "Electricals" section

7 to point out spelling/grammar errors in posts about changing light bulbs

5 to flame the spell checkers

3 to correct spelling/grammar flames

6 to argue over whether it's "lightbulb" or "light bulb" ... and six more to condemn those 6 as "stupid"

2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is "lamp"

5 know-it-alls to claim they were in the industry, and "light bulb" is correct

9 to post that this forum is not about light bulbs and to please take the discussion to a lightbulb forum

1 to defend the posting to this forum saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant to this forum

6 to debate which method of changing light bulbs is superior, where to buy the best light bulbs, what brand of light bulbs work best for this technique and what brands are faulty

7 to post URL's where one can see examples of different light bulbs

4 to post that the wrong URL's were posted and then post the right ones

3 to post about links they found from the URL's that are relevant to this group which makes light bulbs relevant to this group

2 to link all posts to date, quote them in their entirety including all headers and signatures, and add "Me too"

5 to post to the group that they will no longer post because they cannot handle the light bulb controversy

4 to ask "didn't we go through this already a short time ago?"

2 to say "do a Google search before posting questions about "light bulbs"

And finally,

1 "lurker" to respond to the original posting - 6 months later - and start it all over

But you did forget the 1 that will say "When will the lightbulb update be available"

:lol:

And a few to say they have installed said update, but it's all gone wrong, and now all the light bulbs in the house won't work

:lol:

You all forgot about the post to tell people how bad the customer support for the light bulb was and and that removing it from the socket for 10 seconds and then switching it back on would probably fix any problems :)
