    The reason I may of seemed a bit "feeble-minded" is because I was quite unfamiliar with errorlevel. Contrexing is a word that doesn't exist   :P. Can't fool me there. I checked Wikipedia. 4 different dictionaries. I googled it. It doesn't exist. So what's the meaning of the meaningless word contrexing.

    har har har. it's a secret word. Look in the forum archives.


    it's standard procedure for a error flag to me a number, and 0 means success. each different number means a different error. That way, one can easily check success by determining if the error code is 0.

    I wasn't around when Contrex was, but I think I know how it works...

    Contrexing (proper-verb=must have capital) is the act of flaming another user, in the way that Contrex would have.

    (Is that right?)

    Really? Then I have never met him(/her). The way you and Ivy and other members were talking about him (or her) made it sound like (s)he left a while ago.

    Flaming is just gratuitous rudeness; contrexing is usually deserved.

      So, Contrexing is flaming another person because you think you can judge if they deserve it.

      From what I understand, Contrexing is flaming another person BECAUSE they DO deserve it, not flaming someone because you hate their idea.

        Roughly speaking, a contrexing is a rebuke for attitude or bumptiousness or rudeness or severe lack of respect or being a troll.

        ahhh, yes, Trolls get something they don't expect. They are begging for Flaming, and yet, POOF! they get a contrexing! what you do, is you make it bullet-proof. You take each point given by the poster and give a well-researched, immaculately drawn, bulletproof counterpoint. If you see any direct personal insults that seem out-of-context, then the contrexer is likely a trainee in the fine art of Contrexing. Although, the rules if Contrexing border the land of Flames, so one or two "yo mamas" might slip out even from the most season professional.

        "overwhelmed by the dark side you must not be. Use insults in context and not as double-adjectives you must"
