Welcome to the VB era

Dear programmers,

A new, exciting, and momentous era has arrived in the world of programming Yes, I am referring to the revolutionary high level language VB that has become the number one mainstream accepted programming language for both high level and low level executions.
Bugs are scarce and practically non existent in the latest version, it is extremely stable and capable of performing efficient scripts even at the lowest level.
Much of VB has been contributed to the development of many leading unix kernels. It's simplicity, reliability, and portability have made it the number one language of choice amongst the professional programming community. One of its most notable features is it's pointer system, where pointers are not needed thanks to the sophisticated mapping incorporated in VB's basic set of libraries (pointers are assigned and called automatically without the need for the developer to declare them).
Expect to see this powerful language replacing perl scripts, etc. in the near future.
If you are using glitch ridden languages such as C derivatives, you better get with the times.
VB certified professionals are the most sought after in our ever growing and competitive programming world.
VB will inevitably become the exclusive OOP language, do yourself a favor and get the latest version of Microsoft Visual VB today!.

Sincerely yours,
Jandea
8 Year VB veteran and developer

Get a life.

ROFL, yeah good one ... you almost had me there for a second!
It's a few months late for an april fools joke though.

Aren't you like 15-20 years too late with your first post there?

Aw cmon it's so ridiculously sad that it's actually hillarious. Everyone knows that Prolog is the language of the future!

I think you may be the only person to have made this sad waste of server space make me smile.

Thank you!
:D

I was trying to help you guys. But since you're convinced to use an obsolete language like C and its derivatives instead of the powerful Visual Basic, I feel sorry for you.

Lead programmers use VB, who has even heard of C these days? Get with the times, seriously.
Tell me one reason why someone would use a different language, just one.

Joke / troll / flamebait thread moved.

Thanks for the joke! :D

There is actually no real VB since VB.Net. VB.Net is a completely new language.

Visual VB? So what that V stands for?

V stands for Victory :)

True, it's harder to hurt yourself with a squirt gun.

Look at a unix/*nix kernel source file, what do you see? You may not recognize real code when you first see it, so I'll give you a hint: Look at the first letter of the icon in the address bar of your browser.

Right, but most of us are part of the programming community that lives on earth, so...

You know your OS and browser are primarily written with those, right?

I'm sorry, did I miss something? Are you suggesting kernel source files aren't written in VB? You also tried to flame me by saying that, and I quote, 'may not recognize real code when I see it'.
You're probably still under the impression that C is real code...
Kiddies....

Couldnt we just close this troll/flame thread?

Who said anything about us not using VB? I've used VB for longer than you have! Heck I learnt VB using VB3! I already know what it's good for and what it's not good for. I don't use C all that much. I use more C++ than anything else. I get the impression you don't know how radically different C++ is from C.

Wishing all your nonsense were true were so does not make it so.

If this goes much further I'm going to have to start linking to this thread from The Daily WTF: Curious Perversions in Information Technology

You do realise that the "latest version" of VB runs on top of the .NET framework right?
What language do you think the .NET framework is written in?
Answer: C++ what language is .net written in - Google Search

Anyway you didn't come here to try and convince others that VB is "the number one mainstream accepted programming language". If you knew that were true then you wouldn't feel the need to come here and tell us that. You're merely after acceptance that you're not crazy. Well I've got some bad news for you...

Regarding the difference between C and C++ really bears little relevance to me as the language is fairly outdated and incompatible with modern OS's. Unfortunately, I did take several annoying classes in both languages and I can tell you that I am fairly knowledgeable and have even written several libraries for both that are in use by the public today.

However, since Visual Basic conception it has taken the lead dramatically, namely making languages like Cobalt and Fortran a thing of the past and gradually becoming the sole replacement for C/C++.
If you look at the sheer brilliance that was put into its ancestor, qBasic, you will find that one can shift easily on to VB with just basic understanding of it's founding language.
Thanks to VB, spending hours trying to find the right library for simplistic functions that are otherwise time consuming if not impossible to code due to C++'s severe limitations, is no longer an issue.

Closed.

Pointless trolling.
