Scripting is programming, whatever the language, be it BASIC, JavaScript, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, shell scripting, TCL, VBScript or mIRC script. Wherever did you get the mistaken impression it was not? Have you no conception whatsoever about interpretation versus compilation?
Generally speaking, this forum is generally used by people who are developing stuff to work with mIRC (such as $dll's or $com objects), something a bit more advanced than simple on TEXT events...but mIRC scripting, in and of itself, is just as valid a language to develop in as any other, depending on the application. In fact, there are many tasks I routinely use mIRC script to accomplish over some other language, such as C++ or Java.
You can cool your jets and lose the attitude, dude. No one here cares to see it anymore...in any of the forums here. You are relatively new here and you don't happen to be one of the ones who decides what is valid content for any of the forums. While you do tend to respect the general content for each of the forums that you post to, you also tend to make an idiot of yourself by putting your attitude on display. Now granted, we all make idiots of ourselves occassionally; you're just abusing the idea.
You sometimes have valid things to add to the threads you reply to, but you shroud it in so much attitude that no one really listens to you much anymore. That's too bad, really; sometimes, you do have something helpful to add. Try sticking to constructive criticism and lay off the holier-than-thou, I'm-better-than-you attitude; you'll find your credibility increases and people will actually help you more willingly when you have a question instead of just jumping down your throat every time they reply to you specifically.
