Newer versions and alterations of C have been heavily influenced by C++ since 1998, and thus newer versions of C influenced modern programming languages.
If you were talking specifically about syntax, then you could have explained it better and in greater detail, and we could have discussed it and resolve it quicker and learn something from each other. Instead, you explicitly told me that C was better due to the fact that you "don't need to write lines and lines of code" and that I didn't know what I was talking about (your words) among other things. You were rude and dismissive, and that applies to the situation with Tezuni. I specifically said that most modern programming languages stem from C++ through C, not that they explicitly come through C++. C++ is a higher programming language based on C, so it doesn't make sense to come out and say that all programming languages come from C++ exclusively. I mentioned C++ to a certain player because it can be used for much the same purposes as C, but is built upon and modified in some areas to accommodate what I mentioned in my earlier posts, but you joined in and said what you said.
I decided to leave it to rest because, hey, why sweat the small stuff? That was until I saw Tezuni's post on why you were banned, and then it made sense to me.
Most people like C more because it's simpler. It is not better or worse than C++, which is what you were explicitly suggesting.
