I really can't understand why anyone bothers to respond to Needler420 at all. It's pretty clear that no matter what anyone types, he is going to take the complete opposite view simply for the sake of arguing. I feel like his time here has been a very elaborate troll with his continuous rants about how collecting is stupid and anyone who doesn't play certain games in a certain way isn't "hardcore" or how repros are the worst form of illegal conduct ever created. I mean look at the whole structure of this thread. He lulls helpful forum members in ostensibly under the guise of wanting to know what percentage of rubbing alcohol he should use to clean things. Almost immediately, he starts arguing that it can't be used at all for cleaning carts. I just can't believe this guy is even permitted to still be here as he seems to revel in chaos and dischord.
Yeah, I've been wondering myself why he hasn't been banned yet. He's not only disruptive, with his endless trolling spree, but he's also been caught plagiarizing, by copying posts from elsewhere on the internet and pretending that they're his own words. Is this honestly what the Retrogaming Roundtable tolerates these days? This is one of those moments where you can put your finger on the exact reason why this board/site has been going down the shitter, losing (worthwhile) activity and its long-time regulars. We're all in a freakin' bus with no driver here. I said it in another topic, but where the hell are the mods and admins when we need them? It seems like most barely visit the board anymore, so why aren't their powers passed on to people who actually want to be here and will see what's going on?

Both isopropyl alcohol and water are commonly used to clean circuit board assemblies. The alcohol will dry faster than water, but either one is fine if the boards are dried after cleaning.
They even specifically make water-soluble flux, so that you can clean a board using only water after assembly. I work in the industry, so I know this from experience (not just reading it somewhere).

If you're going to copy and paste comments from another site to support your position in whatever debate you've found yourself in, firstly, indicate that clearly, cite the original author, use quotation marks around the content that you're copying/pasting and post a link back to the page where the quote originated.
There's no other way to do it without looking like you're attempting to represent the content as your own ideas/comments.

Nigel and Needler agree.
