I think part of the OP's problem comes from him not speaking english as a primary language (in itself not a problem, however....), and falling back to his native grammar when emotional, which is what makes him impossible to understand when he is agitated.
From what i figure out, he is experiencing some sort of problem with the game client, although he doesn't clarify what. Glitches has been used to describe anything from artifacts(really messed up graphics) to crashes. That could be a reason the GM's have trouble diagnosing the problem, causing them to fall back to a generic knowledge base reply because they can't solve the issue but are required to give an answer.
The fact that most of the GM's efforts seem to focus on restoring the client in some way, suggests to me that he may be suffering from the EAX crash bug, which is often assumed to be a compatibility problem with the graphics card, but which is in fact an issue with some sound cards, especially on board sound adapters. Of course, if you make some vague hints about a graphics glitch and then start yelling about restitution for a few days worth of lost playtime like he lost a family member or other emotionally bound person or object due to the inability to play, no wonder they don't diagnose further.
And exactly where does discrimination get into play? Do you always accuse people who try to help you of discrimination? Heres' a tip: "I'm sorry, i can not understand what you are saying" is not an attempt to make fun of someone who speaks another language, it's an admission of inability to receive your message.
Take a chill pill, take a deep breath and count to 10, then when you are calm enough to remember your grammar (NOT making fun of that, but you will not get much help if you make your message impossible to understand), describe the precise symptoms of your problem again and maybe someone can help. Keep in mind hardware is sometimes difficult to figure out and sometimes there's really just one thing left to do when dealing with an instability issue (if it is that): Reinstall windows, possibly after replacing any hardware that could be the culprit.
And if it is the EAX crash bug, turn off your sound and see if that makes the crashes go away. If your system stops crashing then, look into buying a better sound card.
