It's alive enough without your constant/irrelevant bitching. You're a |
| 7 |
forum moderator which = staff, not developer. If you think that you're |
| 8 |
making an argument that actually makes any sense whatsoever, I invite |
| 9 |
you to click "expand all" in this thread and read some of your |
| 10 |
valuable "contributions." IMHO having anyone besides the "gentoo is |
| 11 |
for ricers" crowd able to view some of the things said in the forums |
| 12 |
at all is a PR nightmare. I'd rather NOT have my clients know that |
| 13 |
every 13 year old pimply faced boy on earth that is learning linux is |
| 14 |
using my distribution. If you prefer the forums, more power to you, I |
| 15 |
think it'd be a more efficient use of bandwidth and space to replace |
| 16 |
your beloved forums with a wiki (and it'd probably be easier for |
| 17 |
people to navigate as well.) |

The issue isn't that some people do or do not like forums in general, |
| 20 |
the gentoo forums, or having forum moderators/admins. My current issue |
| 21 |
is that you, by playing devil's advocate, Ioannis, are doing nothing |
| 22 |
other than trolling. In the past, behaviors such as yours... have been |
| 23 |
described by Daniel Robbins as being a "freak" (see his articles on |
| 24 |
making your own distro on ibm.com). |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
News flash: your repeated arguments and questionable signature* make |
| 27 |
me wonder exactly how important you really think you are. |

that's nice that you have multiple gpg keys and email addresses... do |
| 38 |
we really need a list of all of them? no? didn't think so. |

holy crap... you spelled it right in the project name, but not in your |

Holy shit! You're a global forum mod? that means you have to take the |
| 52 |
quiz, right? hrm... so why don't you take the time you've spent |
| 53 |
emailing the list... and take the damned quiz and stop whining |
| 54 |
already? unless you already did, which... if you HAVE... then you |
| 55 |
should just shut up and let OTHER people that really DO have a problem |
| 56 |
(that are forum mods/admins) speak up... because you're the only |
| 57 |
jackass making noise on this issue. |

Thanks everyone for putting up with my rant... Ioannis, don't reply to |
| 60 |
me personally or on-list, i don't care what you have to say, you've |
| 61 |
done a very good job of showing me exactly *WHY* I avoid the forums at |
| 62 |
all costs. |

| 64 |
(and if anyone comments that I sound like mike frysinger in this |
| 65 |
post... they can stuff it.) |
