I'll probably get flogged for this both on the list and off, but... Whether or not someone is a 'solid' contributor or not is irrelevant. Whether or not it is a joke or not is irrelevant. Everyone here on the list is - allegedly - the same. On a basic level, we are each a person, and deserve to be treated with an equal measure of respect - professional and otherwise.
I do not support your post. It was pretty hard on the guy and appears to be more or less a statement of your opinion - nothing more. Messages like that shouldn't have a place here. If you disagree with someone strongly, you are free to send it offline. > He is solid contributor, and I too have learned from them.
