Quite the opposite. It is an example of rational debate. Phil is introducing the benefits he sees from using mailing lists. He disagrees with you. To me it looks like you who can't cope with his disagreement. Instead of addressing his points you post an extremely subjective response. > > Frank > who never worried about being labeled and > from a country where free speech is still welcome Why is free speech necessarily a national issue? It is also an issue at smaller and larger scales. How is your free speech being impinged upon here? You haven't been blocked. Tudor gave a reasoned request for you to be more civil, which is not bad advice. I myself found your "javascript idiots" shocking, because I can think of no better way of antagonizing the JavaScript community, with which you may have to interact regularly to get help with your project, than writing the entire community off as idiotic. Maybe I misunderstood you. Anyway, I do hope that you can find discussion here more p[roductive and less antagonistic, both in your perceptions and your responses. And more importantly I hope you have productive discussions here. We all stand to benefit from each other if we can collaborate and assist, and that effort is in my experience always helped by clear and courteous communication, especially when opinions differ strongly. > -- > View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Anybody- > using-Orca-Smalltalk-to-JavaScript-tp4960519p4961628.html > Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at > Nabble.com. > _,,,^..^,,,_ best, Eliot
