Your original post served no purpose. It had no point. This post here,
serves no purpose and has no point.
No one called him a moron.
The original poster ruffled the feathers by posting what he posted on
linuxpeople.cc -- not here. You rehashed his post here and 'backed' his
argument.
I am simply trying to get a point across to you that this list is by no
means obligated to help anyone out. The user felt that we were under some
obligation, and you seemed to agree with him. This is not the case. Any
help here should be considered gratis, and not expected.
I dont know where you got 'calling him a moron publicly' from -- i never
called anyone a moron.
