hey. I understand that someone saying you have mental problems 
can be taken as an attack. I think the person that made the 
comment, should not have said it.


I think we all have mental problems... it's comes from being 
human ;-)


I volunteer in the mental health sector, so I know the mental 
health issues and being human seem highly correlated ;-)


In any case, you are clearly a very intelligent person (based on 
my analysis of your previous discussions over a long... period of 
time), so why not use your brain to benefit people instead of 
attacking them?


Try to explain how people are wrong, so they can learn.

Don't call people morons. It's pointless, and just reflects badly 
on you.

Its a blog post about how sometimes expert programmers treat 
newcomers badly. I haven't really noticed  any of what he 
mentions in the D community, as most of the regular members are 
very polite and friendly, but I thought it was an important 
read nonetheless.


Most assholes in programming forums are intermediate level, and 
young. They've got enough experience to overvalue their own 
opinion, and they are young enough that they get offended easily 
when someone disagrees with them.

That guy's some nutjob who only hangs out in the Learn forum, 
continually changing nicks and sometimes going off like that (I 
think I went off on one of his prior nicks), he basically has 
nothing to do with the D community.


Prove it, idiot. I'm pretty sure you are that guy you are talking 
about.


He's no expert, as psychoRabbit says, merely a noob with some 
mental problems.


And who the fuck are you? See, it's funny how you say I'm a noob 
with mental problems that says shit about people yet you are 
doing THE EXACT SAME THING! At the very least, you are no better 
than me, in fact worse, because you pretend you are all high and 
mighty and then throw your underhanded attacks in.


At least I have a point, you don't. You are just using personal 
attacks.


So, the fact is, you are illogical and moronic. You say: This guy 
attacks peoples then you attack me... and yet you think you are 
justified. RIIGHHHT. I'm sure the rest of your buddies here will 
defend you though.


Better yet, how bout we both go get a mental analysis and the one 
that is more mentally insane checks himself in to the mental 
ward? Deal? We might as well add an IQ test too it, the one with 
the lower IQ kills himself and does the rest of humanity a favor? 
Or is this another deal you will reject?

Unfortunately, we do periodically have folks act like that 
around here, but fortunately, for the most part, it's folks who 
don't stick around long, and our regular posters are generally

Most people around here are really nice :)

yeah I agree 100%

the people that actually know stuff around here, are NOT the 
people that treat others badly.


I have certainly worked in environments where the opposite is 
true. I usually left them pretty quickly. Life is short.


I've also trained sysadmins myself, and I can say, that holding 
back the sarcasm takes a real personal committment - to just not 
doing it.


Once you make that committment, it becomes easier and 
easier...and soon enough, you're back to treating people the way 
they deserve to be treated.


ultimately, its a personal choice, to treat people properly, or 
not.


I don't think it's a 'community' thing. treating people properly 
is not dependent on any sense of being in a 'community'. so here 
I differ with the view in that article.


(having said that, not all sarcasm is meant to offend. the best 
of friends can throw sarcasm at each other, and still be the best 
of friends).
