There are, indeed, lots of people using Debian. Because of that, there's a
lot of Debian-related content on SLUG. That is not to the exclusion of
everything else - if you are not seeing enough coverage of your
distribution, post more.
There are lots of Mandrake users about now, especially after the Linux
Workshop, because we installed a *hell* of a lot of Mandrake.

It would be nice to keep this meta-discussion relevant and reasonable. If
you are looking for a productive response to your criticisms, making
outlandish comments and flaming will not get you there.
