It would be better not to indulge in any more personal attacks on people,
the state of their software, their color sense, or attack the categories
you
think they belong to. This is where we came in, and it led to a mess. It
is completely unhelpful.
What would be very helpful is if Rev felt able to give an update of some
sort on how the Linux stuff is progressing. This would also be more on
topic.
Ya know, Peter. You are absolutely right in the normal course of things and
I would completelty agree with you. However - my observations stand.
Everybody is a newb somewhere sometime (as I have been to this community).
Questions need asking and people try to help - it's about community and this
list has a great foundation on that. But when some guy takes (demands) help
and gets it then turns around and acts like a complete ass then he has
literally set himself up as fair game. He never even had the guts to profer
a simple apology. He just carried on as if it were his own personal right
to do as he pleases when he pleases whereever he pleases. If that means
slandering people - he's happy to do that. I'm probably a member of more
programming related forums than most for various reasons and I'd have to say
this guy has succeeded in putting himself right up their in my personal top
5 of people who deserve no assistance what so ever. I personally wish he'd
take a long walk - off a rather short cliff. I have no compassion for him.
That is not my doing - it is his. BTW - stating newb color choices is very
helpful. Any person starting out can take from this that this choice of
color scheme is probably not wise. HIG's exist for a reason. Study of
HIG's is every bit as important as the study of raw code. It's highly
relevant.
