I think the opinion that counts in this is the opinion of the people with ops. If I owned #windows on EfNet and Microsoft or Windows users came in and told me they didn't like my channel rules, I'd tell them to lodge their complains firmly up their anus. Now, I know the people in #freebsd are alot better people than that, but you can't expect that they're going to bow to everyone's whim. > grow up guys.

You honestly think that having a polite IRC channel is that big of a factor in having FreeBSD grow ? You have to be kidding me. > To summarize: to the #freebsd people: Your opinion doesn't matter! To summarize to you and anyone else who mistakenly thinks otherwise. If you don't have ops, your opinion does not matter. #freebsd is not yours simply because you run FreeBSD.
