I know it's very hard to understand this troll, and its motives, given its propensity to verbally masturbate itself into a frothing frenzy. Allow me to translate: On Tue, 18 Jan 2005 Freebsd0101@aol.com whined thusly: > And this coming from a guy who thinks he's so smart that hes spamming > some poor tax attorney who likely never has heard of FreeBSD? What a > turd you are Mrs. Butterworth. But I find your confidence in your > stupidity quite entertaining! [translator ON]: I can't really address anything anyone has had to say to me about my behavior. Therefore, I shall now attempt to create an appearance of impropriety upon you, in an attempt to sidetrack the discussion away from what is relevant. For my next trick, I may even attempt a dictionary or spelling flame. [TL:OFF] > > Actually, Thad, I've stated my case, and got the president of the FreeBSD > foundation to publically admit that I'm right about 5.x performance. I've > only "insulted" people who insulted me or my claims first. > I'm sure that a lot of people considering 5.x won't waste their time with it > now, which is much more of a "service" than you have ever provided. [TL:ON] I think am right about one thing, in a whole slew of other things I am wrong about. Therefore, because I lack a clue, I have to assume this means I am right about everything I say. If I said it, I guess it must be true! Furthermore, I just have to say, because I am obviously right, I expect each and everyone of you to bow before my astounding powers of logic in this regard, and if you dont, well, I am more right than you are, so that makes you a moron. [TL:OFF] > What you list jockeys don't "get" is that just because you don't care > about an issue doesn't mean that its not an important issue to a lot > of other people; people who don't spend their time flaming people about > issues they don't know the first thing about just for the sake of doing > it. [TL:ON] What you don't get is, I want what I want, right now, and if I don't get it, I am going to whine like a baby who has a soiled diaper, and just got fed mashed potatoes with a slingshot. My problem supercedes all other things that the FBSD team is working on together as a whole, I am impatient, and have little or no concern for the project as a whole. My problem is more important than any of you, and, in this regard I have tunnel vision. As a result, it is I who will jockey this list, and drop little troll bombs in, every now and then, to see if anyone is silly enough to bite. I really have nothing better to do, as I refuse to help the situation in any fashion. I steadfastly refuse to help whatsoever, other than to spread FUD at every oppertunity I get. Please hold me. [TL:OFF] > And from where do you "get" that I think FreeBSD is bad? FreeBSD 4.x > is great. I just wish they'd support it instead of calling 5.x a production > release before its even close to 4.x performance standards. [TL: ON] I really just want to live in the past, ridicule a process I do not like, because it dosent address my selfish needs right this minute. I have little reason to care for the development process, nor do I care anything about what the team as a whole is trying to accomlish. If it were up to me, 5.x would never be called a production release, because, I can always find something I am not happy with if I look hard enough. I already am predisposed to preferring 4.x, and nothing you say will dissuade me from this, as I lack objectivity, the ability to rationally discuss things in a professional manner, and am unwilling, or unable to help. I really need to have some dispense a cluepon to me in the worst way. I also need to be placed in everyone's killfile. Because, if you do not, I will continue to spread FUD, half truths, and generally be a pain in the butt, because I just cannot stand the fact that my own *personal* problem is not being addressed how I feel it should be. [TL: OFF] Folks, this guy really does lack social skills. If you look up any of his threads, the boil down to the following themes: 1) FBSD 5.x is not as polished as 4.x (there are bumps and bruises in any development process. Some of us work with them. Some of us give up, FreeBSD 5.x is not a failure. Some of us love it, some of us tolerate it. But the vast majority here at least try to *help* the situation, not hinder it) 2) He dosent like the process by which FBSD is developed, or the process by which choices are made and executed. 3) He is going to try to interject his tunnel vision, and his gripe on any thread that might lend his petty arguments some kind of credibility. 4) He really is just pissed cause he can't have his way, right now. Rather than help, he wishes to cause problems. In closing, killfile this guy. He lowers the signal to noise ratio. That does nothing but drive down the quality of the list. -- Duo
