For my part, I prefer to do that sort of thing off-channel. People get overly fond of themselves when you publically support them against somebody else. The exception is when I'm about to dispose of them, since there's little point hiding that and it's less typing. In this particular case, I probably wouldn't have kicked the ubuntu freak out that quickly, but that's just a matter of personal approach... I prefer to let them run on a bit longer to see if people can shake some sense into them. Or I'm just more patient. No way was it on-topic. Offtopic stuff is tolerated so long as it's harmless, amusing, or not getting in the way; otherwise not. I don't have any serious objections to this one. -- .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** | Andrew Suffield : :' : http://www.debian.org/ | `. `' | `- -><- |
