Wow....
As I was just reminded, and finally remembered myself, our friend Francis Earl is no more no less than mr lunitik, old time troll (but I must say its a bit of cluelessness sometimes) that for millions of times wanted to tell the ops and people at suse what to do. For millions of times he gave wrong advice at the suse irc channels. For millions of time he was trolling suse and novell in our channel and in other channels, notably ##linux at freenode.
You "remembered" because I made another aware of it. Someone that actually stuck up for me when I was banned from #ubuntu. To state that I am a troll is a little fetching, I have consistently had issues with the ops elitist attitudes, and have attempted to assist where I could. I'm coming from other distro's though, so sometimes there is an easier way to do it in SUSE. If the attitude of #suse was any better, I'd have stuck around long enough to enlighten myself and give the correct advice. Yes, I was misled about Novell dealings in the past, or maybe I just don't care anymore, I'm not entirely sure which, but I am hardly the only person to have voiced such concerns.
The ops know better, the people in there know better, they dont need your wonderful help on doing nothing and giving orders.
Why do they know better? They are born with this knowledge? The way they interact sometimes, you'd think they were. I am no n00b, yet I am treated as such because I do not know every function of yast or sax, because it has annoyed me when they've changed things I've set manually?
You need to be in there DOING it to know a thing or another about what has to be done, or what works, or whatever.
As I've said, I've been around IRC for almost 10 years, much of that time, I've assisted many people. I have been known to devote 10+ hours a day to assisting people on IRC, but I can admit I am ignorant to SUSE ways of doing things. That is no reason to persecute anyone.
Lunitik, Francis, or whatever: the mask has fallen down.
Again I state that *I* made people aware, it isn't some investigation you've completed. STOP trolling this thread, thank you. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
