Hmm, why bother with top posting when you don't care about topics? And why is everybody that tries to keep a list on topic a hypocite?
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hypocrite?show=0&t=1287519185 2: a person who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings so whereas you were hell on wheels for people being offtopic for a 'KDE sucks rant', you're perfectly fine with the nostalgia trip somewhat akin to 'mine's bigger than yours cuz I had hardware that sucked so much more than yours' that would be the hypocritical part.
Do you also tell that to the developers in a bug reporting mailing list when they tell you that you sent your mail to the wrong list? If not, why?
I'd suspect if developers for said list (say it's for widgets), responded as 'thats OT, take it to another list' for and only for discussions started about wingdings, but never about foobars - then yes, they would be hypocrites as well. -- Even the Magic 8 ball has an opinion on email clients: Outlook not so good. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
