I start this thread to make sure that people understand my intentions / motives and hopefully keep reading my posts.
1. every community has good members, new members, old members, bad members and just any other combination of personality traits. I may post negative but I never attack people at the personal level. I criticize a lot to further the progression of the N900 and Maemo.
2. I am not a troll. People call me idiot, childish, immature, homosexual, ill-informed and many other things. Please, think twice because you post things like that.
3. searching is not the answer. I do some due diligence before posting, but I will not spend hours googling for some answer that I may never find. Posting on forums is faster.
4. I post a lot, criticize a lot and ask a lot of questions - all in the name of selfish furthering my knowledge of these technologies. If you have a problem with it, don't bother responding to me. You may call me a leech, but I guarantee you that over time I will answer more and ask less. Plus sometimes asking questions (obvious to some) may still be invaluable to others that would have never bothered asking unortodox questions.
5. I am no saint but nor are you. I have a thick skin but if you think that you have to enter into a fight with me "to feed the troll", don't bother. I am not posting to fight anyone.
Also, think that you're on a forum of N900 fans and you don't seem to be one. Why do you keep posting negative stuff? There are plenty of forums on the net, just get one that reflects your opinions and tell what you want on it.
Posting negative stuff here is like going on a Honda forum, and tell that their cars never work properly...

You may be surprised if I revealed who I really was. My education, social status, purchasing power may be out of reach for many people on this forum.
Yes, I hear ya about the presentation argument and I give you that, but please consider that my threads, mostly thank by their catchy titles generate a lot of traffic. Sorry, but this is my style.
So, you want some fish. Instead of going fishing, like the rest of the world, you instead enjoy walking up to a bear who has just caught his own.. and continuously poke him with a stick.
I'll admit.. it does get you attention.. but then there is no need for this thread: It's attention you're seeking, it's attention you're getting - just because the attention you're getting is completely proportional to the way to seek it is not something worthy of complaining about.

Do you realize what you just said? You basically just admitted that you intentionally create things to piss people off, just to drive traffic to your thread, and then you're somehow surprised when you get attacked?.

*sigh*.
I am sorry OrangeBox... for it is quite obvious I have failed you.
I shall take my leave of this discussion. Be well, good sir.

What is your education and profession that you have such high purchasing power. No seriously, I'm interested.
