*Checks url*

Yep, it still says 'Talk.maemo.org. Thought for a minute there I'd fetched up at 'talk.orangebox.org'.

You know what? it's not all about you. Can we get back to discussing maemo now please?

Now if only there was a way to have threads ignored if initiated by a user on the ignore list...
Well, there is... If you use FF and have Greasemonkey installed, this little script will get you rid of OrangeBox for sure (except from the 'Active Topics' list as it doesn't state who is the OP): http://www.topflashers.com/maemo/mis....maemo.user.js

I wanted to wait to get my N900 before joining the community (although I've been following this forum since August), so it's a shame that my first post here is about ignoring an attention whore, but I'd like to think that it's an investment in the future...

Cool, how do you add multiple users to it? I didn't look at it much except to see orangebox was hardwired into it.

Thanks!

Don't bother. You know how many people said that before you and they're always back. People like my threads even if they hate them.

Please start a new thread for this so that I can Thank! you. Brilliant first post, BTW.

Ok, it now accepts a comma-delimited list of trolls to ignore and live happily ever after. OrangeBox is still hardwired as a default ;)

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?

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.
laughed my arse off... good one... I was looking at his point of view, until he sprang the "Do you know how great I'm" bit

Re: OrangeBox is a troll...and you are so wrong
 
I won't even label you a troll. I would label you a rabble-rouser where it's not even needed.

You can dispute the N900 and still be civil - at least, that's my goal. But to have no real experience to stand on, you're just spouting out "hey, look at me" basically.

Any particular reason why you wish to continue down this path instead of gathering some real information and presenting a real stance/opinion based on usage and experience as opposed to overheard conversations and weak links to websites that would support darn near anything that you've stated?

Just wondering... what are you getting out of it?

The OrangeBox Blog aka No Sugarcoating Allowed
 
This is my blog. Don't bother reading it. I will not start other new threads as long as the community plays by my rules here.

This is my slice of the web. My universe. If you participate here, you are welcome. If you just read me, that's fine too. If you're a troll wannabe and need training, pop in as well.

Should I wake up with a headache then all bets are off. For the time being I will start with an easy topic: rules of engagement here.

1. don't try to impress me
2. don't sugarcoat your opinion; spill it out let me hear it
3. if you're a Nokia fanboy, go somewhere else
4. if you violate my rules I will retaliate

I hope you're aware that by stating that violations of "your rules" may well lead to people egging you on trying to get you banned.

Topic 2: looks are everything and looks are nothing, like the iPhone and the N900. Or trolls and Orangebox. Nokia and Apple fanboys are like religious bigots.

I think you're mistaken. This is not your personal blog. I'm pretty sure this is a place to contribute, but in all the threads I've seen you in I haven't seen you contribute anything...

OrangeBox's life is near perfect. Living with his lovely wife AppleBox and their 1 year old PearBoxlet, working in OrangeOffice working for the man aka OrangeBox.

I hate when companies make the same mistakes over and over and over again. Nokia is no exception. You can read these forums here and see it for yourself.

Apple is certainly not an angel either. Some people claim that they will lose the fight for dominance in the smartphone scene. I disagree.

Google is too big and it definitely will be probed and sued and end eventually forced to break up.

This was basically a very direct violation of my rules. Did I not offer a reasonable compromise? What was wrong with an OrangeBox thread?

Duh, let's go back and start posting again separate threads.

This isn't your site. You don't make the rules. I've warned you privately, and now I'll warn you publicly: stop spamming the fora with your inane threads and do not threaten the site or its users.

OrangeBox 2009-12-25 01:12
All bets are off
 
People need to be aware that this forum is a fully moderated one. Posts disappear, threads get merged, moved, yet when people are calling other people names that's apparently OK.

Oh, and who has the IP to a thread started? You have the ultimate weapon of banning me and I can always return ad infinitum.

Admins make the rules on a forum, with all the time you've spent on them you must be aware of that. Of course, the community at large can influence the rules but by reasoned argument rather than "X will apply in this thread".



Ok, I was a bit late. So sue me (or have OrangeBox do it ;))

Wow, this is bizarre. This board is going nuts. How can you feed a troll so much? Even troll hunters are spawning threads to "fight" the troll. Don't you all have a family to spend Christmas with? Wield the banhammer and STFU :rolleyes:

Interesting. There's no deleted post there. Might you have somehow missed submitting it?
