This forum is truely unique
 
While the help you get in these forums is not seen everywhere, there are huge disadvantages of participating in a "developper" forum. They are talented in one aspect of computing but most developpers lack the social skills, the humor, the patience and the punani which would make them interact like normal human beings. I can hear some of them get mad at this and will seek revenge by trolling my next threads but that's all you do because your life revolves around here.

Edit: Obviously not everyone

I actually make a living by being a layer between poor-social-skilled developers and customers. :)

This forum IS unique. Talk about leaked firmware is frowned upon, however trolling is welcome in all forms. Nice.

Blanket statements like that are a form of logical fallacy.

Both of those statements are completely false.

If you want to debate it, though, bring facts instead of opinions.

I think h3llraz0r should host an online class for "poor-social-skilled developers."

FWIW, though this evidence is completely anecdotal, TMO is much more permissive than just about any forum I've been on before. I think this is both a good thing and a very bad one, in that it does discourage some very productive people otherwise from participating overly much.

Not that I'm honestly sure what the solution to this is, or if it should be solved.

I'll just go back to swigging whiskey so I can keep on participating myself. :P

I play sports, run, go off roading and get some pretty hot "punani" and I also code Perl, play in Linux all day and am an IT professional.

I also like long walks on the beach.

What do you do? :D
