Re: Increase in rude and/or ignorent people lately
 
I am too lazy to read the whole thread, but i am quite sure, what it contains.
so, anywhore, i was thinking that TMO could've have a wall, where all users could post their posts, instead of creating a THREAD. Get it?

Sorry, i am too dumb to understand how to install Nitdroid, can smbd help me?
And he gets then a link from somebody, gets the answer. And this way we won't have that many threads, with a few posts in them, containing links and stuff. OFCUZ, the wall will be always trolled and full of stupid question, but the right column would be much more cleaner. IS IT POSSIBLE TO DO?

It is possible to do.

Anywhore, I think you are a very nice man Alf and I can't wait to see this plan of yours put into action.

RWJ rocks=)
Anyprostitute, this can only be done with the root power
Code:

sudo gainroot
dpkg - i /home/admin/TMO/wall_1.0.0.deb

Hey vi_, you've been keeping your femininity very well hidden here... and how does abill know your secret?

Hang on - is there something going on between you two? Do we have a TMO romance here?

500 sociopaths? Im at least 3 of them.

Vi_: You should forkbomb all the haters!

Bring back the old signature!

(Thread title changed to represent your EPIC idea!)

@anthonie: You hit the nail on the head! I did not want to go through all the silly threads in 'Alternatives' and post links to show this. But the vast majority are just rubbish that can be sorted by looking at the first page or by google! :eek:

The folks that came in, knew nothing about ITT, hated us old-timers that kept our N810's, the folks that resisted jumping to Qt were shunned for our GTK+ ways (like Druids, but hated moreso) and the negativity was immense.

Out comes the N9. New names, same ignorance, new device, same hatred to the prior group that existed here before them... same old story.

I'm all for change. Smoku had cleared some doubts regarding Meego and now it seems quite promising. I don't mind talk about Meego here. Keeps me informed and I don't have to visit Meego.com as much.

However I refuse to buy the N9 for the following reasons:

1. It looks abandoned even before it is released.
2. It's not really Meego so if Nokia abandons it you could be stuck without updates.
3. It's a Nokia.

If Elop had to leave and someone pro Meego had to be the new CEO and release further devices I would consider. But right now it's too risky to buy. I will happily wait for Meego devices from other manufacturers who embrace the platform if Meego is successful after all.

I enjoy using Maemo. I love my N900. I wish it had more RAM.

I proposed something like this here, to be called a Free Fire zone, a thread where no one was expected to have searched, and all questions and answers would be deleted every few days. Of course, anything posted of lasting significance could be transferred elsewhere.

Of course it could be done but no one was interested.
