"All", somebody who calls a whole platform "idiot" lacks any respect for those who work in that field. Doing so repetetively whenever mentioning "phones", is not a slip of the keyboard but is done intentional - which puts the author in the very vincinity of his own vocabulary.
I don't want to read this kind of indignity ever and anon. I've rarely seen such constantly condescending and trolling behavior being tolerated as long as with this individual. Loaden with self-advertizing links, his rants and unproven premises often need no more factual base than his opinion and in their narcissistic self-repetition they have long become spam. It is fine to have an opinion. It's ok to state it clearly. But to hawk it with almost every email and in every non-related context is getting a tad tedious. I don't want programmers (like me) to be insulted as "script kiddies" and "12 year old boy"s with "shabby skill levels" that write "idiot apps" for "idiot phones" that have "the lifespan of a fruit fly". It's ok to be carried away a bit, but these deliberate defamations are a pattern. I don't want to read all that self-righteous boasting about his experience from the age of vacuum tubes and Zuse I. I just don't care. It's just OT, as Giuseppe D'Angelo pointed out a while ago. I don't want to read stuff like "QML (puke)" from somebody who has long passed puberty. I do appreciate the open discussion style on this list. I even do appreciate a somewhat harsh style, if it has a factual base and is getting straight to the point instead of b*s*ing around. But those lengthy wallpapers our President of Logikal solutions commonly utters, have long since crossed the border from amusing to annoying. As for me, I have just plonked Roland Hughes again (no, not the first time). But that doesn't help if I have to read through all the avalanches of replies who just feed the troll (like mine now, probably). I'd be happy to see him banned, at least temporarily. But then again, I am just a 12-y-o script kiddie (not true) with a shabby skill level (true), so you won't really need advice from me. Sorry for the rant. Won't happen again on this topic.
