Personal attacks, sarcastic remarks and the lack of respect to other members are missing far too often. Being too emotional and in some cases fanatic turns some threads into flame wars. There is so much that we can learn from the iPhone community.

Disclaimer: I don't own an iPhone and don't plan to own one either, but I follow their forums to learn their perspective and I can tell you that they are so much more civilized than we are.

Before you start posting insulting remarks to this thread take a deep breath and check out some of the iPhone forums out there and LEARN that there is a better way.

Peace.

If we look at the history of threads orangebox has started. I'm thinking that the best thing we could do is to just stop replying to these provocative threads.

We should follow the lead of iphone and iphone forums. REMOVE THAT WHICH IS OFFENSIVE! Ban him and delete any comments that go against the status quo! Since its not possible to actually get every memeber to act a certain way, the only way to proactively try to regulate something like this, would be with strict rules and a mod community to strictly enforce them (which I imagine is the case with other forums in existence). If that were the case, there may not even be a competition section, and im sure this thread would have been deleted.

Or, this community is full of egotistical, I-know-knothing type geeks that have no respect for what others have to do to answer all noob-questions they DEMAND answers to ??

That is the other side of it. But I think you are right in a sense, but still confused. This site quite claerly needs a crash course in Linux and using the X-term. This should be done from a total noob kind of view for persons who never have used a command line. Right now it is assumed that this knowledge is either known, or is obtained from elsewhere. This is way too arrogant for a site that try to be THE community for Maemo.

So, I don't disagree, I simply think you are a bit misinformed :D

You make a statement but have yet to support it at all. I want to see empirical evidence. I want to see statistics and pie charts and research papers. Thats whats wrong with this world. People (politicians are the worst) run around making wild accusations and claims and COMPLETELY disregard providing support.

NOTE: I am not providing support for this statement, if you will notice, which lumps me in with the idiots I'm complaining about. However, hypocrisy aside, the principle is sound.
