At present it's a 3 day ban due to infractions from breaking the community rules. I believe it expires today.

Please stop enabling him by talking about him and stroking his ego (this isn't directed at ysss but at anyone reading this), and please realize that many of the posts that do so are breaking the same forum rules and could lead to infraction points.

We have a specific set of rules in this community that were carefully deliberated and reviewed by the community as a whole. The job of the moderators is to enforce those rules. Reggie's policy is of minimal intervention. Any action beyond enforcing of the rules will most likely be done through the council, which in turn is to represent the community.

Please keep to the topic of this thread now and take moderation policy discussion to another thread, and please bear in mind the community rules in the process. Finally, i know it's not always a solution, but if everyone would be careful not to enable trolling, it would reduce the friction. If someone makes a false statement, state the truth and give references, and leave it at that.

Sorry for the lecture; you may now return to your regular program.

It's like allaboutsymbian.com. More and more is about WP, soon everything will be WP.

IMO MeeGo has nothing to do here on a Maemo forum. It will be like OpenSUSE on a Ubuntu forum, or Bada :) on a MeeGo forum. Change the name of the forum, don't live in the past for sentimental reasons, it doesn't look pretty.

Considering Nokia merged Maemo into MeeGo, and many of the technologies and applications transition without much trouble, I don't get this.

Sometimes cross-distro discussion is a good thing. I've solved problems in Ubuntu using solutions for Fedora.

This is the only one that makes sense, since Bada is detached from every other mobile OS out there, especially MeeGo.

That said, this entire topic is silly since most MeeGo chatter has taken place in the Harmattan/MeeGo subforum.

I voted "other" because i wanted to qualify it: there's a Meego/Harmattan subforum and an Alternatives subforum. That's exactly where that kind of information can and should be posted.

Anywhere else in the forum is off topic and i would treat it as such.

Could you please me more specific because the way i am reading your post is that ANY talk of MeeGo on htis forum is off topic and should take place on the relevent forums? could you please clarify your thoughts on this.

He was stating MeeGo related topics should be posted in the meego/harmattan sub category of this site. Which I agree with. I hope you pay attention to this poll and stop your anti-meego trolling campaign. Thank you.

While i agree with you on some part i have looked at some of the comments regarding MeeGo on this forum and it is very much a mixed bag.

Some say it does not have a place on here, just like yourself, and others say the opposite that it is good to talk MeeGo on this forum.

Please pay attention to the poll results abill_uk, there is an overwhelming count against your view of no meego here, now kindly stop concentrating on the 8 people that agree with you and get back in line with the community. Thanks.
