This is a multiple choice poll and your choices can be seen by all

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

No fair, qwerty12 helps himself :D

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

I got the idea after pb voted for himself, we're all going to be doing it anyway :D

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Yes, well like qwerty, I help myself, probably more often than other people help me. Seems fair to include yourself :)

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

I independently decided I help myself (voted before looking at the results); then again, since I voted myself as having the biggest ego, consistency requires it... :D

Interesting to compare the results of this with the ego poll, perhaps it will confirm whether those egos are justified. ;)

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Honorable mentions for Jaffa?

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Aww, thanks. I haven't checked my "thanks" total between 'aflegg' and 'Jaffa'.

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Tough to choose. Gnuite should rank up there but he isn't one of the choices on the list.

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

There is no question that Gnuite should be up there as well as Jaffa and Bundyo (for the crossover office link yesterday alone) as well as many others.

But if I chose to include certain people others would feel left out. So I chose top 10 posters, Bundyo is #11. But I can only make 10 poll options. So I hope you all understand, this is by no means the top 10 helpful people at ITT. It's more trying to rank the most helpful from the top 10 chatty posters.... Post for post who's the most helpful...

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Academy award style, there should be several categories. Someone who writes or ports a helpful program is doing something very different than someone who explains yet again how to use one.

I have my own private list of heroes. Ideally, there would be a virtual stadium roof, and the uniforms of the best would be nailed there and their numbers retired, as in basketball.

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

qole, your in second, aren't you gonna vote?



EDIT:
sabotage!

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

That's it!! I"m going to post on every thread just so I can get onto one of these polls.

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

I voted, but I needed to keep with my "humble" appearance, so I didn't vote for myself.

Thanks so much to those of you who did vote for me, though! I'm a rich man; just not with money.

EDIT: Penguinbait,

Hee Hee

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

I wonder how many of the voters are counting the wiki that was mostly put together by me. ;)

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Muhahahaha, I am the one and only egotestical bastard here :D

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

heh, im glad i didnt make the list ;)

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Sure, now you're all listening to me!

At least I can honestly say that I did not vote for myself... But honestly, isn't anyone grateful about the feeling of moral superiority I gave them? :o

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

I notice that. Thanks GA. That is a lot of work without credits, a truly unsung hero. Salute.

Would somebody kind enough to crack the virginity of KJ, so far... :-|

I'll pop his cherry. I read my share of daily tech news, but I probably wouldn't have ventured over to the Pandora site as early as I did if it weren't for KJ. Although I didn't pre-order, I consider it to be a significant project: a further step towards hardware and software freedom and independence.

So there.

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

I had to. While others on the list have assisted me with tablety issues, you helped this country boy not only understand the basic workings of public transportation, but understand the basic workings of public transportation in German. Without your help, I'd likely still be lost somewhere in Berlin, probably having not yet even reached the Ibis.

Strangely, in real life you conspicuously lack a big, lime green "Thanks!" button, so voting for you here will have to do.

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

After Berlin qole has his own real life glass of lime green Thanks every night (or has it all gone now?)

Actually, since Berlin he has been slurring his words more than usual ;)

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

This was tough because everyone on the list has helped me at one time or another--even KJ and TR! :D

Although I chose the top three based on the few interactions in the past couple of years that this old brain can actually recall, I want to say THANKS to all of you! A phone is just a phone, but the IT comes with a community!:)

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

You just spoke the words that I did not find. Thanks, Greyghost

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Ha, i actually posted something to the effect of this, but i deleted it because i didnt want to incur your wrath... buttttt anyway....

It was something like
"Karel helped me a lot.... by narrowing this list down to 9"

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Qwerty, in the lead!!!!!

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Guess again. :D

I wish I knew how to take that... :p

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Most definitely a compliment! Surely you recall the dilemma you helped me solve: I have an N810 but not the old cat!;)

Seriously, you are one of the reasons I continue to visit the forums! I've read of tribulations in another thread and I certainly wish you luck.

I hope you'll continue to harass me and the rest of the group here.

How does it go? 'Clowns to the left, jokers to the right' but here you are!:D

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

The sad thing about this poll is that it's so timebound, to the point where the contributions of TA-t3 and Milhouse are so diminished...

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

I agree with you, Texrat. Do you know why Milhouse no longer contributes? He hasn't posted since January 2008...

I still use a highly modified version of his OS cloning script.

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Milhouse got fed up with bug responses.

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Aha. I found it, in his own words (Feb 15 2008):

That kind of post always makes me sad. Helpful, engaged members of the community suddenly burn out, like the recent rant-then-disappearance of Krisse (and I'm starting to think Brontide might have succumbed too (1) (2) (3).)

I wonder if I'll get all jaded and angry sometime in the near future, too?

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

hell, i have not been around as long as them but even i can sense the crossing interests of old corp and open source.

watch bug reports go "fixed in fremantle/WONTFIX" and not knowing if fremantle will be new hardware only do not help.

basically i loved the tablet idea from theday i read about the 770 in linux journal (i probably have it here somewhere) but if the pandora goes into proper production i may well call it quits.

to tired of nokias differnenciations. maybe this is what they fear those that want to be prepared for a government overthrow...

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Well, that, and Nokia's poor handling of the project in general. He's not completely gone, anyway, he still pops into #maemo every once and a while and still fights the good fight on Bugzilla most of the time. ;)

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

It's sad that he doesn't come over here any more.

Yes, he's been seen on #maemo, but sadly, he's still saying the same things:

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Milhouse still comments in Maemo Bugzilla, but quite often with a grain of criticism towards Nokia, which I can understand after all these years.

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

The more you communicate your expectations to make Fremantle available for the N8x0s, the more might Nokia understand. If it really helps in the end is another question of course... :cool:

(And I hope people understand that the "WONTFIX for Diablo" are not my own decisions in fact.)

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

Andre we realize you're the messenger and don't deserve the bullet. ;)

Thanks for your efforts.

Re: Poll: Who has been the most helpful to you? Top 10 Posters (multiple choice)
 

...and we're the community, over here in ITt. Reggie isn't even associated with Nokia in any way. So there should be no Finnish Corporate Politics over here. Just a bunch of opinionated users doin' stuff with our tablets. So come back, Milhouse!
