In response to Acidspunk,

I think that is the crux of the matter. Apart from the senseless petition to Nokia, how has abill balanced his posting with positive contributing actions? i can accept his postings and negative presence if he balanced it up with being a tester or developer.
I would even go so far as to not support this vote if he had contributed meaningfully but for all his posting, and for his presence, i cannot find one instance where he has contributed in terms of development (app, etc) or as a tester.

If you are actively developing/testing or contributing in a constructive manner, then you can be excused for the occasional rant and rave.

but then again, he is part of our resident troll zoo...
