I'm just very tired of fanatics trying to shove their beloved editor/OS/religion/whatever down everyone's throat.

P.S. I don't demand any deletion (ignore the flag please). I've just said what I think about it and that's enough.

Wow. I just came back here after a long time away after receiving an email notification that someone had revived an ancient thread.

FFS, my comment was intended as a joke - y'know - humor? Admittedly it wasn't one of my best and it wasn't exactly side-splittingly funny but if you have any experience of IT you'd know that the argument over which text editor is better is older than punch cards.

You really think I was trying to force my personal preference of text editor "down everyone's throat"?! I really don't give a monkey's arse what editor you use. It's up to you.

And do you really think that some newcomer or passer-by is going to come across this thread and then decide that the whole board isn't suitable for them just because someone dared to make a joke about f**king text editors?!?

By the way, I'm stuggling to understand what was sexist and discriminatory about HtheB's comment?

Well, that's all from me. Until the next troll revives another ancient thread....
