4. Trolls return here en masse
Well, since all the new devices will have MeeGo, the new trolls don't (and shouldn't) know about Maemo and maemo.org. So, by the time point 4 happens, no troll will know what maemo.org is.

The part "noone will know what maemo.org is" scares me as well, but we could advertise it as a welcoming community for application developers and power users.

Yes, this is true.

I guess just be glad I'm only a minor moderator here with lttle power.
Agreed.
Please, consider PradaBrada too, please!
I think we can live without his "contributions" to this community.
(Although I'm sure he'll just register another account. But at least without that ridiculous-looking avatar of his.)
