There are not nearly enough moderators on here to handle the surge of, well, stupid that seems to have followed in the wake of the N900's announcement.

Sad to see long-time members get pushed around by the immature and insulting.

Happens everywhere on the internet considering total anonymity. Still is horrible but nothing anyone can really do.

Maemo and open source in general is about tolerance, respect and collaboration all in a friendly atmosphere. sad to see this place gradually going to the dogs
you are right. i won't take it back though. said it is said it.
it's just a way of expressing for me that i hate it when the racism flag goes up.

and btw. why don't you comment on the racism flag going up?
is calling somebody a racist less worse than mocking people when they talk racism **** out of the blue?

saddest part is, when something is true, people feel offended. If someone makes a joke about Dubai is so poor, noone cares because they know they are not. But if it is Nigeria, oh hell yeah all of a sudden it's a disaster. Whats next?? if we DONT joke about them, they feel offended because they get the feeling that people think you should not joke about them because they are a third world country or some other made up fantasy why they are being left out.

so in other words. when there is BS flying around, fan's get hit. And when people their fan's are getting hit, they start throwing their own BS. And that is when the fan's are hitting the BS. and when the Fan's are hitting the BS instead of the BS hitting the fans, that is when the BS has really hit the fan.

Yeah, so anyway, about that mobile device we're all rabid for..
I sure do hope Dell does update on Thursday or so as everyone said. How long does everyone think I should wait before I cancel and suck it up and order through Amazon, going to the bottom of the queue? 2 weeks after others ship?

You completely miss the point. My issue is the fact that my initial comment did not warrant the reply I got. I was talking about how my order got canceled instead I got this reply

It's not racism spin-meister! Don't try that BS with me. Your Country is a constant stream of scams, ergo the Joke. Get it!

And shortly after that I won 187 Lotteries averaging 15 Million each, all in the first month! On Paper I'm worth a lot more than Donald Trump, Bill Gates, and the Queen of England combined! All gratis of our dear friends in Nigeria.
Try to blame me for not being able to take a joke. but really we don't have to go that route. every country in the world has got a sore spot. And there is no need to victimize its citizen just because of it. I made a post about how my N900 pre-order was canceled installed I had **jokes** poked at me because of where am from. It doesnt make any sense IMHO. If this is becomes the pattern of interaction in maemo.org. Then we have indeed lost a community.

.................................................. ..and on and on and on it goes.
Oh lord. No lets brush off some of this touchy feely stuff and man up.

That´s what my mother told me back in the day.

"Unwarranted" or "warranted" jokes, sometimes they´re funny and sometimes they´re not. Lets leave it at that.

PC is completely sterilizing human interaction these days.
