Everyone seems to be friendly enough to me
I've been here on and off since 2007 and most of the angst seems to be only in the last month or so and only seem to be centered around a few people.

On the whole I love the Maemo community and have found most people to be very helpful to all the people around them which is why I love reading and visiting these forums.

Again people are here for one reason - Maemo. Which means we all have a common interest

I agree I think this is an isolated (in time) incident. Perhaps the squeeky wheel does get the grease....

I have been here almost a week now, eg a n00b. Recent controversial cross-posting (&what not) incident might or might not be usual every now and then, but I think two very different kinds of readers visit t.m.o. First are the devs and NIT enthusiasts and the second are users who have never used NIT before, maybe communicators at most and now want to know everything there is to know about N900.

The first group know the ropes of the forum and know how it behaves when incidents happen and my guess is that the most eager people from the second group makes those incidents happen. N900 is bringing two worlds together and t.m.o might really need to evolve a little in the process.

I admit that I am no dev nor user of previous NITs, I have only been using communicators for about 4 years now so I belong to the group looking for answers. And as some might have seen already, I react poorly to push and shove type of tactics when trying to ignore the other group.

I really really like the fact that here are some old timers who know what is what, some who are in the know and the fact that not everyone is here just to look for answers. I am happy to know and actually see, that there are a lot of people who are here to give answers to those willing to listen.

I'd like to help t.m.o anyway I can, answers about maemo are not my forte though. . Oh, ~4 paragraphs and almost each I started with me... I like myself be heard I guess.

I think we all just have to be more open with one another.
I propose something like this to be MANDATED in everyone's sig:

I they are a little bit too big for my taste. Perhaps a compacted version would be better?

Yeah, true. Even puttin size=1 only resizes the font, not the code box.
