New forum suggestion.

With all the threads about this topic, I think we need a separate forum with the title "I will leave Arch but want to whine about it before, so I can hear the sound of noone caring". What do you think? Great idea?

Re: New forum suggestion.

I just think it's annoying when every week, someone has to post a thread on Arch discussion about that he is going to leave Arch accepting sympathy or whatever they expect. By putting those threads in a separate forum, I could ignore them.

Re: New forum suggestion.

I would have good web-chat service from archlinux.org

Maybe http:(not working)//chat.archlinux.org ? (which is using http://cgiirc.sourceforge.net/ )

PS: you can smite them instantly on the web!!

Re: New forum suggestion.

yeah..because it is so much better to post a whiney thread about other people whining..

yay!
We should have a section for people to whine about people who whine.. but if we did..I wouldn't have anything to whine about..and we can't have that. sad

Re: New forum suggestion.

Just make a sticky entitled, "The Mega-Colossal Why I'm Really Leaving Arch and Never Coming Back Thread". People can post in there and if they wander off a MOD can always just move their "testimonial" over with the rest. If people want, they can read and protest/attest. Those that have other things to do won't have to worry about tripping over YaET (Yet another Exit Strategy).

No, I'm really being serious.

Re: New forum suggestion.

How about just look into the future and see who all is going to abandon Arch Linux and kill them before they even have a chance to whine. It'd be like that movie with your favorite placenta-hungry scientologist.

I wouldn't complain if they would post in the Off-Topic forum.
