What he did was not a flame, the manner in which you responded certainly did look like a flame to me. Sure, in an OT thread he didn't need to mention that this was a Debian related list but it seemed harmless that he did mention that, not something to get ones ego in a twist about. It seemed to me he was mostly suggesting that Debian would do everything mentioned, if used as it was intended to be used, that it wasn't necessary to change to a different OS or derivative . That had the potential to be useful information for the OP and on topic for the question. In addition, your opinion doesn't look very humble, what you wrote seemed to be an arrogant attack. Now I think it possible you will flame me for pointing this out to you. Please don't. And, please notice the difference between asking, "please don't" and writing, "don't you dare". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
