There's nothing random or abusing here, just feedback on Kwalitee

I understand that that's how you see it, but the vast majority of people
do not. Most people would see your attitude towards their "tender
little feelings" as being an asshole, and not want to deal with you.
That is not a way to encourage volunteers to work on projects.
Oh, I was talking about the Kwalitee hall of shame, not what goes on in
this mailing list. I also made a point that the negative feedback on
the HoS list should be given in a respectable manner.
There are lots of ways to make a list respectable, including removing
words with negative meaning, making the list only contain module names and
not authors. Feel free to suggest your own NewSpeak-inspired redoing of
the page, if you really think it's this important. Just don't remove the
entire list simply because of the _possibility_ that someone's
sensibilities might be hurt!
(BTW, do you want to remove ALL halls of shame? What about the one on the
Perl Foundation wiki?
<http://www.perlfoundation.org/perl5/index.cgi?hall_of_shame> )
- Salve, worried that the next step is to paint pink ponies and rainbows
all over CPAN.
