Agree. Web2py has achieved a good ever growing userbase momentum now. 2 years ago there were like 6 threads created/updated daily in this Google groups discussion, Currently, its like 4-5 times that number. We are not the same skinny new kid on the block anymore. There is no need to hijack

@pbreit Reddit is clearly an informal place to promote new things. This includes some jokes and banter and Massimo and av200101 have a polite and informative style which always tends to be objective. We can of course all choose our words more carefully, but the ambience on Reddit seems more like

I have stated several times that Massimo should be very careful in advocating for Web2py. I'm still holding this opinion. But I won't elaborate on this. About the facebook clone. I do not see anything offensive about this video. I thought it's pretty good. But it can be improved. How?

It definitely would be nice if we could point to at least one high volume web2py-based site. A Reddit/Digg/HackerNews-type site might make sense. Although I'm wondering if we would be able to get much traffic? It also would be nice if we had some core apps available such as CMS, Blog, Forums,

Except that you have to be careful when you accuse people of making false statements. For example, pointing out that templates usually aren't python modules either is missing the point. Also, on #3, just take the high road. Pointing out that other people supposedly do the same bad behavior is

I believe the 'high road' comment would be better directed towards those making unreasonable, false statements. In the heat of the moment, Massimo did concede that it 'bothers' him. Such 'outbursts' are rather uncharacteristic, so we can assume he was somewhat displeased. Can we allow that

Massimo, sorry to say but I think your posting style invites the unwanted attention (av201001, too). I'm a Web2py supporter but I think they are right, we don't play well in the discussions. Posting a video under the title Facebook clone in 11 minutes is unnecessarily provocative. Joking about
