No, I don't think RIT could or should implement every featured
requested. But that's not my point. My point is, every so often I
see vocal veterans (who are generally very nice and helpful to
newcommers) turn offensive upon seeing certain questions/feature
requests.
Q: why can't TB resort my folders automatically? why can't I
redefine shortcuts? why can't I re-arrange my toolbar buttons?
A: blah, blah, blah... (detailed answers and courteous through out)
Q: why can't I use proportional fonts? why can't I send html mail?
A: what a stupid request, you're unfit to be a parent (uh, to use
email, I mean), go back to LookOut... blah, blah, blah.
Get the picture?
