Nathan, these are emails sent directly to me - not to the list. This "person" does not deserve called a user; they're a troll. Don't believe me? Look on foundation-l. You will find a mostly-civil attempt to set community against community. And, he is using the very words of Wikinewsies to get others to clamour for the project to be shut down. He has likely already emailed various other potential demographies that might be inclined to engage in a flame-fest he wishes to sit back and enjoy. I've seen it before. Countless times. And performed to varying skill levels. He's a. Not very good at it, and b. Failed to crosspost it to nntp://alt.alien.vampire.flonk.flonk.flonk There is absolutely no reason why discussion on Milos' advertising idea can't be carried further here. Milos is looking at that for Serbian WN, so discussing on enwn isn't appropriate. -- Brian McNeil <[email protected]> http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Brian_McNeil Content of this message in no way represents the opinions or official position of the Wikimedia Foundation or any of its projects.
