Who the fuck do you think you are to tell me what I should and should 
not do and what I should get over?

Did it ever occur to you that maybe perhaps helping n00bs is part of my 
day job all day long and when I get home I might be sick of it? That 
maybe just maybe wine-users was a place populated by seriously clued up 
people who can discuss Wine at a level I find stimulating and that 
these days I can't find that anymore in the noise?

wine-user sand a forum do not mix. They never have and never will as the 
client base is two entirely different things.

Guess what, that precious link to the forum that you are so fond of 
claiming is here to stay - it isn't. A few clicks from the right person 
and it's dismantled too. Consider that.

And while you're at it, go find esr's essay on mailing list questions 
and find the bit about technical lists that degenerate into oblivion 
from too many "don't run wine as root" posts

Don't bother replying, I'm gone. This list is no longer fun and I have 
just run out of patience being here.
