Makes sense. There's a simple rule on the internet: don't feed the troll. We have a troll here (and if you read other threads or join the 9front communication channels every now and then, you'll quickly notice them). I never tried to change their behavior, because they're adults, and usually that kind of trolling stays within borders and they usually have a point (showing the absurdity of questions, for example). It's important to know what you can ignore and what you can learn from it. I can safely say that I ignore many of those troll mails. I read them, I find the relevant truth, ignore everything else in that mail, then I go on with the next mail in that thread. It's far from a professional environment. On the other hand, most of us do Plan 9 as a hobby. Don't take everything so seriously. In the 9front mailing list some mails are just links to music or funny videos/articles. It's only natural that some of this relaxed behavior spills over to the 9fans mailing list. If you want a true™®© professional environment, just set up a slack. And yes, this is somewhat of a troll (I'm not good at it). > Take care This is very important. Take care. Have a nice day and enjoy the sun from the shadows. sirjofri ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/Te051f230f2656bbb-M95a4cb9d7708227dad7d179b Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
