Hi :)
I had one person say they "gave up on" LibreOffice when they asked about how to 
switch off insert mode and no-one here knew how to do that through the menus.  
I must admit i didn't see the question and doubt the validity of whether they 
really did ask here.  Also they weren't happy with the idea of pressing the 
"insert" key on their keyboard.  Apparently MS Office has a 3 clicks solution 
to it and we (allegedly) didn't give a suitably long-winded equivalent.  

Then another person grumbled about how the UI looks so old now, compared to the 
shiny ribbon-bar.  They then said they hated the ribbon-bar because they could 
never find anything they needed on it unless it was a feature they used all the 
time.  However they still wanted to know why LO didn't have a ribbon-bar and 
asked me how long before it would get one.  


When faced with morons such as that i think the best advice is to just leave 
them to it.  Get on with helping other people instead.  Sometimes the gentlest 
nudge in the right direction is enough.  Sometimes you can see that people 
really are trying and are going to break-through but other times you just know 
that people are purely looking to create problems and then blame them on you.  
So, walk on by.  
Regards from 
Tom :)
