coward. Denigratenator. And such.
Keith,
I respect you are a very knowledgeable person who knows more about C
minutia than me. I study C and your input and converse is part of why I
consider myself expert (yes, I really do...). However, your opinions
change my coding style and content for the better.
You need to realize that you are responding to my posts with negative
comments. You are the mostly the FIRST poster. Why can you not just wait
a day or three, and let others post first. I am not writing personal
messages to you on the newsgroup. It's OK to ignore ones you don't like.
Let some others post before you chime in and "poison the well" with your
negative comments, please.
Here are the comments you make on my posts. Note that there is less
content than my post:
=====
"Please consider increasing your signal-to-noise ratio."
"Let us know when you have something useful to add to the discussion."
"No."
"I see you've been posting a lot today. Unless I've missed something,
you have said *nothing* topical. A little joking around is ok, but
could you *try* to talk about C? Maybe you could start by shooting for
a 50% topicality ratio"
"Maybe you could leave me alone. At least stop dragging my name into
your "humor"." (note: it was not you or your name that was used, but
someone else. In fact I doubt your father was even named Thomp!)

Keith, I don't drag you in - you butted in! This forum is just a Q & A
session amongst friends. Stop trying to control the content of
professional C programmers, while promoting answering homework questions
from Outsource countries. Some of us are in dire straits and you are
yelling about humor while helping someone else steal my job! You are too
sensitive, and too controlling. You are wrong and you are anal.
Please stop harassing me with negative comments.
Any comments about mistakes are VERY welcome; I value your input. I care
NOT about your criticism about whether my post is "funny", "amusing",
"on [or off] topic", or any other negative comment. I get it! You don't
like some of my posts.
Here's a chart to spell it out:
A. Don't read them
B. Shut up!
C. Have I been WRONG??? Am I putting out bad info????
D. Are you NUTS?
e. There is no e.
F. **** You - it's the Internet! Stop following me!
G. Get a Life
H. + double hockey sticks. The place I will see you in after you die
I. The REAL problem here! - hey wait!
J. Joke implies a sense humor which you don't seem to posssesss (how do
you spell that anyways?)
K. Killfile (but really, please don't - I respect your opinion when you
aren't menstruating)
L. Lame posts.
M. ME. I look for info to help ME. Homework does not help ME.
N. Newbies don't interest ME. See above.
O. Oh, you got this far? Well, then you got to the end.
