Comments for PCLinuxOS's militant leadership

Oli,in your defense,I might be able to think you acted within reason to fire back by publicly showing a page as you have.
Getting banned because of what started out as just your opinion,is a lot of crap.They don't like you opinion,or hear what you have to say,so you get banned.NO.It don't work that way,and you have proved that FACT.
But,understand this.YOU started this mess with YOUR unfounded reports.
I believe your review was awful,you didn't research anything to it's fullest,and now YOU are complaining?
Do you think you can publish what may be interpreted as a intended lie,something obviously incorrect,and not raise a few hairs on the back of someones neck?
You know now that you were wrong,and you still don't care.
You published this article without any regret.
An email from Texstar is not what should of stopped this in its tracks.
You should of never even considered a article like this.
You are to blame,NOT Texstar.

In the very page from the thread that you saved, prior to what Tex said, here is what you directed at another poster.
"That's the problem here... You don't think"
"You won't read it or, at least, understand it"

Those aren't the only comments you made either. No matter what the others threw at you, you were right there slinging it too, no better than the rest of them. That and previous posts and your original review destroyed most of your credibility. It's ok for you to say rude things, but boy if some other person says something watch out or I'll take full advantage of it and get my article. The people you were fighting with were regular users of a distro. You were the person that was supposed to be professional in writing you're review. If you can't take criticism as a reviewer without "fighting back", then why are you writing articles? And also somewhere you stated something along the line of if Tex would email me we would see about the future of this article. I don't know where that statement is or where it went, but you did say something along those lines, and I thought it was in this article. So make kissy kissy and this would all go away?? Why should he bother writing, you'd probably just twist something else around that he said and make yet another baseless article out of it.

"My crime? I mention Ubuntu"
Hardly, some blamed that for some reason, I don't understand why either, but your crime was your first "review", and your conduct afterwards".

As to my identity, who cares, you wouldn't know me if I did put it here. I rarely interject myself, very rarely. I could put in any name, anyone could, maybe not everyone else is who they say they are. Oli may id me by the email address I use, it will always be the same one if I choose to post here. As to flaming, INCSlayer, could you explain exactly what you mean by that in what I said, seriously? Nothing I said wasn't the truth, by actions that Oli and the others have taken, previous articles, posts, etc., so how is the truth flaming anyone? I don't care if Oli criticizes PCLOS all he wants he had valid points, and his own opinions, as long as they are based on fact. Nothing has to do with his second review (which is not a bad review). This has to do with the first one, which started the problem. It was very erroneous, admittedly so, otherwise it would not have been heavily edited. And to Oli as far as reading the entire page, thanks I did. I also read the entire thread on that forum, as well as most of the posts here including the ones that you deleted, and your first review before edit. As an outside observer to this whole mess until now, I stand by what I say. As to calling INCSlayer a 'buntu fan, why would I? I don't care what distro you use, and have nothing against you at all, so if you choose to lump me in with others, so be it. I still have kubuntu on three of my machines, as well as Vector on one (a good distro indeed!). PCLOS is on my main one because it is faster on this machine, but as long as something works, who cares what another person uses, perhaps I should rephrase that, I DON'T CARE. I've had issues with every distro I've tried, none are perfect. I hang around many forums, because I choose to.

By the way Oli, good luck with Kittenauth, it is a unique idea and works nicely. Just because a person has an opinion about certain situations, that is no reason not to get along, correct?

I'm so impressed with PCLinuxOS (and have been since first downloading and trying 093a "Big Daddy") that I find it hard to think anyone could find any fault with it at all. The countless hours Texstar and the Ripper gang spent giving us this polished and easy to use right out of the box distro fills me with gratitude and loyalty to the best Linux distro available (my opinion). I've tried the others and just found PCLinuxOS alone to do everything, as well as pick up on such essential things as my Wireless LAN right on the install instead of a lot of messing around, and never getting it working like on the other top rated distros out there, as well as finding it works great on all my PC's I've loaded it too as well as my old IBM T22 Thinkpad. What more could anyone ask for?
