Topic: Git Workflow Question: Getting Ready for a Pull Request
Post: post 8852045
Reason: Gentoo Chat style replay

Seems to be a perfectly legitimate user to me. What's the objection? Where do you think it's replayed from? — JRG



Replay = response = post = comment. Not a replica of something. This post does not add any value, does not address the question, instead lectures on how bad it is based on assumptions and what's worse - it sounds like an amateur just found out about breakpoints and rushes to show everybody what he found and how professional that is, being blissfully unaware this it's what amateurs almost immediately pick up and cling to it to assist them where they need to put thought instead. Very arrogant.

Oh. You meant, "reply." I misunderstood. No real argument with you there. I'll let another moderator chime in as to whether it's enough off-topic to merit action, though. Thanks for the report all the same.

Thanks for the remark, not a native speaker here.

Best Regards,

It seems like this is a personal attack. I kindly request the moderators to address this behavior.

Then I'll jump in.

I assume that every user has good intentions (until proven otherwise). I wouldn't give a programmer with over 10,000 posts in this forum for 20 years a general recommendation about programming, but I don't see anything off-topic if this post is in the “Portage & Programming” forum.

I also note when a user has attracted unpleasant attention and realize that this is NOT the case with @spica. On the contrary, I remember that he sent me a helpful link.

On the other hand, I would not see that it is a personal attack. @logrusx has been very active and helpful for several years and sometimes takes things even more seriously than necessary.

If you two need to clarify this in more detail please do so via PN.

Both, logrusx and spica, expressed their views on the topic an the methods they'd use.
There wasn't particularly nothing too wrong or I'll intent on the topic.

However on this report topic things are now heated. I hope both of you accept that you have different views of the matter.
There's no need for finger pointing.
