All my posts were objective. If you find them trollish then I'd say you're too sensitive about it for some reason. You can say what ever you want about Lisp and I wouldn't be bother, for example.

Objectivity is not a writing style. Foolishness is. You don't really have friends do you ? What a pity :(

Oh please, you're not a bad troll?! Here you did sweeping personal attacks on Perl programmers, based on some down votes: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3159881 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3159881 As I suggested, why don't you go to a discussion on Python, or something, and start writing personal attacks there. Then you'll see down votes... You wrote more than 10% of all comments in that Perl discussion too... Get a life or start writing code for a hobby.

  >Here you did sweeping personal attacks on Perl programmers Again, you're projecting. I said "perl fanboys on this site". That's much less broad but you seem to not realize there is anything else? >start writing personal attacks there Why do you take fair critiques of the language as personal attacks? I think you need to read pg's essay about ID again. >Get a life or start writing code for a hobby. Again with the personal attacks. I have a life and I code for a hobby. That doesn't stop me from correcting fan boys who spread misinformation or distortions of the truth.

    >>Why do you take fair critiques of the language as personal attacks? Serious criticism like your "With things like this I would like to advocate that Perl be treated as politics" -- over a few down votes?! That is fair and balanced criticism, not trolling at all..?! Thanks for a good laugh at your chutzpah. Go away. >>I said "perl fanboys on this site" Not in this discussion or in the comment I linked to. You said: perl fans get seriously emotional about perl and start downvoting things they disagree with (much more so than ordinarily happens). That is a personal attack, without any data, on Perl fans in general. So you flat out lie about what you write, troll.

      >over a few down votes?! That was an observation of mine. Perl fanboys are generally not capable of having a dispassionate discussion about perl's faults. >That is a personal attack, without any data, on Perl fans in general. Fan = Fanboy. It is a programming language. Being a "fan" of a tool is irrational. One should use the tool that works best (for some definition of best) and when that tool is no longer the best one should switch. Being a "fan" means to follow something even when it's not the best (e.g. Dallas Cowboys fan, even when they hadn't won a game in years). This is an utterly irrational stance for a tool. By the way, the person who has been issuing the personal attacks here is you with your "go away" and troll accusations. I hope in time you can learn to be more civil in your discussions.

        I got slammed by pg himself a while ago for being easily trolled, so I'll stop commenting.

        Link? I'd say your ID is too big (pg has an essay on it). If you say Lisp is crap, I'm not going to be offended even though I think it's a great language. It's something I use, it isn't part of who I am.

        Thanks for providing the link. Having seen it, I can't help but say: lol! You took that one sentance to mean pg was upset that you were arguing with trolls? It looks to me like he thought you were trolling! All kinds of other people were still talking to the person you accuse of being a troll but only you got singled out and asked to stop. None of them and not even the alleged troll. And again it was about perl. I think you seriously need to ask yourself why you're so incredibly sensitive about this subject. No one is criticizing you nor your family. Just a tool that has no feelings or emotions.
