You have been warned several times in the past to be constructive. No need to start something with sarcasm & criticism either since you seem to lack the understanding when you post in this manner things happen. Enough said! EDIT: After PM discussion and clarifications, the moderation was in error. So my apologies to Mercury305 for misunderstanding. |

Distrowatch is ..., Well, Distrowatch ;)
Seriously, we all know that these statistics should be taken with a (big) piece of salt. This is not new and has been discussed many times, including in Distrowatch itself. Furthermore: 1) When people see a distribution mentioned in a news article in Distrowatch, out of curiosity some click on the link to that distribution and its rank increases. 2) This is specially true when a new version has just been released. By the way, Distrowatch is used to publish a news article about any new *release* even those they tag "development" ones. So maybe that's my fault, as my previous post in this thread was useless. :confused: @Mercury305 (out of topic) did you get this issue sorted out? |
Its understandable to misunderstand what I wrote. Especially coming from my finger tips.
But what I meant to say that since it has been a while that Slackware has come with a new release. The way it jumped up in charts should show the enthusiasm of its users. |

Some people, especially the younger generation type 'lol' after everything. It's sort of like a nervous tick or something. It used to bother me a lot, especially with text messages.

I been following the conversations on here recently and Mercury305 seems to have ruffled some features at the beginning, but I don't think he was being a troll and have noticed an improvement to the posts, especially after Patrick came in and explained some stuff better to him. Obligatory "let's cut him so slack :D" quote. |

I should add backtrack and fedora in my list as well. But as you can seee Slackware is number 1: <--------------- because I like the command line so much :) Slackware makes me think... I like to use my brain. |
