I neither asked for nor need your help, and I certainly don't care about your opinion. If you want to babysit and spoon-feed people, go right ahead....you've not helped anyone with anything yet. Why don't you try leading by example, rather than whining?

As stated: Either help people or go elsewhere...I HAVE and AM helping folks. You have not, at this point, done ANYTHING to do so for anyone except yourself. I'm letting the moderators deal with you from now on.

I am leading. Have you seen anyone else from Venezuela in this forum? There is only one learning center for open software in Caracas, with only two professors, and there are few students enrolled. I completed basic MySql and PHP courses last week and tomorrow I'll start my Apache course. It will be the first course I take that I won't feel lost as I already succeeded configuring my sites on basic Apache. Many of my friends have websites and no suitable place to host them. Over time I will be able to help them.

I believe I have already helped you, just as you helped me understand why ports are closed even if configured open. This last answer reply is more moderate and I extend to you my sincerest and encouraging congratulations. It is important not to judge people right from the start. Assertive, non-confrontational communication skills are valued in internet fora claiming to be helpful. Let's make sure beginner members feel at home at linuxquestions.org. Otherwise this website would deteriorate into an exclusive senior member country club.

Many..I have noticed at least a dozen over the years, thanks. You are not special, not a 'trail blazer', nor a beacon of hope. You are some idiot spammer.
Congratulations, take as many courses as you want. Most people learn by reading the AMPLE documentation, installing the FREE software, and learning on their own.
I doubt that. YOU had a website hosted elsewhere...and the THOUSANDS of easily-found hosting sites on the Internet are available to them.
You are as egotistical as your are deluded. You have not helped ANYONE, and I doubt you ever will. You are STILL convinced that your spamming is a good thing, and that all 20k+ of your 'friends' want to get your spam emails.
And let's make it much better by you leaving, and going elsewhere. You're a spammer....you're deluded, and can't follow basic reasoning. Your ports weren't 'closed'....they were just sitting there, and you could have read any one of the THOUSANDS of easily-found documents, tried things, done SOMETHING, but you didn't...you wanted to be spoon-fed an answer, to assist you with your spamming.

Go elsewhere.

I actually read in the forum documentation that usernames are never erased. I will be here forever and will continue getting and providing help from and to other users. I advice you to help NM04 solve his linux trouble, this is his post. We are supposed to be trying to help him. And you are an uncompassionate teacher.

I actually installed Sympa last week and am helping other people installing it in their French website. It has a bug and we are waiting for programmers to fix it.

Until you're banned for your behavior.
And I 'advice you' to actually help as well. NOTHING you have posted in this thread has been constructive towards those ends. And since you're a bit dim, people can only be taught when they participate.
Of *COURSE* you did...that's why you've been asking in multiple other forums about how to get it working, right???

yeah....

Same with you. All you do in this forum is to humiliate beginner users. Please learn about being more humble. I am actually teaching you and helping you be a more compassionate teacher.

The sympa topic in this forum has not been used for many days. I'm communicating directly with their support venues.

Again, you are not teaching anyone, anything. If you want to help folks, start doing it. You've not and still aren't. And you can please learn more about paying attention.
Of *COURSE* you are....you're a beacon of hope, right???? The *ONLY PERSON* in your whole, entire country that knows ANYTHING about Linux, right???? Grow up....first you said you got it installed and are 'helping others in French website', now it's not installed because of a bug, and ONLY YOU have contacted the programmers.

Grow up.

@rroopstr and @TB0ne, at this point you seem to be seeking each other out and dragging threads off topic which is not something acceptable here at LQ. Future off-topic posts will not be tolerated. Remember that LQ has an "ignore member" function that both of you may want to utilize in this case.

I don't mean to argue, but I am NOT seeking him out....he came to this thread and purposely posted off-topic, and I have asked him repeatedly to stop, and to keep the thread on topic. He only posted here after his previous spamming thread got closed

I dont mean to revive a old thread, but I must agree with rroopstr a 100 percent.

this user TB0ne , looking at all his past posts , I would say a LOT of them are monotonous.

All he does is ask counter-questions in kind of attacking fashion , rather than helping out technically or politely, just because he gets to strut around with the so called "LQ Guru" title and frankly I would say he's not worth even 1/4th of it.

This is a forum where people come for help , some are new, some across different language and cultural barriers and its obvious people are going run into some kind of problems.
If everybody knew to ask proper questions and learn from man pages there would be probably no need to have a technical help forum. There is always a better and humble way to communicate in simple words to help.

To be honest, all this indirect bitching in the name of freedom of speech is highly annoying and derogatory for forums. people ought to have some manners first.

pingu_penguin, Please don't revive old threads with off-topic posts in the future.
