Seems there's a new kind of human-powered Spambot

Quite ridiculous, if in 10 posts there is four times "O-O cool" and six times "check out my_distro!" or "will put it on my_distro" or "coming soon at my_distro"... especially since all the added scripts are "found on the interwebz".

A big turn-off, this is like pushing advertisements down the forum visitors throat.

Trolol: "My GNU/Linux usage over the last 15 years has resulted in my own 'distrolette' dwmX...maybe not for you at this time... but the learning curve is actually quite shallow."

15 years already, so that's 1999. Softlanding Linux System, huh? :D

Edit: oh fuck, I think I know this guy...

So, I've been using Linix for the last 30 years, and all of that metaphysical knowledge has been distilled into the most brilliant KDE 4 for Netbooks. It haz a new init and is ribbed for her pleasure. Many of the the scripts and kernel and iso can be found on the net.

Hmmm 15 years... that means that I still got ca 5 years before I have to release some lame crap. Better start thinking of a cool name, and ditto logo. :D

^ Hahaha, no! Quite the opposite: he's fucking serious about it. And he is definitely not one of us. But the troll level is over 9000, so it seems.
