FC3 sucks. It takes up too much memory!

[Jeramy Ross]

Calling someone a troll is more of an Internet newsgroup culture thing
than Linux centric.  Search through newsgroup postings for the word
troll and you'll see that it lives in a large variety of groups
(Windows centric groups as well).

Does this have anything to do with the Linux culture?  I'm not a
sociologist so I am not in a position to say.  Since I can find it
everywhere from automotive groups to zebra mussel control discussion
groups.. I would have to guess that it is not.

Perhaps the problem (as pointed out by others including Craig) lies
with your subject (the whole "FC3 sucks" bit tends set off attitude
flags) and general perceived attitude in your message.  If you have
questions, seek help, etc. then ask your questions, request help, and
I am pretty sure someone will be more than happy to assist you with
out you needing to say anything sucks or give the general idea that
you're a hot head, have already given up and just using the list to
vent, etc.

Cheers,
Jeramy
