| lostson | I think I have had enough of the ubuntu-users mailing list i think it is time to ditch my sub to it | 22:05 |

| Cheesehead | lostson: Really? | 22:17 |
| Cheesehead | What's in it? I never tried it. | 22:17 |
| * Cheesehead looks up the ubuntu-users mailing list | 22:18 | |
| Cheesehead | Aieeeeeeeee! What a train wreck! | 22:19 |
| Cheesehead | Yeah, just looking at the subject headers for September, I don't want any part of that. | 22:19 |
| Cheesehead | Thanks, lostson, for keeping me away from there. | 22:20 |
| lostson | its moslty about 4 people whining and crying saying that everything above 10.04 is useless and you shouldnt use unity | 22:23 |
| lostson | its just pure crap | 22:23 |
| Cheesehead | Well, they have a valid point. I liked Linux a lot better back in the old days when I had to compile everything uphill both ways in the snow every day. | 22:25 |
| Cheesehead | ...which, of course, explains why I use Ubuntu. | 22:25 |
| lostson | well gentoo is of course still available | 22:25 |
| Cheesehead | Haters gonna hate. And I'm gonna laugh at them quietly in my corner over here. | 22:26 |
| lostson | im all for differences of opinion but that list is out of control and no one is taking care of it or moderating it all | 22:26 |
| lostson | i brought this to jono's attention the other day on G+ but he was more interested in his birthday wish list on amazon than he was responding to anything | 22:27 |
| lostson | i like ubuntu and enjoy unity alot but more and more i am tempted to switch to something else when dealing with the community surrounding ubuntu well except for y'all of course y'all are great | 22:29 |
| Cheesehead | The I'm-gonna-broadcast-every-random-thought people do cause a bit of noise! | 22:35 |
| Cheesehead | Looking over that mialing list, it does seem out of control. | 22:35 |
| * Cheesehead unfumbles his fingers | 22:35 | |
| lostson | yeah its not pretty | 22:36 |
| Cheesehead | Brainstorm was the same way for a long time. I'm pleased that I help bring it back under control | 22:40 |
| Cheesehead | Now it's doing it's original purpose again. | 22:41 |
| Cheesehead | Who is supposed to moderate that mailing list? | 22:42 |
| lostson | no idea would have to look it up | 22:42 |
| Cheesehead | Perhaps they need a leader to step up, take the reins, and steer that runaway back from the cliff | 22:44 |
| lostson | if you dig deep enough you will see this has been brought up a few times and there is never any response | 22:47 |
| lostson | the fedora list got this way then they stepped in and cleaned it up | 22:47 |
| Cheesehead | lostson: Aha. | 23:05 |
| Cheesehead | ubuntu-users list run by mako at ubuntu.com, brian.murray at ubuntu.com, alan at popey.com, lyz at ubuntu.com, mike.basinger at gmail.com | 23:06 |
| Cheesehead | Why not ping them on the topic? | 23:06 |
| Cheesehead | Offer your services as a moderator? | 23:06 |
| lostson | i wonder why none of them do any moderating | 23:07 |
| Cheesehead | Well, I see a lot of them flitting about between many projects, so I suspect time may be and issue | 23:07 |
| lostson | ahh | 23:07 |
| Cheesehead | Old project, slippeded past, perhaps? | 23:07 |
| Cheesehead | I doubt you'll get any of them interested in spending more time moderating - on the planet, they always seem interested in the new | 23:08 |
| Cheesehead | Disclaimer: I have never met them, and so am probablyt quite wrong | 23:08 |
| lostson | yeah but you never know | 23:08 |
| lostson | ding dong my pizza is here bbl | 23:08 |
