---|---|---|
ikonia | thoughts, don't use it | 18:41 |
blackflow | ikonia: don't use it, or you're not using it so you can't give any thought? | 18:56 |
ikonia | blackflow: my thoughts are to not use this | 19:15 |
blackflow | why not? | 19:16 |
ikonia | looks a bad idea, | 19:25 |
blackflow | ikonia: why? | 19:29 |
blackflow | or are you just giving random, unsubstantiated opinions with zero experience on the subject? | 19:29 |
ikonia | you ask for an opinion, I give you my opinion, and you call it random and unsubstantied | 19:34 |
blackflow | because you gave no opinion. if you think it's bad, please elaborate why. | 19:37 |
ikonia | I did give an opinion, I said my opinion is not to use it, it looks a bad idea | 19:38 |
ikonia | you could have just asked for more information if you wanted | 19:39 |
ikonia | I can't be bothered any more | 19:39 |
blackflow | good idea. | 20:10 |
ikonia | (sorry that wasn't meant to sound as door slamming as it came across) | 20:18 |
blackflow | I'm okay with criticism if it's "it's bad because x, y, z". saying "it's just a bad idea", with no explanation as to why you think that is just... empty words. | 20:26 |
ikonia | thats fine, and you just had to ask for it to be expanded on | 20:27 |
blackflow | Yes, because when people ask for opinions they don't want to hear proper opinons, just empty "it's good" or "it's bad", and jump right on it as a legit answer. | 20:40 |
blackflow | especially when someone says "don't use it", you ask "why" and they don't give an explanation, just another empty "bad idea". Perhaps I should've written a printed letter, kindly asking for your highness' thoughts on the matter, if, perhaps, you'd kindly elaborate on your very thoughtful and descriptive suggestion of "it's bad idea". | 20:43 |
ikonia | blackflow: you'd be surprised how many people want a yes/no answer "is this a good idea" | 20:44 |
ikonia | blackflow: however, I'm aware of your contirbution in the BSD world in the past, so I fully appreciate you'd value a proper discussion on it | 20:44 |
blackflow | not neccessarily a discussion. but at least more than "hurr, bad." | 20:52 |
