Revise your logic. "Banshee community, which you seem to be addressing". You're not addressing yourself are you? By my logic, you're excluded from "we" in this context. > > > Chow Loong Jin wrote: > > > > Find my insults and quote them, go on. > > > "spiteful", "childish", "throwing tantrums"...

Granted, your first few posts didn't really show any form of rudeness. However, you were making a big fuss about the video portion being there, saying that Banshee was made as a music library manager, and not a media library manager, and how it should stay that way, even though the video specific features did not add much (if any) bloat to Banshee itself. You also did not state how exactly this bothered you in your experience of using Banshee, even though it was asked. > > Chow Loong Jin wrote: > > > > And by the way, I wasn't the one who mentioned that you were showing > > aggressive behaviour. > > > Yeah, many do without explaining it.

But what I can say is that while reading it, I did feel pretty irritated, and that could probably be attributed to the general tone of most of your previous posts. If I were to stick a word to it, I'd say arrogance. But that's just my opinion. > > Chow Loong Jin wrote: > > > > from people who are not obliged to reply. > > > So don't!

If you had considered the people you were addressing, you'd have saved even more time. Had you given any consideration at all, you'd realize that the first reply would be "Why?" as opposed to a straight answer to your question. > > Chow Loong Jin wrote: > > > > Well, considering I can agree with them and you can't, just shows that > > the problem's on your side. > > > Again: revise your logic. > I'd ask you to do the same, considering you didn't even show me what's wrong with my logic. > Anyone wanting to explain exactly how did I offend this community, please? > As I said, I'm ready to apologize if I'm pointed how and where I was rude. > But since that could take us into a whirl of what each considers offensive > or not (including my fellow compatriot) let me advance that saying a > particular design is bad or defining the addition of video to Banshee as > "bloat and clutter" can be considered somewhat "non-constructive" criticism, > but that's a looong way from bad manners in my book and I won't apologize > for that because I do think it and I sustain that opinion. > > Regards, > > CM Granted, you were criticizing Banshee in a non-constructive way, but to those who look at Banshee as a wonderful piece of software, and even more so, the developers, such non-constructive criticism can be viewed as offensive. Bad manners refers to the air of superiority and arrogance you maintained in some of your posts, specifically your post on this date: Mon, 17 Nov 2008 00:56:48 -0800 (PST). Now, as I had said above that I'd make this my last post, I rest my case. Have a nice day everyone. -- Chow Loong Jin
