Correct me if I'm wrong, but she's thinking about the people who will search
on Google and come across this thread. I get frustrated when I am looking
for a topic on say "FAQ for 64-bit" and I come across a thread that has 50
posts and most of it is just garbage. I have to scan each and every post to
find the exact post that contains what I'm looking for. It would be so much
more helpful to the entire community if we can all be mindful and thoughtful
of what we post. We are not doing ourselves any favors by giving the
appearance to the rest of the world that the Borland Developer Community is
constantly behaving like school-children. We look pretty immature at times.
Let's change. Let's be better than we used to be. Let's be more patient
and understanding. Let's never use the words "you", but instead opt for
"I". Let's carry ourselves with a gracious sense of humility. Let's be a
role model for the rest of the world to admire in awe. I'm in.
