Look, I'll spell it out more directly since we seem to be, as the cop said in "Cool Hand Luke", failing to communicate: Don't use EFNET and don't come crying to us when any temporary lapse of sanity should lead you to do so. Your comments about Linux being kinder and gentler in that respect are the purest bovine exhaust as I've already illustrated. EFNET in general is a cesspool and probably shouldn't be mentioned in the Handbook, in fact, I'll take that mention right out. If you want a kinder, gentler IRC then go use irc.freebsd.org, as we also point to in a few places. There's hardly anyone there, unfortunately, since providing voluntary tech support is a thankless job which people seem to regard as a god-given right, and they chased off most of the early volunteers who tried to do so on irc.freebsd.org. There may, nonetheless, be a couple left. Heck, if you're feeling inclined to spend even a tenth of the energy you've seen fit to waste on this thread so far, you might hang out for awhile and answer someone else's questions. I have it on good authority that this is how the interactive self-help process starts. Good luck, have fun, etc. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
