Kasyx, please can you take the original gaming stuff out of here and post it in a new thread. I think it is very useful - but then we need to sticky the new thread and keep it on topic.
ShockG, I think what you're saying is valuable - but this wasn't the right place for it.
It does seem like the linux section is going to be a honeypot for trolls*. I do think that we have to really make an effort not attack them - either ignore them, or try to help if they have genuine problems.
