The [H]omer award for COLA Advocate of the Week:
Linonut <linonut@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
(On not forgetting the raison d'être for GNU/Linux)
.----
| In any case I tend to agree with Stallman that if a company wants
| to fuck with you, work around it or do without. GNU/Linux started
| without any corporate ties, and now look at what a political
| football it has become.

[1]: Posts via mail to news gateways are dropped by this server
and hence not included in the stats.
Other attention seeking posters may not appear as well.
[2]: Troll feeder %'age is (troll feeding posts / total posts) * 100
[3]: The poster 'quality' stats is based on:
a) quoting: 100 - %'age quoted
b) cross-posting: 100 - %'age cross-posted
c) number of direct followups posters articles get
d) troll feeding: 100 - 2.0 * %'age troll followups
e) 75 deducted for known trolls
f) for the humour impaired the quotes around 'quality'
are intended to convey they are not to be taken too
seriously :-)
