I'm kind of disturbed that you feel that way. I'd like to assure you that, with the exception of one person, virtually every deleted post fit this pattern. (The exception being EUWX's hijacking of ARM-related threads with kernel-related nonsense, which didn't always meet the "personal attack" standard.)

I was only bothered by it because I wasn't seeing the deleted posts (which is the point of deleting them). I've been reading the forum for years (since it was hosted as a listserv, what, 1998 or so?) but I was unaware that Kat sometimes posted material that was as inflammatory as the examples you posted. Stuff like that has no place in a forum on programming.

So because I wasn't seeing the whole story, I thought I was seeing some justification for some of her complaints. Maybe it's because I don't do IRC that I've missed even more context.

Thank you for answering my concerns.
