Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

This third page of the thread on Puppy or DSL could lead us to a possible explanation:

http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=18256&start=30

I remember that someone posted an ad just after the first post (on that third page) by disciple. Then alienjeff put up a third post cautioning the reader about the said ad.

Now both second and third posts have disappeared. A new post there by stevesr0 has appeared.

Note, too, that John's post (please check the links above) mentions that Gn2 was the first person banned in this forum. That leaves Marksouth as an active member. You can check Mark's posts through this search.

EDIT: He had a funny statement there:

Nathan has replied to some of the points that Mark has made

I was a bit shocked to see Puppy so roughly handled on distrowatch. It was a bit vague as to the actual problems, jumping from early version hardware snafus to what mostly seemed like purely forum issues. Someone just browsing the article might not make the right distinctions, so it seems kinda vindictive.

However... you've prob'ly noticed that the mature distros get beaten up plenty on distrowatch. So I guess in a way you guys have arrived.

Murga and his rogue moderator now reap what they've sown.

I really think anyone who reads this will see it is transparent! IMHO there
are just two kind of fourm users those who want to help and those who want to be heard
The sad but true fact is as more ppl learn that puppy is a good thing
more and more detractors will appear I've been here 2 years
and Loving it! and think whomever is running this forum is on top of
there game most don't make it that long


BTW: What censor issue I see aj can still post discent
Ps:was not thomas hooker taft's grandfather taft the most currupt prez before this one

I found this idea on Distrowatch (I can post there again incidentallly) Thanks Borat. Have I been reinstated for bad behaviour? Was I never actually banned? A computer glitch? I was often an early comment poster. Complaints from the fish? Frankly I have no idea.

I mean I do have an idea - from someone else . . .

"I prefer community based modding and patrolling. If a post is abusive or mislabeled, the community can flag it for deletion or editing."

Can this be applied to this forum? I would love to see this. It would make us all responsible for moderating and ensure that removing spam would be more a community effort . . .

Good luck John on the housing situation, okie? I don't know how you handle that one mate as that's always been one of my life's biggest worries---lack of a roof over my head (and my family's as well naturally).

Please keep us posted John! Many of us DO care where you rest your head for the night and where your next meal's coming from. Push comes to shove? If you ever find yourself homeless in the northeast of the USA drop me a priv. msg. via the forum. You won't be for long.

Only caveat is that you keep your hands off my computer.

Best of luck John. I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers as I'm sure many others will be as well. And likewise: Thanks for the forum!
