Me becoming a member within a year was a lucky streak. i thanked everyone for helping me with that.

I've been a part of the community for about a year and a half now, and I've seen it go from "Ubuntu membership = gold medal at the end of the campaign" to "its bootcamp".
daslinkard

@jokerdino You appear to have your very own stalker.
daslinkard
daslinkard
The one thing that I see is that it takes a combination of things....from participation....to helping others....to being very involved....
@Oli not a stalker at all...just read his story and wanted to express my feelings to him.
jokerdino
jokerdino
@jrg i wonder what that means ;P
@daslinkard people using Ubuntu are friendly, that's what I learnt.
daslinkard
daslinkard
@Oli If you want I can get my sister to stalk you? If that will make you feel not left out
jokerdino
jokerdino
@Oli thanks, i appreciate that you raised the matter.
Oli
Oli
@daslinkard I'm only joking! If anyone's the stalker, it's me. I have a disturbing ability to pick up people's personal information from a few searches.

@Oli through good ole skip tracing...amazing how people leave too much info on the net, eh?

Oli
For example, last year you tried Mint.
jokerdino

@daslinkard if you are interested, i can help you get somewhere in the community
daslinkard

Very true Oli....have you ever tried pipl.com?

@jokerdino sweet...what advice or suggestions do you have for me? When you get a chance can you check out what I have done (answering) in askubuntu or even the ubuntuforums and give me feedback....?
jokerdino
jokerdino
From normality to confusion. I wonder how different it is going to be.
@daslinkard Put my feedback aside. You should reflect on yourself.
but, i will give feedback, eventually. :)
daslinkard
daslinkard

before Mr Daslinkard started the bandwagon, I thought of listing all the things I learnt. Now I think, may be it's not necessary.

RSS reminds me of the editorial i was writing about GNOME
I lost 1/8 of the vertical space to the top panel, title bar, menu bar and the various tabs.
Mahesh
Mahesh
precisely the reason i dont use gnome
jokerdino
jokerdino
i am using gnome as long as possible. it makes me appreciate Unity when I return back to it.
oh yeah, @JorgeCastro, @AmithKK killed his motherboard and won't possibly do the open week for Ask Ubuntu.
