1001 flame wars, ey? Nice to know I helped initiate one or two! ) Wed, 13 Aug 2003 22:34:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? 133,118 comments

Anybody know how many of those were posted by Eugenia? Wed, 13 Aug 2003 22:38:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? The whole time I have been reading this site and its forums (admittedly only for around seven or eight months) I have seen what I considered to be MANY MANY flamewars, usually regarding SCO and Mac articles (and everyone probably knows the awesome trolls that frequent those stories).

But I am curious, what does it take to be officially considered a flamewar?

A certain number of moderated down comments?
A certain number of posts?
A certain number of posts going back and forth between specific individuals?

With all that being said, I still enjoy reading these forums and the site a lot and think OSNews is an entertaining website and think Eugenia does a good job (even though I felt she was a little unprofessional on the thread about paying for an advert-less website when someone dissed her HTML coding, hopefully this comment won't start another flamewar ).

Anyway, just curious about the specific qualifications for a flamewar? (whew that was long) Wed, 13 Aug 2003 22:40:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread?

I think that would become a problem when replying to different posts though.

To be honest i have no clue how i came to this site but im glad that i did because it's one of the sites i visit everyday. Sometimes this site has articles up before slashdot does.

I love how i can read up on whats happening on the major os's all on this one page. I can read up on a microsoft security flaw then go to a "Sco vs IBM" article and read up on how good apple is doing. This site is really unique. Thanks for everything!

Thu, 14 Aug 2003 01:27:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? There is nothing wrong w/ the forums here. I actually prefer the one here to the cookie-cutter one you linked to. There is just something about those style boards that I don't like. I know its made by a third party, but for goodness sakes, at least change the graphics and colors so it doesn't look like every other board on the web.

The only beef I have w/ the forum here is that there is no nesting of comments, but its not really big enough to justify that.

OSNews ROCKS! I have a tab open for it almost 100% of the time. The variety in articles is awesome, and they keep getting better.

Thu, 14 Aug 2003 13:19:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? I think that the fact you have 81 posts in this thread without any moderated ones says something about the overall opinion of this site.

Despite disgreements and differing opinions, OSnews and it's readers are a great community. Although I'm sure disagreements & debates will continue, the fact that OSNews is still here reporting on the subjects we love and readers are still returning again and again, pretty much sums this site up as a winner.

Never I reacon... Thu, 14 Aug 2003 15:25:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? This is a gret site with a lot of interesting information on different computer related subjects.

Most of this can be directly attributed to Eugenia's (unpaid) hard work.


Thanks :-)

...also for posting my articles ;-) Thu, 14 Aug 2003 15:52:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? Happy Birthday OSnews. Hope you are around for many years to come to bring us the information we love to read. Its my home page and I wake up everyday to start my browser to see what is new. I would say the content is good, not to one sided and gives the articles that are important. If I want to hear about SCO I would go to Linux.org to get that info because they have a new one almost every day on them.

I would like to hear about the 2.6 kernal though, I don't know how that is going. Thu, 14 Aug 2003 16:37:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? Congratulations, happy birthday, and a long life to you. I've been following the OSnews since, I believe, late '00. But I can't remember. This is one of the greatest sites on the Internet! Keep up the good work!

Great site. Cheers. Thu, 14 Aug 2003 16:40:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? Eugenia, are _you_ the new backend? :-> Thu, 14 Aug 2003 16:43:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? Congrats!

Is each occurence of Mike Bouma "moderating down" a comment that doesn't express agreement with what he/Amiga Inc. says included in the 1001 flamewars? The ones that don't violate OSNews forum terms and that he incorrectly calls "trolls".

That'd leave, oh, about 1 *real* flamewar. ;-) Thu, 14 Aug 2003 18:19:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? No moderation ala /. - to hide troll comments - and still there aren't many troll comments.
Congrats Thu, 14 Aug 2003 18:41:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? As a long time lurker y morning coffee wouldn't be the same without the osnews (especially the flamewars)

see ya tomorrow...i love osnews!!!! Fri, 15 Aug 2003 02:51:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (Anonymous) Comments http://www.osnews.com/thread? http://www.osnews.com/thread? After having too many realistic comments about Microsoft moderated down, I am hopeful this next year will bring more fairness and realism to OSNews.

Witness the recent editorial on the Inqwell regarding Microsoft announcements vs. objective progress --

The world knows what OSNews is afraid to print.

For the 2003-2004 Flamewar Season, let us hope that Team Freedom does better on OSNews than it did last season.
