HUH?

Is this the same linux channel that's been known to tell people off and
kick them out for asking questions?
Where an OP nuked me while I was downloading linux?
Where users have been told that linux sucks just so people won't come
back?
It seems to me that that channel has sone more harm to the cause then
good, now you want to promote it?

Grow up.
