Sasquatch,
I've been reading forums looking for help and your obnoxious, and at times, derogatory comments really does reflect badly on both the product and the company you now represent. This is not a 'dude' community, people using commercial products (read: Oracle/Solaris) come here looking for help. Strap in, I just dropped a complaint email to Oracle.

Just to give you the type of comments your 'help' gets outside of this forum:

http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-F ... 3021.shtml

"... and that grumpy-ass Sasquatch just bitches at people with questions and occasionally gives an inadequate answer. They would do well to answer noobs questions with complete info and patience rather than pointing them back to FAQs and the manual..."

if you delete this thread, the screenshot of it will be forwarded to Oracle as well.

You might know the product, but your customer skill is zero, perhaps you'd do better job typing docs...

In addition to being worthless drivel, your comments are also off topic here. "Using VirtualBox" is about problems people are having (er..) using VirtualBox. Bitchy remarks about some other person on the site does not qualify.

There is a feature here called Private Message that you can use for this. No need to put this in the wide public if you have a problem with a user here. But fine, I'll bite.

The biggest problem with new users here is that they refuse to read the rules, make adequate opening posts with information that is helpful for us to help them. There is even a warning when you click the Post Reply button which states to read the Forum Posting Guide first. Once a user gets to a certain amount of posts, that warning will disappear.
As long as a user follows the rules and gives proper information about the problem they have, there is no reason for me to point him/her to them and will help said user to the best of my knowledge.

Topics that disappear are not always my doing. The other moderators here can do the same and I don't have anything to do with their decision, much as they don't with mine. We have a mutual agreement that we all act on what we think is best. This means that one may doubt about locking a topic or removing it, while another will just do it.

Are you so sure that my customer skill is zero? It seems you have even less than that by posting this in public. Or you want to scare me with it by posting this as a threat. Go right ahead, you can post threats as much as you want, I'm not afraid of them. Worst thing is that I'll be forced to leave this forum, which is just a volunteer job anyway. My knowledge is quite needed here, and I'm afraid that this forum will go down hill when I'm not around. Sure, there are others that can take my place, but I've yet to see them, other than the current moderators and volunteers. They have their limits too, just like I have.

I've taken the liberty of removing some of your posts that are entirely off-topic to where you posted them and are only meant to attack me. Please don't do that, or more serious actions have to be taken. I don't like to go that way.

Exactly, enough said, if the poster has a problem outside the scope of this forum then there are plently of other ways to file a complaint and ways to handle those, this forum is not the place for either, locked.
