[Adium-devl] REMOVE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chris Forsythe]

I'm sorry I'm picking on you Caleb (I'm picking on everyone in  
general here that posted in this manner), and I'm sorry about sending  
this later than I should be, my smtp situation is in flux, however,  
this type of email is probably not acceptable on the list. I  
understand that dealing with users can be frustrating, but there are  
multiple reasons why you should keep this type of thing off the list:

1) Potential future employers can google your name, and might find  
this message offensive if it came up in the search results.

2) Users could interpret this as offensive if they found it.

3) Users could interpret this message as coming from the Adium  
development team itself, and that would cast a bad light upon the  
project when there is not one.

4) It's just not nice in general. Plenty of people who are not  
technically inclined in the computing industry could run circles  
around all of us in other fields.

Anyhow, sorry to bring a downer to the list, just trying to keep it  
real yo.

Chris
