I am new to this field and I joined here to learn more.
I certainly have heard my share of bashing from linux forums.

The more bashing I hear here the less I want to ask a question here.
I'm not stupid but I am worried that one question might spark a rash of flames back at me.

This is a newbies point of view.

I'm at a bit of a loss trying to understand how bashing other lists 
constitutes an improvement on bashing other members of the NANOG list.

I think the point of Matthew's email was that no one really cares for 
the bash fests, regardless of who it targets, be it on list, or off list.

Personally, having joined NANOG a couple of months ago, I've been much 
more taken aback by the amount of off topic griping about each other or 
about whoever decides whatever somewhere, than I have been impressed by 
the amount of useful information to be gleaned from people's posts.

I hadn't ever really planned on joining the post list to be able to send 
something to the list. I'm a little disappointed that my first urge to 
post has come from being tired of off-topic rants more than wanting to 
contribute something useful to the list.

Others responded very arrogantly with the tone of "how stupid you
are for asking that question."
