tyme Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 competition is good. now, the REAL question is, why they visit that forum and not this one (meaning of course gael and lenard)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Cool! I wouldn't call it competition. Whatever helps ML is all good to me :) We were ask to team up and turned it down which might be why we weren't considered this time....(or were we again?). It's good they're willing to go outside the Club now. Probably to help push 9.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ixthusdan Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Anon or paul could better answer this, but I believe there was an offer to pay some for control of the board. We were seen as "taking money" away from mandrake. (I still do not understand that, since I haven't made a dime answering questions!) They are either wising up, or they are contolling linuxquestions.org. I also seem to recall that criticism is not really welcome at mandrake, which explains why their business progress is so slow! :roll: As you can tell, our mutual love for mandrake does not crumble in light of constructive criticism.

mystified Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 I think what they tried to do was pull us into their Club and even offered to make certain users automatic members. Which of course we turned down. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ixthusdan Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Yes, mysti, I think you're right. Us lower class lower life-forms were considered a nusance! :lol: Well, I still am a nusance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystified Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Check this out http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/ Well we're still here- Mandrake Was anyone aware that the link they have takes them to this page? http://www.mandrakeusers.com/ Shouldn't we have a redirect here? Just thinking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoopy Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 hmmmm, any chance we could lure a celebrity poster here? or ressurrect a guru from the past? Do we need or want one? After all, we got our own talent here plus some very entertaining posters to boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOlson Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Yeah man, maybe we could get Alexander the Great to come post here. That oughtta draw some attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
