in thread NodeReaper is quite unruly...

Alright by me ;-).

Just this last question if you wouldn't mind... Who's responsible for putting together comments on reaped nodes? Here's what (if I'm correct) I got in responce to my post on arrays.

Am I right to assume that 'Fastolfe' is responsible for the reply? If yes, then why being so rude and inflamatory? Seems like in this old good saying: "A rat must have crawled up his ass and died...".. Geez... I couldn't even imagine the kind of 'hospitality' i'd come to experience on this site. There are numerous decent monks and only a few that spoil the place =/.

I have nothing against pointing out and removing worthless nodes; however, this should be accomplished in a way befitting a reasonable adult. The comment I got from node reaper is such that I could find on www.fuckedcompany.com or a message board ran by a bunch of 10 year old kiddies.

    Fastolfe was responsible for suggesting that the reply to your node should be reaped. His comments are not in response to your post. Instead, they are directed at the original contents of the reply, which you can read here

    I suspect that you received a private message from root informing you that someone had replied to your post. Before you had the opportunity to read the original reply, it was reaped, and was replaced by Fastolfe's comments. My colleague can speak for himself, but I see no reason to believe his crack about "slashdot kiddies" was directed at you.

    It's stunningly less than obvious how this all works, so I will merely say that your assumption is incorrect. Hopefully things make more sense now.

      Thank you ;-). It did make sense once I had read through the help pages.
