Thanks codinghorror, for all you do for the SDMB!

I know you mean well, but this type of post doesn’t seem wise to me, at all.

Sure, by all means, point out the changes he has made. If that was all you did, I wouldn’t object. But you’re fawning all over him, acting like he’s not got any flaws.

This thread now is essentially begging for someone to come in and give counterexamples. I’m having to bite my tongue so hard at this point, because I know those would help even less. (Heck, I’m posting this to hopefully stop people from posting such.)

I will say this much: I stand by my argument in the other thread about why talking to him can be quite frustrating. I thus understand people like the person in your first quote being frustrated with him.

And I do not think a thread like this helps with that frustration.
