Guess ddg customises results based on some criteria. So direct links:Trihexagonal said:The second result you point to is the FreeBSD forums FAQ which explains forum rules, etiquette, and moderation of posts.
The third result you refer to is a Linux forum. Any reason to think they might be biased against any and all things FreeBSD? Phoronix is also associated with Linux reviews, benchmarking and gaming. No bias there either?

Condoned? Usually it is, up to some limit that nobody crosses because when one's getting near, other members give signs of disallowance. And this happens usually w/out any authority stepping in.mix_room said:The rules you mention are basically normal etiquette in any normal conversation. I am quite sure that swearing, insulting coworkers and taking part in illegal activities are not condoned in your work place, school, social club or other place of gathering. The same applies here. You can say what you want, just say it nicely.
Well, I've had both. I left ubuntuforums because the control was too tight. FreeBSD forum is on the edge, though if I knew a good alternative that would offer more freedom, I would leave it for sure.mix_room said:I have never left a forum because it was too tightly controlled, but have seen several which I would not bother reading because of the loose control.
