Community fragmentation

Post by copterrichie »

I serious dough if others will see or understand this however from my observation window, there is a serious fragmentation of the community underway. Yes, this is kinda normal for people to part ways because of differences in opinions but there seems to be a force at work here to divide the work being done on this project. We have a subset of people that are upset over various issues and instead of working within the community to change things, they are sitting in their IRC chat room bashing the people that are trying to contribute to this project good or bad.

I said it.

Whats the problem?

There are some people who want to habe more than 8 channels.
And they want to have more than high, middle and low for AUX.

The only think that we hear:
- who needs more than 8 channels
- who need more than 3 steps

We don't want it and so we do not accept any work in this direction.

And than you wonder, that we look for a place where we can talk without any flames (I hope thats the right word)

You think I'm wrong?

Try to read all thread tommie or I start.

Sorry for my english

for the record, Tommy has MANY GREAT Ideas and I am going to build his transmitter but that is not the point. If there are disagreements, then discuss them here within the community and not fragment it bashing others as what is occurring in the IRC chat room that I observed.

Assbuger or Shitbuger ring a bell?

Not sure exactly wtf you're talking about, since I'm in #multiwii on freenode, and there is no bitching going on in there. Only project development.

Now, get off your high horse and go do some work.

Coming from someone whom isn't even in the IRC channel, we shall chalk up your lil rant to, "BS but you have a right to an opinion what every that may be."

IRC is really a great forum, many ideas are discussed while also critiquing other methods with ways we can improve.

Plus, more often than not, it's filled with the objective and optimistic thoughts of timecop (dongs).

I'm another participant of the #multiwii irc channel,..I can tell that a lot of talk about stm32 development is going on,..One of the "milestones" of that discussion was for example the mini stm32 board from abusemark (like stm32 alternative to arduino nano)...A lot of discussion about code is going on, again mostly oriented about stm32, so maybe thats richie's problem that we are not discussing arduinos...But my opinion is that stm32 platform is being "held back" on this forum, so its normal that we discuss that platform more there on that channel...
Of course its not just technical talk on the channel, we gotta have some other fun too, why would we need to be "up-tight"?

So the CLAN had a discussion on the IRC chat room and now here to clear or justify the BS and BASHING that is occurring there? Hmmmm

Man, I don't know where to start.

You're not making much sense here.
It just sounds like you are wearing a GIANT tinfoil hat.

But yeah, the channel is just some big conspiracy to undermine MultiWii and bash everything and everyone good in the world!
What are you smoking? There is no "Clan" or whatever the heck you're talking about...

I was going to ignore you but I won't let you bullshit the good thing we got going there.
Everyone has been invited to come and everyone is welcome there. It's sad that you have to resort to this little backstabbing rampage after actually following said invitation. I dunno what pissed you off so badly but that kind of behavior is just weak, dude...

Clan? What high horse are you sitting on?

It's a IRC channel about the #multiwii flight controller. How is being in there, and not on the forum all the time, a bad thing? As someone who has been in the channel for a while now, and not once seen you join, contribute, or even say a peep, not once... and to have you come on here bashing the IRC for what? Being human beings, having good time while having good conversations about the building multirotors?

How about this.

1.) lighten up a bit
2.) join the irc channel (#multiwii on freenode for anyone interested)
3.) and have a good time w/ us.

Richie, I think this all stems from not having a cool code nickname that we use to refer to hamburger, if it makes you feel any better we have come up with one, which is very close to copterrichie (and its not coptersnitchy, promise).

What does this prove? Besides showing how creepy you are sitting in IRC to gather chat logs, so that you can post stuff on the forum?
