If your post is anything to go by, I think it's the way you give "advice" that stops you looking in the mirror, not your looks.

Try to be kinder when someone says they have learning difficulties. Notice that it was after your post they said they won't be back. Nice one Garry.

it seems that was indeed person's last post.
i wonder if they gave up on debian altogether because of gary ricketson?
that would be unwise.
judge the distro by its development, not by its forum.

If he gave up then it is because it was over his head.

good point, but no he just 'thinks' it's over his head. I did the same thing with my first linux knoppix 4, 'screw this' it's too hard, nothing makes sense... knoppix 4 it's still over my head though.

I'll bet a six pack he'll be back in a month, because linux is just that addictive. And Garry gives good answers IMO, and represents the forum pretty well on a lot of tough questions.

Mimosas do not do well in the Linux bullpen.

He is not giving up on Linux, just became active on Gentoo forums.
