Same, it's disturbing:

* OP: "If a distro with 60k packages cannot accommodate one or three extra packages for an official flavor, then someone is an idiot, and that idiot is not me."

* Moderator came and ask to not talk like this.

* OP: "Censorship, simply because I used the word “idiot” without naming anyone in particular!", and OP continue.

* Moderator close the tread.

* OP: "Then the little Stalin closed my thread".

This is not serious. OP doesn't named anyone but hide himself with a general attack to package maintainer (maybe this maintainer is alone). Hiding its attitude behind word meaning is something my 9 years old son is starting to do and I try to explain him its not a valid excuse.

OP should revise it's social expectations.

It's hard enough to keep big open source projects on rails without having childish attitude like this.

I'm anti censorship and post ideas controversial enough to get banned from here pretty often but personal attacks are just stupid. There's no reason for that.
