Finally! A small glimmer of light at the end of a dark tunnel. Yes, emailing a dev, give it a shot! Hell, in my first post I even just suggested posting your question on StackOverflow (you do know what stackoverflow is right?), then if it gets answered people can more easily google for assistance.

This new concept of thinking about how you can interact and contribute, awesome! Cultivate that mentality instead of the learned helplessness stuff.

Keep going down the path of communication that isn't just cathartic, useless complaining! You may actually learn something and be useful one day. I hope that this is just your first step down the path of giving freely of yourself, instead of ONLY complaining to yourself in a dark corner. There is no difference to me if you sit in your corner quietly or do what you are doing now, which is sitting in the corner and mumbling to yourself. There is assistance you can provide, the moment you stop being a victim and pitch in is the moment you can start to grow.

I'm not angry, and I don't think you insulted my community. You're just being such a hilariously awful person, and come across like you feel helpless and have nothing to offer, and I feel like I am Mr. Bennet and you are Mr. Collins, I am quite diverted. :-)

Also, if you suck at programming and using tools as much as you seem to indicate, you probably should add "installed phonegap" to your resume. :-D

Also.

Quit deflecting. I clearly distinguished my scope. Also, writing a guide requires 0 installation of anything so your boned with that excuse (though I am sure you have a nearly unlimited supply of excuses, the ignorant entitled usually do).

My sandwich point still stands, do you think the complaining sandwich guy isn't an asshole? By your response you seem to indicate you think he is in the perfectly justified in his complaint.

I never said "YOU SHOULD BE QUITE", in fact I thanked you for it. I said that given the circumstances, and given the way you are complaining, you're being an asshole. If you want to be an asshole that is your prerogative.

My tirade is about your being in a bubble comment? Now I know you aren't reading my posts. Since you didn't read my last post all the way through (hell I even put wrote in a little easter egg to see if you had read it, which you confirmed that you didn't), I am going to stop wasting my time on you, as entertaining as I find you. Also, you can't be bothered to learn the tools you are taking advantage of? Seriously? Are you still in highschool? That's one of the excuses your going to use for mindless complaining? Ok, I get it now, you aren't a coder and don't want to learn. Got it. In your current state you're exactly the kind of person who has nothing to offer, you fail even at simple error reporting. So the community doesn't/wouldn't feel any loss.

You have proven every one of my points better than I ever could. Good day. Dismissed.

Again, you are assuming quite a lot. You're being quite rude.

You're a sad example for our community.

Thanks for dismissing class but I have to say I did not learn much from you, great teacher that you are.

That is such B.S. you come across like you are just nit-picking. Your condescending, primadonna attitude says nothing for your cause, it just makes you look like an idiot.

Let me guess, you are an MS hater and noticed that he posted something about .Net? That he was trying to use phonegap for windows which was a pain (it is BTW a valid complaint, I don't understand either why there was supposedly a build for windows but apparently doesn't work too much)?
