kubuntuforums.net on an official canonical server

[ktech]

Ubuntuforums was actually itself first owned by an individual who later transferred the ownership to canonical. Why can't the same be done for this forum; currently it actually runs on a Win 2003 server and that's not correct for a linux forum!

Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm .... did Canonical volunteer to operate it? Are YOU volunteering to operate it on a Linux server? What I mean is, I'd like Canonical to wash my car and take out my garbage every Wednesday too, but I don't think voting for that is going to make it happen.

OS has been doing a great job for us, and he didn't happen to find a hosting service that guaranteed a Linux server. Too bad -- I wish it were, but it's not important enough to dump the present arrangement, in my humble opinion.

kubuntuforums.net on an official canonical server

Hmm - what value would that give to us ?

Now > Kubuntu.org >> Community and Support:

Forums

* Kubuntu Forums is your help on the web for Kubuntu.
* Ubuntu Forums also has some Kubuntu areas.
* Kubuntu Way Forums is another forum on the web for Kubuntu support.

Why i'm using this forum and not the (Canonized ) Ubuntu Forums ( earlier > Topic: Ubuntu forums vs kubuntuforums):

+ This is Kubuntu/KDE centric
+ Freedom of speech ( > Topic: Forbidden Topics ?).
+ Here the moderators are friendly persons.

I agree with Dibl and Rog.

Meh.

I'm a n00b here myself but I kinda like smallish forums anyway.

Ubuntu forums is a zoo. You know what I'm talking about if you've ever tried to (1) get help there, or (2) serve as a helper there. A lot of good work gets done @ubuntu, some of the best Linux people around, but to know that you first must dig through the 80% nonsense/noise/bull**** over there. The way the kubuntuforums looks, feels, and runs is a prime reason most of us are here. What is it with posters here who keep posting all this nonsense about how we should be like them?
