See. This is what will happen to you on the D forums too, when you say anything negative about D (that the D community disagree with).

A comment like this would not raise the attention of D moderators though.

So who's the real sockpuppter, troll, narcisist, that makes all the post like these (that you'll see all over the D forums, in response to anyone that says negative things about D).

sorry, but there are countless examples, where well known members of the community harassed non-members, because they said something negative about d.

but the only ones that are considered to be harassers, or subject to moderation, are the non-members.

In addition, there is no visibility into does the moderation, how long it might take, what would be filtered, and for what reason.

Therefore the forum's use of moderation is at best, suspicious, and can easily become a tool for abuse.

There should be a record of who filters what, when, and why.

And this should be made public also (although people should not be forced to subscribe to them).

In any case, people are better of spending their time on stuff that is actually supported, and can get them employment.

This is just more propaganda from Mr so called 'Bright'.

Sure some things in D are 'interesting', but it's also a very, very complex beast, full of bugs (some known, and heaps more not-known).

btw. Do not participate on the D forums either, it's just a propoganda tool for the D Foundation (i.e. they filter (or moderate as they like to call it), anything that says anything negative about d.

In the end, if D has anything interesting, that we can't live without, we can just take it and integrate it one or the many 'proper' programming languages.

Don't waste your time with d. You'll only ever end up wishing you had spent that time on a proper language, that has a well supported ecosphere.
