He said, fooling and teasing other people is also part of Champs duties. Perhaps, I need to warn all SillyDog701 members.

back to "Sillydog701 is the leading website..." issue (in this very same thread)

Isn't SillyDog701 the leading website in terms of supporting Netscape/Mozilla?
As we can see by Fulvio's first post in this discussion, "leading website in terms of supporting Netscape/Mozilla" is interpreted many different ways.

Do you make any question about the UFAQ.org's wording?

Hi,
What does this have to do with Me thinking that 7.2 will not be released?

Do you make any question about the UFAQ.org's wording? It is misleading and not very professional.

No, but still the unanswered questions that I need to ask ChrisI.

The Netscape Internet Service will work with any browser. It's just an ISP. AOL is simply using the Netscape name (because of name recognition, I suppose) as a way of offering a low-cost alternative to its bloated full-cost service in order to compete with cheaper ISP's, such as NetZero.

I was under the impression that they were including some sort of dialer with Netscape that would bypass Dial-Up Networking with the Netscape Internet Service. That would seem very AOL-like.

I think it's altogether possible that AOL is looking at its rapidly shrinking customer base and slowly starting to realize it needs to change such behavior if it has hopes of competing with other ISP's in the future. Then again, it could just be wishful thinking on my part.

It was a 'tongue in cheek' answer to a silly question. I wouldn't take that question seriously either. Besides, ask any Champ if they've been notified of any such "duty".

Sillydog members know better than to believe that.

So, what's with your hostility toward the Champions? Is it because of the April Fools joke? Ever since April 1st, I've had put out flame after flame from you toward the Champs. I don't recall such hostility from you before then.

I assume you mean "Do you question the UFAQ's wording?"
Yes, of course I do.

No hostility towards the Champions at all.
I appreciate Alice's support, regardless her Mozilla Champion title.
Holger only posts very few here, it would be unfair to make comments.

As for the "About SillyDog701" I added in a few selected posts, the no good relationship with Netscape Champions and/or UFAQ.org, it was merely fact . Please ask Jay, when has Netscape Browser Archive or SillyDog701 even been linked in UFAQ.org ?

As for fooling/teasing SillyDog701 members intentionally and/or maliciously , it is an unacceptable behaviour . Perhaps, a small group of people enjoyed it, but NOT majority of SillyDog701 members.
Those small group of people who enjoyed fooling and/or teasing SillyDog701 members around have hence demeaned themselves.

Maybe it's not intentional.

Best to ask him yourself. Where are the links to UFAQ.org on Sillydog?

There's no need to have hostility towards the Champions.
Why shall SillyDog701 make unfriendly relationship with other websites or people support Netscape?

The link to UFAQ.org was there since early days of Netscape Browser Archive, under the Help section. Also can be seen in a number of other Netscape pages, including Netscape Info Centre and more.

I think I need to re-evaluate the inclusion of links.

It is very clear, unless you really want me to call names.

The relationship between SillyDog701 and { UFAQ.org and Netscape's secnews } has never been good. If you still have copied of newsgroup thread before this year, just go back and dig them out. It is not hard to notice that SillyDog701's Netscape Browser Archive and Netscape Streamline were pretty much ignored.

I do not think that Netscape 7.2 will be released.
