Showing a random passport doesn't show much, except maybe that you ain't
the rightful owner of this passport.
Anyway, in my country we don't use much passport as identification, we
have other means like our health card, driver license, etc.

I wouldn't use my passport to show on a public forum that I'm the person
who I say being.

I didn't even open the URL they gave.  I didn't care what it was, really.

They were accused of using multiple (phony) personas on a mailing list,
and how did they respond?  Not "you're wrong", but "you can't prove it".

To me, that's a tacit ADMISSION of guilt.  As in, "Ha ha, look at how
clever I am, I fooled you all, and I'm getting away with it!"

Well, this is not a court of law.  We do not have to PROVE that someone
has acted with malice.  If you even simply pretend to be a malicious
person, that's more than enough to get yourself ignored.

Earlier, I gave them the benefit of the doubt, and said that there wasn't
enough evidence that they were trolling us.  As it turns out, I was wrong.
That happens.

I didn't understand it this way but now as you describe it this way, it
becomes more clear to my mind.

It's a childish behavior of thinking that because there's no proof then
it means that there won't be consequences. But as you say, we ain't a
court of law.

It's only required that people believe you did something for them to act
like you did it.

You get someone new at the job and for the first time ever, the printer
is jammed and there's a broken Ink cartridge. Everyone knows that this
printer must be handled with care. The new worker say "You can't prove
it's me", no we don't have a picture of you jamming the printer by using
the wrong paper thickness BUT WE HAVE PROBABLE CAUSE it's you. And
probably the boss won't keep you long...

I don't think we are part of the fool here...

Even more as his last message was strangely the most clearly written one
in the whole context of conversation with him.

Giving benefit of doubt is never wrong, it's the proof with have faith
in human.

Indeed. Disseminate an unsubstantiated rumour (as in this thread) and
it's not long before the lynch mob hits the streets.

I would never have blocked "Gunnar" based on an accusation that he
was trolling.

I blocked him after he confessed that he was trolling.

I think that the line that was crossed simply mandate that he gets
ignored by now.
I did so with the last message he sent me yesterday (and posted on the
list). Was a bunch of hard to follow series of sentence. But this
confirm that it seems to be a choice done on having incomprehensible
messages and loose talk, because he did write some clear and well
written message.

I feel that many person cherry pick one message, like the one I wrote
and got out of context, talking about a Lynch mob.

Often when someone ask for help, we'll answer back that there's
information missing so we can answer properly.
Example, the person say
*I can't start X11*
And we'll ask
What version of Debian are you running ?
What are the outputs ? Logs ?
What's your graphic card / GPU ?
etc...

Why do we do so ?
So our answer is relevant.

Same rules apply when giving comment, if you want to have it relevant
then look at the whole story.
Or you'll only get a part and go off track.
And it's exactly what happened here.
We got someone who add a sentence relating to a lynch mob. Where it
wasn't the case in no way. And those are the same person that are unable
to justify what they say, but wanna benefit from free speech to add a point.

*Dider*: There's some similarities between this dude and two others troller.
*Dude*: You have no proof it's me
*Dude*: You have no proof it's me... I post someone's Passport ID page.
*Me*: Posting a passport id page is a criminal offense in most countries
AND doesn't proof much, except maybe that you'd be dumb to post your own.
*Greg* says : That's a for of guilt admission, not saying "I didn't do
it" but saying "No proof".
*Me* : Exactly, it's not a court of law here. So it's not about proof
but about what will people get from what you say.
*and now the best*
*Irrelevant writer* : This is a acting mob looking for a lynch.

I'd start to also call this some strange form of trolling.

Personally blocking people / adding them to your "I'll ignore this person
when I see them" is fine. [The old "Congratulations, you have found your
way into my killfile. *PLONK* - type message.]

Accusing people of trolling is generally not helpful in any way.

I think that this person had difficulties in explaining themselves. That made
it annoying / frustrating to see no progress. We all threw in effort and it
didn't seem to be going very far. I'm not going to speculate whther that
difficulty was accidental / deliberate to wastte our time.

See also why I picked some elements from Greg's list / David's message to
put into the monthly FAQ messsage. It now has a section on how to ask 
good questions and read the answers. Thanks, list, for reminding me and
making me amend the mail.

This has been a particularly frustrating thread and hard to follow in

It's not straightforward to make this a useful list where people feel
welcome and able to raise issues. At the risk of sounding very "pink and 
fluffy": many of the people who appear here are not familiar with mailing
lists at all. We need to look at everyone "with kind eyes" to some extent
unless they are abruptly hostile and to give people the benefit of the 
doubt. 

One way to deal with people being difficult is to report the issue to 
the Community Team. Full disclosure: I'm part of the Community Team
as is Steve Mcintyre who pops up here occasionally. The team will 
normally talk it over, decide what action to take and carry it out.
That can be just an email off list to the person being difficult,
a recommendation to block someone to go to the listmasters - anything
seen as appropriate. 

Another way - which is quicker and easier in some ways - is to choose to 
ignore them for the sake of your own peace of mind. Not every post has
to be replied to. Not everything demands a response about the character
of the poster: even if it does, waiting a couple of hours to reply may
always be a good idea. Others may post in the meantime and you may find
that you no longer lead to post.

All the very best to all, as ever,

I've worked at tech support for many years, mostly on the 2nd level,
that is doing follow up on problems reported by agent on the phone.

And even if we selected agent with good educational background, it
didn't do the job and we had questions that missed the most basic
information to be answered, people saying what they expect and not what
they tried or what they use, etc.

This is something hard to get for many. And this not only apply to our
lists here, most of us know what we don't want but have problem saying
what we'd like.

I always try to give explanation to others when their question seem hard
to follow, or simply to use a good descriptive subject.

This doesn't seem to be appreciated by some. Strangely, most of the
time, the original poster will say thanks at one moment, the complaints
seem to come from others who'd prefer only to ignore.

Thanks for you work.
I've reported to Google (probably useless) the user who posted a
Passport on a Google Drive link.

Given that it is a user's right to control the mail he wants to
receive, I have always found it it strange when a blocking is
announced to the world.

It is hardly assuming good faith. Just do not reply.

Speculating on people's motives in public is fraught at the best of
times. On this list "Assume good faith" is a guiding principle so
you wouldn't do it anyway.

I found its general thrust easy to follow. User-criticism par
excellance.

I totally agree. And I'm a bit horrified by the hostility shown
towards the OP by some.

There wasn't any hostility shown to the OP of this thread. He was
collateral damage. You can thank didier gaumet and his baseless
accusation for that.

Apology, I hear you ask? Don't hold your breath.

The debian-user mailing list is a joke. I don't want to say its main
users are people looking for an e-peen ego boost, but there are quite a
few arrogant and self-righteous individuals that make almost any civil
discussion turn hostile.  It's amusing to watch as much as it is sad.

You would expect some conflict in such a big community.
Nevertheless, what you're doing here doesn't help in any
way, I fear.

Perhaps you don't care, but then... why are you here at
all?

Your post is, in some tragic way, self-referential. Not
that I think you have any bad intentions, mind you. But
it makes me sad.

Sure, I don't disagree with you that my email doesn't contribute to the
problem. However, I rarely post on this mailing list and mostly just
read it. There are others who contribute far more on a daily basis to
the problem that you fear than I have contributed in all my tenure on
this mailing list.

That doesn't justify my original message, but there are far greater
problems than the act of satirically pointing out the problem.

Looking back, that sounds too harsh and is definitely stated in
a negative way...

... so let me try to improve on that: any ideas on how to make the
situation better?
