These forums are not the only way to speak with Fred. Myself and many
others have conversed with him on the PureBasic IRC channel on a daily
basis, and he knows how much we appreciate his work. Take a look at some
of my posts here defending PureBasic and you'll see I am more than 100%
dedicated to the language -- to the point where others have called me such
things as a "Fred brown-noser" and so on. Where is the lack of respect?
Just because you might not see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. A lot of
respect and help goes on behind-the-scenes, and not on these forums.

I wasn't, and you totally misunderstood my analogy. Peace, dude.
