I for one am very turned off by this whole incident. The wallpaper was ugly, everyone that commented on OMG!Ubuntu! that day agreed... But at least on OMG!Ubuntu! you could feel like you had a voice and people were listening.

Then as people got wind of the hugely negative reaction (developers, canonical, whoever @Vish is), it seemed like we got a very rude pushback by them. I am not a programmer or "geek", but I LOVE Ubuntu. I always thought the point of open source was that you could have constant feedback to the community and everyone would help test, give feedback, report bugs, etc...

Now, Vish, why do you have to be so condescending? You KNOW that nobody really got confused with what "bug" means. I personally came to launchpad and found this because I didn't know where else to go! And honestly, after reading how cold you and others have been in reacting to us "stupid end users" (or whatever you consider us), I am honestly thinking about forgetting about Ubuntu... (you don't care, I know, and that's kind of the point).

Hey, you might have to PAY for Macs or Windows PC's, but at least they don't treat you like shit if you give them feedback! You didn't see Microsoft saying "suck it" when everyone hated Vista.

Guess what, there are more than 2 types of people in the world (GEEKS/NON-GEEKS)... try listening to people when they say they don't like a wallpaper, they are probably designers, artists, etc, and probably have better taste and a better eye for these things!

Anyway, I'll stop before I get too upset thinking about how hypocritical the "Ubuntu Community" is... It's just a bunch of jerk elitist geeks, or at least that is the impression I got from reading this activity log.

FU!UBUNTU!
