How many other developers engage in name calling, infantile rants and flame anyone who is even mildly critical? Sure Vinnie gets a lot of s**t thrown his way, but only because he asks for it. If he thinks he can flame people without a retaliatory response, he is deteached from reality.

Morgwen was an ardent Bearshare supporter, and Vinnie managed to alienate even him. This, unfortunately, is evidence of an increasingly malevolent Bearshare "culture".

Bearshare contributed a lot to the growth of Gnutella in the past, but Free Peers is now on the verge of becoming a hinderance to Gnutella as a whole. Do you really expect people to tolerate something that threatens the Gnet?
