Given that 90% of Yahoo answers are pure garbage (mostly trolling), they must have a lot of work on their plate so it would probably take a lot of flagging until an user is really taken care of :P. It doesn't hurt to rate down bad answers though.

In his defense, I want to point out that Mic is quiet since several months.

He does not insult people no more, he always quotes the sources of his news and the authors of programs are now quoted without exceptions.
Anyway, he complies with requests when someone asks.

Now he tries to re-build a calc-website alone against everybody (okay, it's his fault).

So, please, stop demonize him like that.

TI-Bank is considered the bad side of the french community.

As information, ti bank is now "calc-bank.com" and centralize solutions about all calcs Casio/TI/HP, the time of the angry-Mic-will-take-revenge-and-kill-everybody is over.


Why is this post downrated? There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it.
I think it might be due to wording. At first I thought he was badmouthing everyone instead of the few who still were negative about Mic. It wasn't me who downvoted, though. :P

Really? I might check out the casio section but he has a lot of competition and not a large audience if he tries to take that category.

UCF only just recently, and only with a lot of dedicated work by 2072, forty-two, micropro and I to build it into a growing community. However, our member base is definitely growing and we have gone from 1 post a week to 3-5 a day, so maybe the casio community is growing on a whole as well, dunno.

Well, as you could notice a few years ago back when the Casio section was Casio-Bank standalone site, the forums had like 6 posts a month max and very little files were added. There is already the established Planète-Casio site and the FX-9860G community is very small in English compared to the PRIZM so Omni always had an hard time keeping Casio coders around too.

Yeah, him trying to compete with the established sites who gather more people of higher knowledge level - and while at it, trying to compete with all of them at once, by trying to handle all of TI, Casio and HP - is attention whoring, and has no chance of succeeding.

That is logic, his forum is empty and he doesn't have active members.

I think that's why he posts ads on yahoo.
I did not say he was very competent, I said he is no longer "bad".

The day when a community would live at calc-bank, he and his site would be useful. Now they are not because of Planete-casio/TI-Planet wich are doing excellent work, but it may change in the future, when we will have new calc models, etc...

He has the will, he will not abandon, if people like us continue to disclaim him, he will make more ads/troll on youtube, yahoo, etc...

As information again, calc-bank has an "english" mode, like TI-Planet, all the news/articles/archives have a translation, click on the US flag on the top-right.

No matter, I was expecting while writing it...
Thanks for having rebalanced.

This remains to be proved, given that, as you know, in the past, bursts of hatred followed statements about fixing his behaviour.
We'll see in 2015... assuming (and that's a huge assumption ^^) that no outbreak of hatred occurs until then ;)

That's wishful thinking from him, but fortunately for the community as a whole, other sites falling out of favor has little chance of happening :)

Wishful thinking again, as you know by now ;)

More spamming would only dig even deeper the grave of the reputation of the spammed site and of the poster ;)
Common sense rightfully holds that reputable, active and knowledgeable sites (like Omnimaga, Cemetech and TI-Planet) hardly ever spam out links in order to perform attention whoring.

Well, we seem to be getting lot of b&w coders (Classpad, fx) on UCF lately...

No, it's been more than two years that he clings to start his site. He has only it in his life (yes, it's sad), trust me, he won't abandon.

I perfectly know that his chances to success with calc-bank are small, but we must let him try.
Say everywhere that he is the "bad side of the french community" won't help.
