CC,
There's a difference between preaching /in favour/ of Linux in a Linux
advocacy group and preaching /against it/. There are scenarios to look at:
1. Pro-Windows site/forum gets pro-Windows feedback/content
2. Pro-Windows site/forum gets pro-Linux feedback/content
3. Pro-Windows site/forum gets anti-Windows feedback/content
4. Pro-Windows site/forum gets anti-Linux feedback/content
5. Pro-Linux site/forum gets pro-Windows feedback/content
6. Pro-Linux site/forum gets pro-Linux feedback/content
7. Pro-Linux site/forum gets anti-Windows feedback/content
8. Pro-Linux site/forum gets anti-Linux feedback/content
Cases (3) and (8) are classified as "trolling". Cases (2) and (5) are
classified as "arguments". (1) and (6) are evangelism, while (4) and (7) are
means of fighting trolls, once/if they emerge. Sites such as LinuxToday can
include criticism of Linux, for example, because they do not attract the
types of 'creatures' that c.o.l.a. must tolerate. In a forum such as this,
weaknesses of Linux ought not to be shown and weaknesses of Windows can be
used to deter and drive away those who do /NOT/ belong here.
