It's simple really - what we know as "Llorean" is actually the Lifelike Lifeform Optimized for Rational Exploration and Accurate Nullification (of double posts).  It's a complex setup of computers in a neural network, purpose-built by the army for forum moderation.  Over the years, it was adapted for IRC and mailing lists, then given away to the Rockbox project leaders when the government realised they had no forums running on any of their servers.

Well folks, this is it. Number 10,000. So, I've been your moderator and general annoyance for some time now, and as with this post I reach the 10,000 posts mark, I'm taking a small step back and looking at how things have gone.

I know I've yelled at a few (lots) of you. And I know there have been bannings, and rules violations. I like to think that I've enforced the rules as they're written. I've tried to be impartial. If you break the rules, no matter how respected or disliked you are, no matter how many or few posts you've got, I've tried to treat you the same.

So here's your chance to yell back. Call me on anything you like. Make something up, or point me at real problems. Offer advice for the next 10,000 posts, or just tell me how much of a jerk I am.

I'll leave this thread up for about a week or so, then I'll probably delete it to keep these forums on topic. But here's your chance, let me have it! But remember, watch your language. You don't have to be strictly on topic, in this one thread, but do try to keep it appropriate.

"Piss off Llorean"

Just trying to keep the thread on-topic as requested.

Okay, I have to throw this one out there.


Nappa: Vegeta, what does the scouter say about Llorean's post count?!
Vegeta: It's over 10,000!!!
Nappa: What?! 10,000?!


Excellent job, man. :)

I understand about Llorean's desire to keep the signal/noise ratio of the forums to a usable level, so that users can find stuff when they do actually search.

I do find sometimes that the insiders on the project are intolerant. For myself, sometimes I almost can't bear to read the forums.

Alright I'm going to be honest here on my thoughts on Llorean.

I find it really funny when he berates other people for doing just about anything but I get pissed when he does it to me.

Sometimes I hate the way he talks all technical and proper and whatnot trying to sound smarter than everyone else. At the same time sometimes when I get mad with my friends I emulate the same style though.

I sometimes wonder "does he really hate modertaing? If so, why is he always on here moderating?" I think Llorean hates moderating and people but he enjoys berating people putting a spotlight on them and there mistakes.

Also at first I thought he was a girl until I found out his first name was Paul.
Also I didn't think he was the type of person to make a thread just for a ridicolous post count. If he didn't point it out who would have cared?

I think Colombo described Llorean best here:

:)

Nah, I think he's doing a great job; these forums are quite useful, and that doesn't just happen on its own.
