Well i got voted in (thankyou) and i can guess that most people either voted for me because:

A) They find it easy to talk to/with me
B) I have helped them in the past
or
C) People think I am so obnoxious and annoying that that can only be a good way - when speaking to developers - of getting things done for the users.

Anyway give me honest views

Dear Professor C. Habit,

Congratulations on being elected to the council in order to represent the plebs. I hope it will not be too long before you annex the rest of the council, and take supreme control of the republic of Gentoo. It can only be for the better.

Please accept my interest in the position of leftenent once you assume control.

Yours subserviently,

Sugar

To be quite frank, I find it funny that you're the one who won and yet you don't even use Gentoo.

Meh. Good luck. :)

Doesn't change the fact that when you look at what Cokey has been up to in terms of gentoo-uk he could be using Windows and nobody would care. He is one of the driving forces behind the community and even if he's driving it straight into the ground people would be cheering.

its not whether cokehabit will be a good or bad rep, its whether a rep can do something
I personally don't think having a rep with make a blind bit of difference, but hey ill back it while it is a "fad"
#define HelloWorld int
#define Int main()
#define Return printf
#define Print return
#include <stdio>
HelloWorld Int {
Return("Hello, world!\n");
Print 0;

I personally think you'll be a really good userrep than me, you're far more in touch with the community than I am (except for the french folks)
I'm happy to work with you !

I admit that I did not vote for you, but I honestly believe you'll do a fine job in this role.

i was quite annoyed that you got so many votes! :evil: If it wasn't for you i would have got over twice as many votes as anyone else :D

Glad no-one thinks i'd be the worst person possible!

That's just because almost all french votants voted for me. I don't thinks many (if any) non-french people voted for me.
Anyway, we thought it would be nice to have a french speaking userrep because we're one of the biggest communities along with Germans and Italians. They should have done the same.

I think you're a brilliant person to ruin any credibility user reps might otherwise have had. Good on you for screwing up a devrel project!

Mr. Prowse,

You've certainly left a negative impression on me with your behaviour so far. I can only hope you won't wreck the user respresentatives project beyond repair with the attitude you've shown until now. I hope you'll tire of Userrel as quickly as you did of Arch Testing.

Now, now. Pig bowels notwithstanding, user reps should not show prejudice towards any section of the user base.
