The poor thing mentioned (again) being driven away from the FreeBSD Project because of two developers who shall remain nameless (one of them being myself), who dared calling him an idiot. Well, I will repeat myself: clueless and whining person == idiot.

Should you not have been an idiot, you would have admitted that your understanding of how ports and packages work was wrong and you would have just said that it was simply not a good match for your needs. There’s plenty of choice, shop around, as you’re already doing.

Apart from that, there are loads of people using patched releases (via freebsd-update(1), which you also criticized, for various utterly wrong reasons, as pointed out by Colin Percival, the maintainer of the tool) with what I’ll call stable packages (which is actually latest packages built on FreeBSD-STABLE, as opposed to current packages which are built against FreeBSD-CURRENT).
