that why we're at such opposite ends here because you don't think you

senseless dig at newsgroup users.
Are you trying to alienate us further? Are you trying to create an 'us
vs them' culture? Are you so arrogant that anyone who takes an opposite
view to you is obviously wrong and must be publicly denigrated?
How does *any* of this fit into your job title of 'Developer Relations'?

I'm sure we'd all be happy with a professional Customer Service

There's an IDE option to do just that.

I think it is reasonable to assume that you know him better than most of
us (certainly better than me). And maybe you've met him in person and
so have a better understanding of how he presents himself. That being
the case, maybe your impression of him is more accurate. But all I
(and the majority of others, I will wager) have to go on is his newsgroup
persona.

says the words. If he is incapable of writing what he means and said as
much we'd all be a little more understanding. But he doesn't. He'd
rather berate ng users for mis-interpreting his meaning instead. In
Customer Service terms, that just plain sucks.
People misinterpret what I write all the time, but I don't blame them
for that. it is a facet of the electronic writing age (and why most of
us try going to such pains to use emoticons).

I presume that John K has other tasks, and relates to some (but not all) of
the millions of developers out there during his working day. But, right now,
in this thread, is John K relating to any Delphi developers, or not?
What does seem to have happened is that you suggest the irrelevant red
herring that there are millions of other developers out there, and then seem
to suggest that the fact that other developers exist (although John might
never know their names, email them or talk to them) makes it irrelevant how
John interacts with the people he does actually interact with or represent
himself and his company to them through that interaction.
