hating on gmail

So I've been working off and on trying to get my wireless working on sid,
and there were some helpful replies the first time I posted to debian-user
that steered me towards possible solutions. Last night I wanted to post my
progress and a request for more help, and since I'd used this gmail account
to post the initial message, I thought I'd try to use groups.google.com to
actually attach my response to the bottom of the thread (rather than
starting a new one). Probably I shouldn't be surprised by the result:

Maybe you should have Cc'd googlegroups support.

But it isn't gmail that makes the rules, so why hate gmail?

If you wan't to use linux.* you will have to register. This is decided
by the people running the linux.* gateway and not the google
people. So why not just sign up?
