Hi,
I'm just curious whether Mark Shuttleworth ever posts messages on these Ubuntu forums :)

There are two posts currently at the top of this forum titled "I wonder whether..." and "Is there any way..."

Can people please be more specific in their titles so we can know up front whether we're interested in reading the posts?

I don't think he is a mod. I'm pretty sure he has other things to be doing than moderating the forums :p

He doesn't spend time on the forums (at least, not logged in) that much. Obviously, he has a lot more to do, unlike people like me :-)

It gets me huge embarrassment sometimes, but for times when I am correct, it feels good. \\:D/

There is a rumor that LaRoza and Mark Shuttleworth have never been seen in the same room!! In the same way LaToya Jackson and Micheal haven't been seen together.

I heard that in OMG pInK pOnIeS :)

Looks rather ordinary to me. Looks like an older version.

Lol, how would people know that, unless there's like an Annual Ubuntu Staff Meeting?

.....there, uh, isn't one, is there?.....

I would think a cosmopolitan, worldly, intelligent, educated, professional business entrepreneur like Shuttleworth would:

a) probably not have much time to moonlight on the forums

b) if he did have time, he'd probably use some totally off-the-wall, juvenile alias, like "DeathLordHaxor" or "I<3Microsoft" just to throw folks off his trail

PS: I heard a rumor in OMG_PP that LaRoza was actually an advanced AI construct the folks at Berkley comp labs came up with to imitate human interaction in such a seemless way as to be undetectable from a real person. I heard the folks at Berkley asked Mark S. if they could make the AI an admin on the Ubuntu Forums just to test how it goes, and they've been monitoring his/her/its performance ever since. LaRoza's quite believable, in my opinion. Almost has me fooled.

Or he could do just the opposite.

Reverse psychology.

Can anyone verify that LaRoza is in fact a female being?

Or has she been here long enough for everyone to know she's female?

I'm sorry, but I'm just curious..... :? XD
