I concur with GE. RF is definitely not a persona non grata. I liked him a lot and whenever he could overcome his bullheadedness and DID come to DEFTS3, I loved to hear his voice.
- He was the only one who never submitted a proper application. Could not be bothered to try out newer tools. Nada.
- He was the only one who played that "refusal-game" to this extent.
- He was the only one who played such a theatre about his English proficiency. I still think his English is fine, but you know there are always such problems with "French-Fucks" as Nocken called them all - including Fahnenbohn, also an FF, same theatre.
- He was the only one who we returned his money to so he could pay in proper currency. It remained a mystery to all of us: Why could this guy never learn to submit in a currency where the group needs not pay change fees for? After I asked Shark to return the money to him, EVEN THEN he could not get it done - and did nothing at all. Yes, in that regard I would call him a lost soul. It felt like we were talking to a wall. But even a wall gives more resonance...
Eventually it became impossible to work with him because he did not respond to questions related to his work and neither he came to Teamspeak so we could talk. There is only one term properly describing that: stubborn as a mule.
Pity, but one day we had enough of this rubbish that only kept stalling ongoing projects.
