I had to look up “vapid” :-) Thanks for expanding my vocabulary, whoever came up with that adjective.

Well, yes, there are vapid posts on this forum. Some are annoying, some even offensive (interestingly, those who offend others tend to be offended when someone else points that out). And a lot are instructive, helpful, fun to read. I have no problem with someone sharing his or her enthusiasm with a (new) piece of software. I do not see that as pro-developer in contrast to pro-user.
