I used to use Visual Basic years ago to knock up GUI's for things. I was (and still am) a terrible programmer. I'd write the main functions in c++ and use syscalls because I knew more of that than VB. I just liked that there was something I could use to draw the GUI with.

These days, the only thing I ever use is either bash scripting or perl, and I know very little, just picking it up and learning what I need to do when I want to do something, which isn't that often. Thing is, I haven't found anything for linux that has the easy to use draw GUI method of VB for linux. I don't use windows now, it would be good to find a tool like that. Is there such a thing?

Yes, that's part of the problem. But more so is the fetishization of verbal abuse that permeates technical communities, who seem to see the Internet as some sort of post-apocalyptic wasteland where you may only find conflict, and where empathy is weakness. One could speculate as to why us nerds and geeks fall to such traps, but it would only make the problem worse.

Unfortunately, you have done the same thing by rushing to berate your fellow /prog/riders for their scornful tone while responding to a harmful script kiddie, who enjoys flaunting his ``arts'' in here.
