Well, I am telling you.

Say no to people advising to turn off GRO/TSO.

If you were the guy adviding others to do so, it is time to see the
light.

Lets fix the bugs if any, instead of spreading disinformation.

I am so tired of telling these very simple facts guys.

If you prefer, continue to work on linux-2.0 but don't ask help on
netdev.
