I'm asking you to stop because this thread is boring. I've already told you that I didn't like your tone, and you've told me that you don't like my tone, and nothing seems to have changed. But that's cool. We don't need to keep reminding each other how we feel. I don't think we need to talk about it any more. > So to get things straight: the community structure is something like do it > our way or we will bully you then tell you to be quiet? Pretty much. Let me rephrase that as, you'll behave according to our community mores, and when you don't you will be reminded that you should, and if you continue, you'll be forcibly removed from the community. Pretty simple, and reasonable. Best, -- Noah Slater, http://tumbolia.org/nslater
