I did not consider our disagreements on how I ran the Back Alley to be a war on you or on R&E but clearly YOU DID else you'd not have offered a peace treaty to resolve it.
Included in your offer was telling me that you'd been "nice" for years by not allowed dissing of my boards on R&E, something I'd believed was simply R&E policy, NOT some special consideration given to me. After all, you don't allow it for White Whine or any other board, so WHY would I think you were giving me some special treatment by not allowing it?
The strong implication was that if I didn't comply with your requests, that a board war would commence. Sure you get why I perceived that to be a threat as well as a demand. (Think of movies where someone says "nice family you've got there, it would be a shame if something happened to them".)
Obviously I didn't respond favorably to a perceived threat and demand.
THEN, not only did you violate my trust by posting it publicly, but then calling me a liar. I tolerated it in the Alley, because there are no rules there and you can say what you please, just like greenman, me, and everyone else.
However, NOW you've brought it to this board where tolerating such things is NOT part of the program!
Understand that I am now more than furious with you and quite unlikely to tolerate any more of this deliberate manipulation and insult here. You've publicly called me a LIAR on both of my boards now. So, your attempt to modify it by claiming you have respect and admiration falls on deaf ears. WHO respects and admires a liar?
Had you suggested that I was mistaken about my perception of your implications in the "peace treaty" email, I would not have responded angrily. But you labeled it LIES instead.
You have ALREADY stopped removing DNR violations against me on your board. So it appears that enforcemsnt of your rules is conditional and according to your whims. Thus, there is nothing more to say. You've shown your colors.
