Fine, but I didn't ask you to shut up. I asked you to keep your demands to specific threads, which you are ignoring. If you equate this with beating you into shutting up, then that is your decision and not mine. Also, I resent the fact that you are referring to "everyone" when everyone is not involved. Please attempt to keep your references to requests that I am making rather than invoking generalisations. To be honest, I should take this off-list as I'm sure no one else wants to read this (vultures aside!). >> I made a perfectly reasonable request (ie please keep your demands to >> threads that Erik is posting on) and you have decided to ignore me. > >Have you not been paying attention? It is illegal to make perfectly >reasonable requests on this list! The evidence: I made a perfectly >reasonable request myself, and look what happened: it >generated a massive attempt by several people to shut me up. Thank you! "Several people" rather than "everyone". We're getting somewhere! Nevertheless, I remain unconvinced that you are justified in ignoring requests from other listmembers merely because Erik refused to respond to your request. >> I can't stop you wasting my bandwidth (other than >unsubscribing) but I >> can stop wasting time by reading any of your mails. > >Your loss, not mine. I disagree. At this moment in time, the majority of your emails to Brin-L have no content besides repeated demands to Erik and I do not need to keep reading them. Unfortunately, in trying to make my request, I am doing much the same as you. >So, you believe that different rules should apply for >different members? Some members should be allowed to defend themselves against >attacks, but other members should not? Some members should be allowed to >make reasonable requests, but some other members should not? No. I didn't say that. I have made a reasonable request to you and you have not complied. I am not about to start spamming the list with repeated demands that you cease and desist when it is obvious that it will have no effect.
