I wondered quite while whether or not I should respond in anyway to this. It was
well written post but does not address the beef I have (or others from what they
have told me).
I don't care what you write to the list, not at all. Of course you are free to
write what you wish, just as anyone else is. If you write somehting that upsets
someone, take the flak or don't write.
However, the post does not answer my concern nor that of others who have the same
concern.
What you write on list and what you write off list are different. Your private
posts are often downright rude and abusive. You obviously don't see that. It is
not important that you do. The issue is i have asked you NOT to write to me and
it has made no difference whasoever. You still continue to do so. That is why you
don't get answers. I don't want to discuss anything with you. I have tried doing
so in the past and you always end up being abusive, condescending etc.
I am aware you would disagree with this. Like I said it doesn't matter. My
reaction to how you write and what you say is mine and for me to deal with.
Now, I think someone does have a problem when they continue to do something they
have been asked not to do.
I have given you the benefit of the doubt before, more than once, and each time I
got stung. That is why I chose not to correspond with you. How do you explain
your continuing to write to me when i have asked you not to?
I would far rather be on good terms with people, even you. But I will not
tolerate being shamed and abused either in writing or in person.
I had told you how I felt about your writing and you responded with even more
condescention. The only way i could stop that was to ask you not to write. It
didn't stop it.
The comment made to you about having been abused as child which makes you mean,
was wrong and offensive to those of us who have been.
