Even *after* apologising for unknowingly / unintentionally annoying a couple people , I *Really* don't understand why I'm getting bashed , but so be it. Peter> Now you must live with the consequences and receive emails like Peter> this one. I am , aren't I ? duh. I refuse to correspond on this thread any more. If you're still annoyed with me , write to my address and cuss all that you want. I refuse to be drawn in into any more controversies *AFTER* publicly apologising for my mis-deeds , intentional or otherwise. Besides the only 3 people that are/were involved , aphro/me/David Wright sorted it out amongst ourselves. So what gives ? If some third person guy *still* has problems with what I posted eons ago, well go ahead and bash me on the list/personal mail - But I swear *I* wont reply *on the list* anymore ... If any more replies *DO* go out [ highly unlikely because I dont want to spend 1 hour per day trying to explain that it is human to commit mistakes and apologise afterward and expect to be forgiven, to half a million debian users across the planet. Besides *I* don't think it was *that* major a mistake to be talked about, "wasting" the bandwidth of so many people, and therefore *I* will *NOT* go out of the way to keep replying saying , "Hell yeah so I made a mistake and I apologised for it.If you're not man enough to say , 'okay this guy made a mistake and he freaking acknowledged it , so lets leave this guy alone now' " , well , its not *my* problem. ] This is *my* last mail to the entire list on this topic. Any more cribs/complaints/brickbats - address them to <ravi at symonds dot net> and if you actually spoke any more sense than "you're a moron than doesn't know how to act civilized" , i might actually reply. [ The reason I'm looking at it is this way ... if X and Y started bickering on the list for one guy not able to settle stuff out with another guy , *I* would be annoyed , and I'd prefer to un-subscribe from debian-user. Therefore , looking at it in that light , I don't want to annoy many many more people , all the while whining about how right/wrong I was ... and causing more worries. Therefore , this is my last mail on this thread. ] The usage of "you" through-out this mail does *NOT* refer to the person that posted the original mail , but in a general sense , as "any guy that's reading this mail" .
