Jonathan I just don't think you "get it". I have been giving this vote alot of
thought and was inclined to give you the benefit of the doubt and vote for
probation and take a "wait and see" approach. Now I am not so sure.
When you try and defend yourself for something that seems to be widely taken as
being rude in such an ineffective manner you just make many of us more upset.
Besides I think you need to understand what is happening. There is a vote
afoot to remove your posting privileges. Is this what you want? Do you even
understand that this is what is happening? or why this is happening?
I have been holding off my vote because I do not participate in cad.dev other
than to read it and others are more effected by your posts then me. I will
continue to hold my vote off but rest assured that every time you post
something rude or without thinking it will sway my vote further and further
towards total revocation of your posting privileges.

I am sure he didn't send a rude reply.

You make a lot of assumptions here that I would not be willing to make. Being
nice does not mean someone is not offended. We don't all flame someone
when they offend us.
Finally, you posted the message and whether or not you intended to post it is
not the issue. It was posted. It was rude. Live with it. Accept the
consequences.(1)

Remove ".nospam" when replying by E-mail.
(1) Just to tired to use more than 3 word sentences at the end. Time to take a
brake until the next time Jonathan puts finger to keyboard.
