Dude, perhaps you should think about reading sentences in their entiriety, and
in the context of surrounding paragraphs before leaping to judgements of their
meaning. Now, please don't think that I am telling you what to do, because that
is my intent, although, perhaps I should have said that in the first sentence,
as you may choose not to read this sentence as having any relevance to the
first. The tone of my post was CLEARLY that of my opinion. Hence the use of the
phrases "I think" and "making it for me." I'm not trying to force my views on
him, but was only giving my opinion of his MOC. Granted I made an assumption
that he wanted opinions, based on the fact that he posted his moc on an internet
message board, but I don't think that's unreasonable.
In conclusion, if you only read one sentence of this post, please read this one:
I would appreciate it if my posts were read as single units with related topics
and meaning, so that my actual intents may be better communicated.
