I don't think you were being b*tchy, but I agree you were fairly strung out. I do understand that - I have done things I regret when I am strung out on an admin issue myself.
I accept your apology, no problem.
I'd miss you a hell of a lot too, you know.But I do want to say this for the record and at this point it really is directed at EVERYONE.
I am upfront. I am not going to stop that. But by the same token I don't think that I am completely insensitive to the feelings of others.
If anyone has a problem with something that I have said then I would appreciate it if they could tell me that. Or if they could just ask me to back off. If they could at least give me the opportunity to attempt to clarify my intention.
I am feeling like 'do not post to me's' are sometimes given because people just want things to STOP (or more precisely ME to stop). That is something that I have sympathy for (having posted something to that effect myself).
I will respond to direct requests to back off or be careful or whatever as best I can.
But if my understanding of the 'please do not post to me' function is correct then I will not be silenced by anyone requesting me not to post to them. I will continue with my general thoughts on whatever the issue was and address those thoughts to anyone who might be interested.
Direct is good for me.
And I promise, the courtesy will be extended back to you all.
