Sultan, first, I have deleted my post out of respect for your obvious wishes. You could have posted or PM'd me regarding any objection, as I graciously offered, but you did not.
Second, I tried to quote you as best I could, and I even cut/pasted your PM/email to me to demonstrate such. I did not take any opportunity to reiterate misrepresentations and/or reubut them.
In fact, I tried to quote you fairly and answer you EXTREMELY fairly all around. I tried to bridge differences where they existed and admit your points where they stood. In short, I tried to "make friends" with you, as I feel you are a vehemently biased poster, but knowledgable and thoughtful.
I have, however, saved your PM to me and my posted response so I may adequately respond should you toss accusations around again that I misquoted you. I did not misquote or misrepresent you, and to assert such is dirty pool, old man.
I note that I am exceedingly disappointed. I tried to represent you fairly and post responses to you fairly and amicably. I tried to be non-partisan and recognize valid points while still asserting my beliefs. You turned it on its head, claiming falsities against me. I tried to reconcile differences, and you jumped on it to misrepresent things.
In short, do not PM me again, keep any discussion between us in the open, and KISS MY ASS.
I have yet to make any real enemies on IWF. You have the honor of being the first. I sincerely oppose your broad-brushed post claiming I misrepresented you (as I said, I've saved your comments for rebuttal if you like), and I will gladly put my reputation up against yours any day of the week, month, or year.
Please be clear. If you want to speak to me, do it in front of everyone. Do not PM me again, and you are on my "ignore" list. I am through with trying to bridge gaps with you. You do not garner the respect I give every other IWF member, because you twist things. Be clear: everyone else here gets my respect for their view: you, after this, do not.
Rather than taking the oppurtinity to engage in dialogue, you made this partisan. Only you will lose in this, trust my words.
