hurwood, this is what we call in my country... "a dick move". stringer, what is it you do that pisses all these people off? i cant figure out how it is that any of your quirky list habits warrant the kind of bizarre, disrespectful and abusive behavior that gets directed your way. habits that ive never really noticed except for when some asshole or another decide to rake you over the coals for your offenses. the only thing i can figure is that off list you go around killing thier puppies and shaving thier babies piebald... you should stop such things immediately so that i dont have to endure the behavior of your various "haters" as it causes my angina to start acting up. xe over and out ------------------------------ Message: 9 Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2006 09:28:26 +1100 From: "Michael Hurwood" Subject: [KLF] RE: FTP server [OT - RMString Rants] To: Message-ID: <006301c63736$2850bf60$3700a8c0@Detachable> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sent to me privately...

I thought my motives were obvious, but it seems not.. this is what we call in my country... "a dick move". But it's acceptable to send private hate mail and then constantly pretend to be the injured party in a public forum? RM doesn't mark his private e-mails as private or confidential, so I've go no problem in making them public. Especially since they show that he leaps on the smallest of implied insults with vitriolic personal attack. This is reproducible behaviour that myself and others have suffered over years. My point in making the message public was simply to educate those on the list as to what happens "behind the scenes" and to maybe make the RMStringer fan club a bit more aware of the full picture. I stand by my initial e-mail. Kudos to MH79 for making some great new stuff available in a way that everybody has easy access to for the 3 weeks or so that we all need access to it. As a way of distributing new material to the maximum number of users his method beats *any* FTP server that *anybody* could set up. That was all I said, but then somebody had to make it personal... Michael PS: Now of *course* I expected a little flame war to erupt. I knew I couldn't get my point across without starting one, it was inevitable. But I'm also able to resist the temptation to stoke the flames for the next few days. I now return to "lurk mode" for the next few months...
