Dear Tim / T Lee

by IanC_OZ Nov 30, 2003 10:36AM PST

Tim,

I don't know why, but since you changed your name, you are posting a controversial response to virtually every post made in SE.

Please stop.

If you've got a valid comment to make, controversial or not, please make that comment. But verbal diarrhoea is simply filling the forum to no benefit.

Sorry for being critical, but some of your posts read today are so irrelevant, its feels like you responded to the wrong post.

thanks and regards,

Ian

First it was that you wanted me to post with a real name.

Now you want to criticize me for my posting style.

Since it is clear I cannot please you and since you have indicated a need to read what I post, I must take a course of action which will lead away from giving you any heed whatsoever.

Tim

BTW, so much for that award I once received.

Where have I said that?

Ian,

In the old SE.

It may have been when some will say that I posted as Soupy Snails. You said that you preferred a real name to a nick, or words to that effect.

You say that was an interesting thread. I say that what I create now is interesting. At least to me. And I don't think you will say that I should be here to please a bunch of people I've never met. If I don't look out for myself, who will?

Hi, Tim.

>> I don't think you will say that I should be here to please a bunch of people I've never met.<<
Though I've never personally met them, I like to think of many folks I've met here as friends, and hope they think of me the same way.

Dave,

I would like to think I've made a few friends here too.

However, that does not mean that I'm going to tailor my posts to try to please most or any segment of this board. I am here to express my opinions and if there are those who don't like what I have to say:

TOUGH COOKIES. Happy

Tim
