Some how I knew something like this was going to occur.
To
bad it is not legitimate.
Define "Offensive Language" in the context of these not
agreed upon
"Rules" and the referenced post, Harald? How is it offensive?
It seems
pretty much a "Descriptive" reference to me.
As you know this will fail, but that is fine. How have
you handled the
complaint I sent on yourself Harald? Or are you ignoring that
one?
What was the nature of the complaint? Are we going to see
a copy
or this so called complaint? How was this decision arrived at?
On what
basis without recourse on my part to rebut, is this decision made?
