Don't be so ignorant. Re-read the thread. See what we are writing
about.

So that is why we are discussing the issue here to see if that
"ruling" can be changed.

I know this is not a democracy, but are you people so narrow-minded as
to be unable to take another point of view?

I'm seeing if it can be changed now. This is the first attempt at
discussing this. This is what we do in a democracy, we discuss. I
know, as I said, this venus ain't a democracy - but is is a discussion
newsgroup. So we discuss.

Who said I was breaking the rules? PAY ATTENTION. 

I posted a JPEG2000 file once and was told not to do so again. This I
have complied with.

I think you will find my arguments are still sound. Just because you
don't like a little edge to someone's way of writing does not mean
they do not have a valid point of view.

So there are professional swearers here are they? What the fuck are
you talking about? Nonsense is what.

I am not here to be creative, I am here to argue a point. Where the
fuck you get the idea that one has to be creative in order to do that
I do not know. I suspect you have merely run out of valid
counter-arguments to my proposal and are now using the usual
usenet-time-wasting-argument aproach.

Whoopie. Like I fucking care. In fact I wish you would so I don't have
to read your pointless arguments again.

Again, where on Earth do you get the idea that we must all be
fluffy-puppy with one another? What kind of debating system is that?
