> If you think everybody who still contributes here is 100% in agreement with everything I do, they would probably laugh at you. Some do, admittedly, but others still here are as opposite from me as you are. And some have left the site for real. All of them found more mature (and effective) ways of dealing with situations they're not 100% in accord with besides pretending to go away while actually sticking around just far enough out of reach to throw stones.

> Then, I honestly don't know what happened. I don't think I changed, but in any case you did. Well, it's your right. But I only ever hear from you now when you have some kind of "clever" jab to make. Why this a worthwhile use of your time, I have no idea. I can't begin to imagine what you hope to accomplish.

I don't even know what to say to this, aside from various permutations of words synonymous with "wrong". I don't "stick around just far enough out of reach to throw stones". I don't stick around at all. I leave for half a year or so until I'm surfing the internet one day and something reminds me of this place. I think to myself, "hm, I wonder how everyone at Rinkworks is doing, I'll go check it out."

Then I get here, read a couple messages, and post a response or two. I come back a few hours later to check out the responses, and it turns out my posts have been deleted. I don't know if anyone has read them. I don't know if anyone has responded to them. I don't know if anyone is expecting a response back from me. And then suddenly I remember why I haven't been here for six months. I *want* to check up on the community, but somebody keeps cock-blocking me at every opportunity.

Even when I remember to placate you and leave as much of my personality out of my messages as tolerable, they *still* get deleted. And then you accuse me of coming here just to take cheap jabs at you? I don't come here to antagonize you. I don't come here to have any interaction with you at all. The only reason I end up posting negative things about you every time I come here is because every time I come here you do something negative.

(Not to mention the fact that you're the only person who I can guarantee will see any message I post to them. Why waste time posting to someone else, when there's a better than 50% chance they'll never see it? And an even better chance that even if they do see it and they post a response, I'll never see that response. And an ever *better* chance that I won't know which of those scenarios actually took place, and will simply have to assume that no one saw my message, making it as if their response never existed.)

As for the rest of your post, meh. Misunderstandings on nearly every point, but I would just seem petty if I kept pushing the issue.
