I didn't say anything of the sort. I only said I'd be sad when he finally packs it in.
With respect, that's
not what you said. I asked why you thought the news was troubling because those were the words you used. You can tell those were the words you used because
you typed them and I
quoted them in the post you replied to. If that's not what you
meant then that's something completely different but I'm not psychic.
You're often quite aggressive to other people on this board. I respectfully suggest you tone it down a tad.
For a long time, I'll admit I wasn't in a very good place and ran on a very short fuse. I've mea culpa-ed for that more than once and have been making an effort to do better. I'm sorry if you thought my tone was aggressive, but I don't see it. I asked you a question, based on the words you used to express a position. If those words didn't express that position, all you had to do was explain what you
did mean and clarify a misunderstanding.
However, I'd like you retract your claim that I'm "often quite aggressive to other people on this board." Whilst I have freely admitted that I was much more bad-tempered than was good for either me or the forum in the past, I'd invite you to take a trawl through, I dunno, the last three years of my posts (you can find them
here) and come back with enough examples to show that I'm "often aggressive."
If you can't, or if you just can't be arsed (which is fair enough), then I'd like you to withdraw that accusation because, frankly, it's quite hurtful.
