    Well, I certainly don't know what your intentions were, but to me, your remarks came off very demeaning in tone.

    Definitely not fully intentional. I will say I was getting brushed the wrong way by both his responses to dbrauneis and myself and his irritating impatience early on in the thread (the first few posts), so I might have come across too terse for my own good, but whenever I'm pushing for people to review, unless I'm explicitly calling them lazy (and I will do that in no uncertain terms...like calling them lazy directly), I try to make sure they get how easy I feel the process is. I will say, though, that sometimes I just don't see my own abrasiveness sometimes, so, yeah, it's possible I sounded like an asshole. If I did, sorry to all involved.

    My impatience? Just bumping the thread in hopes that someone who knew could let me know. Everybody finds something to get offended by. Why read into things when it's just text? And it turned out that my point was valid, since some guys came and talked about a site update that would address the issue. Just because you're knowledgeable doesn't mean that people who aren't have bad intent, or are ignorant. It was a unique situation, that's why I asked you guys.

    No, circumventing the rules is not cool. The rule in question, which is hardly "threatening," is in place for several good reasons; discussed in these forums on numerous occasions.

    You're free to not agree with this rule, but you still need to follow it like everyone else.

    Thanks.
