So, thus far we've gotten the following remarks from the ftp-masters on
this issue:

- James finds it disheartening when people belliger ftp-masters
- Daniel feels abused and betrayed by Chris's entrapment

Which establishes that there are two ftp-masters who still have a pulse,
but otherwise doesn't speak to the issue at all; and I could've told you
that much anyway, if it even needed telling.

Explain to me again why this was a useful exercise?

Interesting that the DPL gets a break for being pretty busy, but
ftp-masters get flame-broiled...
