Yes, except i am the perfect scapegoat half the project is dead set on to
bash at the minor occasion, i am seriously sick of this, it is as if people
are trying to drive me out. So, Frans can keep on insulting me and making
insidious derogative comments, and everyone finds it just fine, while i get
attacks on irc when i post perfectly reasonable stuff and try to have a
reasonable discussion.
Also, half the folk in this threads are repeating all the same things all
over.

of it ever changing.

How would i know, vorlon told me weeks ago that he was going to ask for my
unbanning, and when i asked you, i was told this was not the case, and i had
no news since then.

Are you sure i did that ? i don't remember CCing stuff in the middle of a
thread, only sent there new threads, believing it will be blocked by the ban
anyway.

Not cheerfulness at all on my part.
