There's an awful lot of "may be's" and "might be's" and other assumptions in what was a very final judgement of him, John P. I think your sort of message is the kind he's used to reading elsewhere. I think Max got the situation dead right in the other thread.I don't have enough evidence to personally call him a jerk. We can obviously all be jerks sometimes, but most of us aren't jerks all of the time.
Please put this in perspective IIRF - you haven't done anything so bad, or anything that is new. Others here have started off on the wrong foot, but didn't give up and are still with us.
Nobody can force you to stay or leave, but it would be a shame if you left a place you could enjoy because of a misunderstanding.
