Well now...that cinches it, doesn't it?  Give me a break!  These
generalizations DO imply that people like me are somehow
pirates because we DON'T RESPECT Nathan Mates.  If it were
Mike Westerfield who was leaving csa2 I would be the first to
defend him, but NOT Nathan Mates.  You want to know why?
He flames EVERYONE.  I DON'T CARE IF HE FLAMES THE
PIRATES, but he flamed NON-PIRATES.

Do you understand Nathan Mates was WRONG?  Can't you
draw the line between the pirate issue and Nathan Mates'
problem of flaming everyone? You are preaching to the converted.
Most of us who "attack" Nathan don't even USE places like
Asimov...we "attack" him because HE ATTACKS US.  Nathan
has done much to kill csa2 by his actions.

I skip most of DT's threads, did you know that?  Most of us want
to ignore BOTH, but with Nathan it is IMPOSSIBLE because he
jumps in and flames you ON MATTERS THAT DON'T INVOLVE
PIRACY AT ALL.

IS THAT CLEAR?  A PERSON CAN *DISRESPECT* NATHAN
MATES BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN IRRATIONALLY
ATTACKED BY HIM AND *YET* ALSO NOT BE A PIRATE *OR*
A DT SUPPORTER.
