Hey there folks.

OK I reckon the vast bulk of poster's won't give two drips of snot about this post, but at the end of the day, that is entirely their choice, as it is my choice to make this post.

Sometime back I was maligned (attacked even) in a most cowardly and dishonest way. After an exchange of PMs, only one of the PMs was cherry picked by a poster or very dubious integrity to say the least to attack me (and to encourage ongoing attacks) on a completely separate board to this one. A board that oft claims no relationship to this board.

This was actively supported by the admin of that site and to some degree, justified by the owner of both boards.

Since the problem will not resolve itself, since the issues apparently will never go away and since it is apparently completely acceptable to defend oneself when needlessly and dishonestly maligned I have opted to put up my half of the exchange in full.

I did ask the other poster several times for their "explicit" permission to post up the full exchange, however, as expected, they maintained the stance of a coward and refused.

So, following are my own PMs only...

Happens to all of us, Bro.  Move on and ignore the idiots who post rubbish not on subject and who seek to attack the man rather than play the game.

I, of course, reserve exclusively to myself the right to assail all idiots who attack me personally or try to denigrate my personal memoirs... but then... sometimes I employ a double standard......... but only for the scum who deserve it....
