This community has shown many times that it doesn't follow your logic. |
| 27 |
You've made your point, we listened, we rejected it. |
| 28 |

Please _try_ to understand that you *can't* force your opinion no matter |
| 30 |
how many times you repeat it. There are times when the majority will |
| 31 |
reach a decision you think is wrong. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
If the community feels their choice, albeit not perfect, will help the |
| 34 |
project, you have to respect that. That is, if you want to be part of the |
| 35 |
community :) |

Please try to restrain yourself from commenting on topics where the |
| 47 |
community has already reached a decision in the future. |

Even if you don't like it ;) |
