15 Ciaran,
16
17 this mailinglist is not your personal playground. As you obviously can't even
18 be bothered to reflect on other peoples statements without reflex-posting
19 something unrelated I must ask you to stop spamming us. It's just not funny
20 anymore.
21
22 Okay, yes, Mr. Long was quite rude there (trying to fight fire with fire I
23 guess). But in this case you're discussing rather subjective things again (how
24 often is it the case that you don't have a cache?) that might not even be a
25 problem. And, as you consistently don't read any arguments that might
26 interfere with how you want reality to be, sometimes people use harsher
27 language in the hope of making you read (and maybe even understand) their
28 argument.
29
30 Now please stop playing the drama queen, stop spamming (yes, replying to every
31 mail is spamming) and maybe we can return to a technical discussion, as this
32 mailinglist was originally intended (or so I hope).
33
34 Thanks in advance,
35
36 your friendly neighborhood kitten.
