Do you ever wonder why despite different situations and reasons no one is |
| 9 |
saying that? Think about it for a bit. What would cause you to not say the |
| 10 |
above? |

That right there is the biggest issue. That comment is one sided. It is |
| 13 |
expected from the "miss-behaving developer", but it never comes from Gentoo. |
| 14 |
I have never seen anyone in Comrel/devrel say the above. |

Ok maybe I blew it and mishandled a situation. Maybe we should not have |
| 17 |
censored someone on IRC/MailingList, etc. Maybe we overreacted with punishment |
| 18 |
etc and made a situation much bigger. Maybe we did not need to get involved. |

Just because you dial 911 and police show up. Does not mean they do anything. |

The blame always falls on the individual. Never others, or the process. It is |
| 23 |
very one sided. I have seen far more mistakes on the other side. Which is why |
| 24 |
there is no way I would ever say the above. Others likely have their own |
| 25 |
similar reasoning. |

Do as I say, not as I do, no way Jose!!! |
