This shows the problem with Comrel, and how they approach people. Completely |
| 2 |
impolite, not showing any courtesy or respect. |

Nothing polite, no "Hello", "Hi how are you". "How is your day going", "please |
| 5 |
consider the following request". Nothing to start off on a positive note. Just |
| 6 |
jumping in with negativity... There are MANY better ways to go about such. |

I am pretty sure all cultures tell you to great someone, beyond saying their |
| 9 |
name. There is no way such an email would not be received with the same |
| 10 |
hostility it was composed with.... |

Are you really asking me or telling me? Seems like a threat given the rest. |

I know you and others are itching to find a way to enforce the CoC, ban me, |
| 30 |
drive me away etc. That has been quite apparent. |

Thank you for passing judgement on my emails as being pointless. A direct |
| 38 |
violation of the CoC by the lead of Comrel. There are other more polite and |
| 39 |
political correct ways of stating what you just did. |

That happened on accident, as I clearly stated. I was not sure what happened, |
| 45 |
thus I did it a 2nd time, and NOT any further. Those comments are out line... |
| 46 |
Accusing me as if I intentionally did it. I have already filed 2 upstream bugs |
| 47 |
as a result.... |

Maybe take your own advice? Oh wait I forgot your comrel, it does not matter |
| 52 |
how you conduct yourself. |
