What is this supposed to show? You've been hassling me in threads other people start, like this thread that I didn't start. Those numbers don't show anything. But I really don't understand why you think you should be allowed to snark and hassle me as long as it's infrequently.

You're making that really clear.

It didn't even call you out by name, but go ahead and couch it as if I'm badmouthing you at every turn.
You're using the forum description as an excuse to absolve yourself from your actions. That's your choice, but it is a choice.

If I bother you so much that you need to rattle my cage, why do you continue to read my posts?

ETA: Before you turn that around and ask why I read your posts, your posts are about me. My posts aren't about you.
