Apologies to Pascal...

Rightio... I (and a think a number of others on this forum as well) should probably make something clear... 1) I/We really like having an approachable rules-guru 2) I/We really like having an intelligent rules-guru 3) I/We really liked the fact that VTES has had a rules-guru for a long time 4) I/We really like VTES So, I am/We are sorry Pascal if I/We seem like I am/We are being (any or all of the following): - belligerant - aggressive - objectionable - confrontational - contrary - rude - hostile Retired Baron of Sydney, Australia, 418

What'd I miss? Floppy is awesome, and I'll fight you with my feet if you claim or insinuate otherwise.

Nothing, I just think a few of us more vocal forum members can seem like jerks. So since I thought I might have been a Jerk publicly I should say "I think Pascal does a good job and I'm sorry... I do like VTES and like having Pascal doing his thing" publicly. So if you think you might need to atone for a jerk-sounding post or two... then feel free to say "Thankyou" to the original post.

I consider that more insulting, you "apologizing" for me, instead of speaking to me directly. Just a thought.

Well if a whole bunch of people say "thankyou" then I'd assume they're happy to hear me say those sorts of things on their behalf. If you want to say them yourself, then feel free... I'm just trying to make sure that we all play nice as a community (even from our vested camps and during our confrontational discussions). Retired Baron of Sydney, Australia, 418

I think you cannot say "thank you" often enough to people, who sacrifice their sparetime to do good work. So a big Thank you from me to Pascal and the rest of the bunch. Keep up the good work. Maybe you could change the title of this thread. Baron of Frankfurt

Cheers Pascal, keep up the good work Sir

I don't think he is trying to insult you either. I think Juggs is just trying to let the VEKN guys know he appreciates them even though the boards get a little heated sometimes. Those that have marked the "thank you" tab are just saying they agree with Juggs. I mean...Pascal is doing a good job, the VEKN guys are doing a good job. This is a really great website. Some people like to say "Thanks". > ....play nice as a community (even from our vested camps and during our confrontational discussions). > Here! Here!

As long as the argumentation is polite, we can have it
