Sorry CD.....I have my doubts. 

You aren't listening.

"We aren't interested in doing that" != "too much work"

I'm done going back and forth with you on this.  The answer is an unequivocal no, you wheedling will not make it yes, and quite frankly, browbeating us over this is having the opposite of the desired effect, unless you're looking for negative attention.  Keep it up, and you'll get it.

Let me make this perfectly clear.  The *volunteer* staff is not interested in babysitting members who lack the self-control to stay away when they have other pressing life needs.  None of us volunteered for that, none of us wants to do it, and therefore, it isn't going to be done.  It doesn't matter how badly Heywood wants it, it doesn't matter how little work Heywood thinks it would be.

There is literally nothing further to discuss.  So exercise some of that self-discipline you claim to have and stop.

So basically you're saying that its not a bad idea, but because it is my idea it is non starter.  Does that sum up your position?

Oh hey, should I report you for misrepresenting CD's position? You seemed pretty hot on that whenever anybody dared to disagree with you. Dodgy

I think he's gunning to get banned. Maybe we should all agree to ignore him?

I asked CD if that was his position.  I didn't say that it was.  If it isn't his position he has the option to correct my summation of what I believe his position to be.  After all he keeps claiming the more I piss him off the less likely it becomes my suggestion won't be implemented.  It looks to me that he doesn't like the suggestion not because it lacks merits but because I won't shut up when he tells me too.

EQ, You have the reading comprehension of a first grader.

CD can lock this thread if he really thinks this discussion has run it course.

The answer was always going to be "no" whether you decided to step up being an asshole or not, Heywood. The fact that you did decide to step it up just makes the "no" more satisfying.
