Vitaliy, (= maybe, never) could well be true. To the best of my
ability, despite how I might like to push the envelope a little at
times, I try not to be on the receiving end. And personally I don't
find it that difficult

It's not that rules "suit" me, it's just that I have no particular problem
with them the way they are. That's not to say I'm some puppy dog.
I'd react if I thought I was being treated unfairly. Nothing is so big
that you can't walk away from it

I wouldn't advocate removing anyone or making life here intolerable
enough for them to leave, but there's obviously a great contention
between some members and admins that the many of us really don't
"get". I conduct myself on the list as per my personality, others will
do the same. If their conduct is at odds with the admins then that
is something which I can do nothing about

Anything's worth a try

Not sure what to make of that

Please don't think you've wasted _my_ time. I'm interested
