Sorry to bring this up once more, Vincent. But I think you'll understand why when you read my post. Feel free to lock this thread.

[quote="Timendus"]Okay, you actually got me registering here…
Seeing that the topic has been locked at MC (I have to agree that KV is a bit lock-happy from time to time, but I think he does that to keep the peace, not to shut anyone up) and that the majority of the posts mentioned in the petition is from my hand, I thought I should respond to this nonsense.
Let me start by saying this:
I do not like Kerm
I don’t really know him as a person, but I just do not like him as a community figure, and as the mass releaser he has proven to be over the last 5 – nearly 6 – years.
That being said:
First, not liking Kerm is my opinion, and it is my right as a human being and as a user of whatever forum to have and express that opinion. If the mods of a forum think otherwise, then they have the right to delete or modify my post, but nonetheless I still have that right to express it in the first place. And no petition or any other untargeted whining from whoever can change that.
Second, if you have a problem with anything I say, I hereby invite anyone who’s willing to come to the appropriate thread at MC, and join the discussion, or to PM/e-mail me personally. The kind of behavior shown in this thread is exactly what you seem to be trying to fight, with the only difference that I openly express my opinion, and you all seem to lack the courage to point fingers. You just whine and bitch in your own little topic, feeling really sorry for Kerm because someone doesn’t like him. Damn, how old are you people? Twelve?
Third, this has nothing to do with Maxcoderz, so I’d very much appreciate it if you could all stop bitching about Maxcoderz and it’s staff, and again I urge you to at least get mad at the right people. In other words: Here I am, flame me!
Last, but certainly not least, I do however try to be as constructive as I can be, with Kerm or anyone else. If you had read the entire thread about CalcNet2 properly and unbiased, you’d have seen me doing just that. I criticize, yes. I am direct and to the point, yes. But I only “bashâ€ÂÂ
