Gen: Surprise at threats of reprisals.

Civil discourse and courtesy with a certain person on this forum will get
you threats of reprisals such as this.

I did on 5/1/98 reply to a message from this person. In that message this
person specifically asked for comments. 

I have at no time ever used uncivil language or threats against this person
nor have I in any way libeled this person. I merely suggested that s(he)
might want to exhibit the courtesy of returning a reply, redirecting a
thread, or just plain acknowledging a respondent and that maybe s(he)
deserved some heat and that I would not be inclined to help again. I
personally had hoped to gain a greater understanding of what s(he) posted
but I have received no reply since 5/1/98. Thus my subsequent suggestion
and comment.

This person seems to think that virtually any response is Flaming and has
stated that threads posted about this his(her) posts were lacking in some
way. I would like to remind this person that it was s(he) that posted
messages to a semi-open forum and invited comment. If this person finds it
so lacking  and distasteful perhaps s(he) should  consider un-subscribing.
Otherwise, I want to personally invite this person to join us in the quest
to better understand trading.

Best possible regards,

Brent
