hc4361 - "Don't know why you're apologising, Andy."
I have learned in my time on the AB that written communication has its drawbacks - one of which is that meanings and intentions can get lost in the medium between transmission and receipt.
For that reason, it is perfectly possible for people to draw incorrect impresions, either of individual posts, or over a period of time, of individual posters.
I know that I am not a bully, I also know that I would not suspend anyone simply for not agreeing with me - I have yet to make my first suspension of any kind, it certainly would not be on a personal basis.
I tend to ramble on, but that is entirely a result of my everlasting enjoyment of writing, and exchanging views - it is not intended to be dogmatic, patronising, bullying, or any of the other things i am on occasion accused of.
As far as apologising goes - I really do not like to be thought badly of, however incorrect the impression may be - and I offer my apologies because the wrong impression is drawn from my posts on here only, so I must take a measure of responsibility for the wrong impression they have given.
I accept that this is part and parcel of AB life - I love to debate with anyone and everyone, I will take as much teasing as is offered, in the spirit it is offered, and respond accordingly.
Thanks for your support.
