There is a mis-statement of the events. I am willing to abide by the DNP request, and I have apologized profusely for: a) misunderstanding the application of the "rescinding by posting to" part of the rule (applying to the first two of the three posts in question); and b) not remembering that the DNP was in effect from months ago. Instead, I remembered the friendly banter we had enjoyed for years. I'm sorry that is no longer possible.
> I need, for my own mental health, to stop all contact from Larry. Is that not my perogative here? There is no Ignore button available.
Nor is there a list of DNPs in effect, so that posters such as myself, with fallible memories, can refresh their recall. Despite any impression I might give to the contrary, my recall is about as poor as anyone can imagine. I would argue for an expiry date on DNPs, or, a list that can be referred to.
> Isn't the DNP rule to protect us from posters we don't want contacting us?
I do believe that there is an alternative, as every post is signed.
> I am unable to respond in a civil fashion to Larry. So, the DNP prevents further disruption of the board.
I'm sorry.
> If too much attention has been paid to this (in Larry's opinion) - had he not posted to me, there would be no such attention.
I am countering an argument about the process failing, with another argument that the process is in fact moot. I did not raise the issues in this thread.
