No, but I don't know what he would take well, in his state.

Lil note... If anyone DOES have a problem with me, I'm much rather have you talk to me in private rather than here on the Forums. I'm always available on ICQ... er.. well, when I'm here, I'm available.

Yeah, I can verify the email sent to Lance. Unfortunately, he deleted it. And he's gonna be coming around here, so I'm gonna send him an email with this thread's address in it....

State? You're saying it as if Lee was 3steps away from an emotional breakdown. He wasn't being erratic, he was behaving in exactly the same way he's been behaving for the past two years. Why is his behaviour now any different?

Because he was doing stuff like deleting posts and sabotaging projects.

Actually, Lee's role was to be an 'enforcer'. It's not meant to be polite or nice, that was the general idea. To get the job done. He may have been overzealous, though it's hard to define that exact point where he may have crossed the line. As some people seem to be emotionally weak.

As for relations between CC and myself, they're fine. Once he did speak to me he was quick enough to recognise his mistake -as was I- but it basically centered around a misconnunication of the status of some functions which he (I thought) had fixed. If I'd known otherwise I'd have done it via the server. No big deal, in the end as there were sincere apologies coming forth. He just used his well known jump twenty steps ahead trick. Then look back .

IMO, any job that is "not meant to be polite or nice" shouldn't exist on the forums.

Probably not anytime soon. Around here, people like to just yell back and forth at each other until they get bored and find something else to do. Things don't get solved; they get run into the ground and then ignored.

And, as far as Lee's emotional state, I'm just going from CC's comments about his taking out his RL stress at the Forums. I don't know personally what it's all about. However, his behavior recently was not exactly the same it has been in the past. I had noticed it, too, even before the issue was raised.

Hi, my name is Lance Nutter.

Fabrux asked me to post, in regards to Lee Kelley's deletion and general nastiness toward a post I had made.

-I posted a post Lee considered spam, that I didn't.
-Lee deleted post.
-Lee sent nasty email, saying I was banned and all my posts were deleted.
-I read the post, got ticked, but didn't give it too much thought.
-That Friday I purged my inbox, as normal, because I get a rediculous amount of email every week.
-I told Fabrux about my post's deletion and my angst at Lee, he told me to email CC.
-I emailed CC. I got an appology, advised not to post things that may look like spam.
-Big to-do occured here concerning Lee being booted.
-Lee and I spoke to each other, we made up, are buddies again (I know him from r.a.s.t. and news.startrek.com), and all is well.
-Lee doesn't recall sending email, he may not have. Flare sends me an email whenever someone responds to a post, I may have followed the link, read his post to my post, and, a week later, when speaking to Fabrux, become mixed up and said Lee wrote an "email", rather than a "post". I still think he sent an "email", but, I could be wrong. Either way, who bloody well cares?!

I have emailed allot today concerning this, you are all posting allot, and, to be honest, I find this tedious, childish, and absurd. Lee is an honest Trekker with a bad temper, at times. I personally like him, and wish him the best.

So, he treated me bad, I forgave him. Why don't the rest of you try to do the same? Let's all be friends, or, at least, nuetral enemies...

Well, I'm tired, it is 2AM, Good Night, God Bless, Peace, and Long Life, and all that...

Sincerely

Lance, aka, [email protected]

OK, I do realise that some people are a lot more sensitive than others, but I just don't see how Lee's post can be considered insulting. We've seen and done a lot worse during my time here, so what's changed? And I agree with Liam, Lee is Lee, and he has always been like this. He's very abrupt yes, but that's his personality and I don't agree with his profile being removed because of his personality.

Yeah, let's just go back to the same old insulting each other's value and belief systems in the Religion threads.
