[ga-abuse] Re: Complaint Against Patrick Corliss and Bill Lovell

[Sotiris Sotiropoulos <sotiris@hermesnetwork.com>]

Patrick, why don't you do something constructive with your time for a change?
You have spent more valuable bandwidth complaining against people on this ML
than doing anything which might merit some praise... no wonder people are
dissatisfied with your performance.

I wish to complain against Patrick for *wasting everyone's valuable time*  with
nothing but invective and petty vendettas.  He totally misconstrued the meaning
and intent of my post: "The Tower of Babble", and launched into a ridiculous
tirade for no good reason at all (or no apparent reason anyway).

This question is not an attack, it's a simple query.  You are nothing more than
an alt-chair, yet you've been taking on airs like a dictator.  Why don't you
answer the question?  If this is cited as evidence against me, you must really
be scrabbling to silence me...

There's nothing coincidental about it, he was baiting me, just as you are
baiting me.  As for the term "buffoon", did I call *you* a buffoon Patrick?  And
why aren't you entering a complaint against Bill Lovell's personal attacks?

Why do you think we've refused?  Self-organizing does not mean appointed.  Of
course, overlords prefer appointments, don't they?  If I wanted the title, I
would not need your imprimatur to seek it out, and I'm sure the same goes for
the others (even though I am not speaking for them).

Don't you think Bill Lovell's post warrants a complaint?  He attacked not one,
but three of the GA's members, and calumniated another unnamed member by his
"Terminator" insinuation.  If such a post is not provocative and ill-advised, I
don't know what is...  But, of course, he was defending you! which makes all the
difference, right?

I submit a complaint against Bill Lovell for his personal attack on myself,
Jefsey, and Jeff Williams among others.

Here's to the GA alt-chair who chooses to attempt to silence those who voice any
dissent with his ex cathedra pronouncements.

Patrick, frankly, we are tired of your antics.

Sincerely,

Sotiris Sotiropoulos
