P.S.: I am CCing this email to you Ms.Ayer. This is *not* to harass you. It is purely because you have unsubscribed and you ought to read this reply.
Dinesh Joshi, I am sick of your personal attacks after I have left the list and you still *dont* get to decide for me. I had to ping Devdas about this on IRC, so keep trolling the BOM LUG list and dont send me your abusive mails.
Further, this is to clarify that i left the list after I read Anurag's mail on moderation which said : "Not allowing their posts in seemed like the best way to stop them from posting even after repeated request, and give some time to cool down." [ http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/pipermail/linuxers/Week-of-Mon-20090216/066061.htm... ] .
After reading the above mail, I PM'd Devdas(f3ew) on IRC (07:56:42 CET) and subsequently on the #lc channel to check and he said he didnt have the new password and finally replied that he didnt know if I was on moderation or not (jftr, I have taken f3ew's permission to quote him here). Since the second admin didnt know, and the first admin said I was moderated, I decided to leave the moderated list. I sent the mail to 3 folks and it was only after Kenneth forwarded my email to the list, that Anurag clarified the moderation issue : http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/pipermail/linuxers/Week-of-Mon-20090216/066072.htm... . This ambiguity around moderation was cleared an hour ago by devdas on irc. Does it matter ? *shrug*
Raj Mathur, a troll can get away with bullying and not get hauled up for having 40+ threads on the linkedin issue?? Nice to know that. My entry was after 40+ mails : http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/pipermail/linuxers/Week-of-Mon-20090209/065909.htm... . Asking people on the list to contribute results in getting attacked for my gender because I spoke about Linuxchix on the BOM lug?? Nice twist...and the list admins did nothing to stop the numerous strawman arguments, flamebaits and informal fallacies. Asking me to shutup was the easiest but claiming she "/gratuitously/" introduced topics into the discussion is quite something when you were busy warming your hands and munching popcorn !!

You were not attacked for your gender. Stop acting as a victim. You were not attacked. All my posts were a response to your attacks. I argued against your personal attacks. Lastly, some members on this list have behaved unprofessionally and circumvented the restrictions that the admin had put in place ( which actually were non existent but guess your guilty conscience made you feel you were being moderated. haha. ). I dont see the admins pulling up these people either.
You think people will sit by and watch you talk rot and not do anything about it? I suggest you stop with the name calling. I CCed you *one* post in a thread because you had unsubscribed and it did not have any abusive content.
Stop seeking publicity. If you have the guts face my arguments head on and not use people as a proxy.
I am appalled at the members on this list. None of you except Rony and Raj have logically or rationally countered my arguments.

since your arguments have been logically and rationally countered, why don't you move on?
