With all due respect to Curtis, I think this "You vs Us" distinction (two-group thing) is totally a fabrication of himself

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?

I actually think different. I think he does not want an argument, but by banning you and JWOCKY, he did not help anything.

Oh, that you vs us thing is probably the only thing, I would agree too. Not because I like it, but it is the situation, Curtis has created with the help of his willing helper Stuart "Eichmann". So, he goes and hurts my friends, I see no way to pet him. Just that.

Exact my point. The situation of a split community, he crafted it.
I think he tried that we dropped off with his banning. It is not coming along as expected, it seems.

And I think that is one of the central painful positions in this cross-road.

Now they feel that banning or hurting, or allienating people that accepts a call to cooperate with us, is the new way of operation, or so it seems.
Like banning it0uchpods, Bomber, and Falcon out of their support to terraGIT.

Or digitally harassing Falcon for creating a mumble server. He wants to help an issue and provide infrastructure, and they haste into annoying him, just out of association.

Oh come on, Stuart is just a simple minded guy what i know of his not so smart moderation. That does not immediately make him as smart as Eichmann.

Kind regards, Vincent

LOL
I think JWOcky agrees heartfully with you KL666 on that about Stuart, But he uses the "Eichmann" (quoted) just to paraphrase the paranoia of Hooray

Hi Guys,

There is method to my madness. I will be sending Curt a reply to his latest email to me, but I will include in my comment that if he replies that will automatically be him giving me permission to post the content of that and all future communications. Even if he restates that he still denies me permission to post his comments, by replying, he has tacitly agreed to my conditions and I will proceed accordingly.

You see, he doesn't get to have it both ways, once I change the rules of engagement, because I honored his initial demand not to publish his email comments to me. Now I have the right to change those conditions and it is up to him to decide whether or not to send a reply.

I now have the advantage. This is a case of where having studied game theory can be very helpful with someone you don't expect to fight fair.
