Craig, you have an ongoing pattern of abusing people who disagree with you. Whether by accident or design this imposes a cost for people who wish to say anything that you disagree with (and to some extent to say anything at all on mailing lists you use). You seem to believe that you are entitled to send a stream of profanity to anyone you disagree with and have them just accept it without even disagreeing with you. It may seem like harassment to you to have someone resolutely disagree with your opinions and your behavior. This doesn't mean that it is harassment, merely that your tactics have worked well for you most of the time and you have become used to "winning" debates in this manner over the course of decades of mailing list discussions while other people have become used to receiving profanity. I don't believe that you are more important than me. I don't believe that I should be silenced by your abuse. I am not arguing for an entire absence of profanity on this list. The topics that are discussed tend towards heated discussion. But when messages have profanity without arguments supporting a case it becomes a problem. Anyone who doesn't want to receive mail from me can easily achieve that objective by not sending mail to me. If you send mail to me there is a possibility that I will disagree with you, if I do disagree there's an almost certainty that I will tell you. <cas@taz.net.au>: host taz.net.au[203.16.167.1] said: 550 5.7.1 <russell-sender@coker.com.au>: Sender address rejected: FUCK OFF RUSSELL YOU ANNOYING CUNT!

Russell, you have an annoying and repetitive habit of making up bullshit about anyone who disagrees with you. and badgering them over pedantic trivial shit (often involving your own idiosyncratic re-definitions of words that have well-established meanings) until they either agree with you or shut up and go away. you've started off with self-serving and self-justifying bullshit, so aside from the mail.log entry, i'm not even going to read the rest of your messsage, let alone respond to it. the fact is that you wouldn't stop harassing me, insisting that i agree with you idiotic re-definition of "conservative" when it was absurdly obvious that you didn't have a fucking clue what you were talking about and had no desire to make yourself more informed. i had no intention of agreeing with your moronically simplistic re-definition and had no wish to continue the "discussion" (or whatever you might want to call it). so, you got escalating levels of response to repeated harassment. don't want the response you got? the solution is simple - stop fucking harassing me, stop badgering me to agree with your ridiculous re-definition - it's never going to happen. but your persistent harassment has caused this trivial issue to go beyond that now. so here's a redefinition for you: as far as i am concerned you are now re-defined as not being a person worth knowing or communicating with. I want nothing more to do with you, no contact whatsoever.

when you are told repeatedly to stop fucking harassing me with shit i don't give a fuck about then it is not only acceptable, it is the ONLY appropriate response. FUCK OFF AND STOP HARASSING ME. i can't put it any plainer or simpler than that. there is no possibility that you can misunderstand or miscontrue my intention. there is no subtly hidden invitation to respond here, it is a simple instruction: FUCK OFF AND STOP HARASSING ME. BTW, MY MAIL SERVER IS MINE TO CONFIGURE AS I WISH, INCLUDING RESPONDING TO MAIL FROM YOUR SERVER WITH A "FUCK OFF" MESSAGE. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GET SUCH MESSAGES, DON'T SEND MAIL TO MY SERVER. MAIL FROM YOU IS NOT WELCOME. craig -- craig sanders <cas@taz.net.au>
