Ya know, this is a really good example of my issue with you. You say that’s “just” **Pleonast** going back to our D1 argument. And? I was replying that my issue went beyond you calling out **Meeko** for posting in the wrong thread, and cited **Pleo** ’s reference to that. See below for relevant exchanges, in order.

How is relevant that the issue was also discussed D2? That doesn’t refute my statement that I took issue with it D6. So yes, I voted you after you answered a question, and yes, I took issue in a later Day with something you said in an earlier Day. This is not exactly a “Let bygones be bygones” kind of game. Why are you trying so hard in this game to spin things that are a totally normal course of the game, into something nefarious? (You know, like **Meeko** accidentally posting the above post into N0 instead of D1. Sure, that’s where you started doing it, but you haven’t stopped yet.)
