And if I was anywhere near as petty as you I'd post the IRC logs. You
have this tendacy to go from being pleasant to talk to, to seriously
patronising in one simple move. It's against NixHelp AUP and I, and many
of the chan users, are fed up with it.

Strangely while I get people agreeing with my actions, no one but you
tells me they have a problem with it.

Once banned, usually for a few mins at most, the correct response is NOT
to send a patronising email then try to avoid the ban by using another
ISP. You will be welcome back at any point when you calm down again.

As has been stated many times in the past, the channel is NOT run as
part of this list and while anyone is free to use it, there are correct
procedures on NixHelp itself if you feel I or any other chanop has acted
inapropriately.
