Why should anyone object as Graham pointed out?

Okay, but then if hosting that you attacked had been a bulk buy hardware
item, would attack the person that organised the buy or feel that you had
justification in attacking an employee of Fujitsu because your tablet was
faulty? IMO it's the same thing really if only slightly different
circumstances.

For example, if I, as I have done and am about to do bring I a load of
SLIMP3's do I automatically become responsible for all those players, as to
me, that's what you were insinuating.

Okay, so he promoted a good deal for the group, what's the problem with
that? As you said yourself, you have taken advantage of many of the offers
posted here in that past as well.

> anyway, i'm leaving - goodbye and thanks for all the bulk buys

I am actually sorry you feel that way and I would suspect that there's more
behind that than just this incident as to leave over such a petty thing
strikes me as a bit rash.

> (and no, i don't expect or want anyone to care)

Well that's where your wrong we do care and we try to balance all the views
and posts as best we can, sometimes that doesn't work for some people I
know, but we do the best we can.
