Again, if my sarcasm was derrogatory or sardonic to the point where it extended past jocularity, I apologize.
See, that apology would ring a lot truer if it had come fifty posts ago, or six threads ago.
When you step on somebody's toes (as I stepped on berberry's toes a while ago), you should apologize immediately and try to rectify the situation. You shouldn't deny, deny, deny all the way to the hospital and shout, "Keep your big feet out from under mine," through the operating-theater window while the toes are being reattached.
Now berberry and I are on good terms and most of you probably don't even remember what the hell incident I'm talking about. You, on the other hand, have taken a third of a thread to apologize and in the process, two people have been suspended.
That, I think, is why some people have expressed dismay at your admin appointment. Are you an admin because you're qualified for the job, or just because you're on "the other side"?
A lot of the success of EvC is down to respect for the admins, I think. Don't spoil that.
