That's different, of course. Still, that info was not contained
in your post that started this. The information you included
there was, "look, here's this idiot who rants against manga and
says 'If you flame me, I'll tell your name' - let's all flame him
and get his page torn down". I do not doubt that you had only the
best reasons to do this (as your new information shows), but can
you fault me for getting a different impression from your former
post?

Not expecting them to answer flames with flames, of course. ;)

Maybe you should include the *vital* info up front, to avoid
misunderstandings like this. Again, I realize now that your
motives were better justified than my first impression made me
think, but that first impression was based entirely on your first
message (_An Idiot..._). If you look at that message again, can
you see what I mean?
