From the above, I assume that you consider yourself a man of independent mind, and that respectability and public opinion are meaningless to you.
Based on this, we can assume that you will no longer post in the clan forum (you don't care about respect, so boasting about clan placement is irrelevant to you, and the opinions of others in the public hold no interest for you), at least especially in the manner in which you have posted thus far. It has been interesting. Good luck wherever your independent mind takes you.
