Whether you cut me any slack or not is irrelevant, whether you think that I deserve it or not is also an irrelevancy, whether you think it is a misuse of language i could not care less, its not my view that FMF lives in Indonesia for anything less than pure motives, I personally dont care where he lives or why. I merely reported what the site stated ...[text shortened]... g an apology, his gripe and your gripe should be with the persons who authored the text, not me.
I can have a gripe with the person who authored the text, as well as the person who implies it should be given any more credence than it should. You are just trying to deflect.
Why do you persist fighting a point when you are so clearly in the wrong?
More to the point, why would you continue fighting such a point even if you think you are not in the wrong. Any mature adult realising that their comments could even be construed in this way would normally apologise for any unintended offence caused.

I did not brand FMF a legendary troll, Duchess64 did and if you look at the website posted in the open posters remarks you will see that it also confirms FMF as a legendary troll and states he may be living in Indonesia for less than pure reasons.
what will you gripe about now?
Public statement: the website does not confirm that FMF is living in Indonesia for less than pure reasons, it merely states that he is. I have revised my statement to take into account this * difference less it be construed that it he is in fact living in Indonesia for anything less than pure motives. Not my personal view.
Here is the revised statement.

I apologise to those who read into the original statement what was not really intended and perhaps due to an inaccuracy of language on my part construed that it did in fact confirm, rather than merely state that FMF lives in Indonesia for anything other than pure motives. Again, not my personal view.
edit: not a subtle difference, merely a difference.

Ha ha ha you're as bad as a politician who has been in court and lost
then he comes out on to the steps and gives a speech saying,
"This is a victory for us today" ha ha ha ha.
You should be Prime Minister.
But I prefer to believe that certain lessons have been learnt from experience, that we are coming, slowly, painfully, to an autumn of understanding. And I hope that it will be followed by a winter of common sense. If it is not, we shall not be—diverted from our course.
To those waiting with bated breath for that favourite media catchphrase, the 'U-turn', I have only one thing to say: 'You turn if you want to. The dudes not for turning.' I say that not only to you but to our friends overseas and also to those who are not our friends.
