You always have the option of not voting?

I, personally, believe in understand what I am voting on.. arguably politics rarely works this way, but we are programmers so there's no reason for us not to understand what we are saying when we vote.

I was not attempting to slander you, so I'm confused about the legal charges comment you made. I just wanted to point out the reason why I felt it necessary to bold face a portion of my short comment. You should feel proud that you gave me the inspiration to make judgements easier for those with short attention spans! I am only giving you credit, cheer up!

    I knew exactly what I was voting on. When skimmed, your article supported (until the phrase was bolded) softreferences. Those are bad. I completely understood what I was doing, and support it now as well. The fact that you altered your article after the fact is actually evidence to my claim.

    I wasn't talking about slander. I was talking about copyright. It's a copyright violation to take private mail and rebroadcast it without permission. I believe I was clear earlier when I said "(b) a copyright violation". What part of that did you miss?
