I have been struck by an uncharacteristic kindness:
The reaction you have received is a result of what I (and possibly, by extension, others) read as a 'whiny' tone. You started by trying to use the O'Club to foment rebellion/sympathy. We called you on it, and you took a progressively more sour note as the thread continued.
The martyrdom and self victimization is kinda grating.
This is one mans opinion, and others may jump in and disagree.
Take your licks, jump back up and smile, then accept a welcome back to the community. We're a lovin' bunch.
