Quote - First of all, on the subject line, it was meant as an attention-grabbing byline, not as a statement of fact! I'm a Poser user myself, so on the interpretation most of you are taking, I'm accusing myself of being a pervert too, which was not my intention towards any of you.

Sigh. We really need a "how to communicate with other people" article somewhere, I swear. First line should read something like: "If you don't want people to interpret your words as a statement of fact, then don't make a statement of fact, and especially don't use words like 'official' when doing it." I can see someone getting upset about the item. I can see the arguments about why not to get upset about the item, too. Hello! I'm what you might call "on the fence." There are sensible ways of bringing that topic up to get people on your side about it. This was so not one of them. I'd think it's far more likely you riled up a whole bunch of people against even listening to your complaint (and quite possibly anything else you have to say) in a serious and open-minded manner on account of the way it was presented -- and I'm talking about people who would have been empathetic. Your presentation nudged me right off the fence, see, and right away from thinking you have the ability to consider this situation rationally. (Rational people, such a turn on. Rational people get me all hot and bothered. Wait... )
