Besides, there doesn't seem to be much concern here when it comes to the
Berne Convention.

Did your campaign manager suggest you use the "pompous asshole" tactic?
Admit to being a troll and nothing more significant than that.
I'm going to become a paying member tonight so I can vote against you.

I love the flip-flop Jamie has done on the DMCA. A year or so ago
he was into civil disobedience against it, when he posted the DeCSS
code on M-net; now he cites it as his authority when he uses his
back-door root powers to suppress an item in M-net's General conference
which portrays him in an unflattering light.
Let me repeat that for long-time Grexers, just in case you didn't
get it the first time.
Jamie used his back-door root powers to quash an item in the M-net
conference. This wasn't ancient history; it was last month.

Again... you are an asshole.
This brings up the topic of speakerphones. I have now called you an asshole
twice. See how easy it is to be abrasive in this kind of disconnected
environment.
In person, I *probably* would have only said it once.
But my expression would have been enough to cover the remainder of my attacks.
Much more efficient.

Hey... I spend my time and energy to point out your personal
shortcomings so that you can become a better person.
Now, to pause the flame war...
I don't believe you are serious about your candidacy, so I don't see
why you get angry when I have some fun with you. The
miscellaneous "shitdick" comments scream your tongue-in-cheek attitude
toward being elected.
A candidate should be prepared for mudslinging in this day and age, but
you provide your own mud.
Calling me an asshole shows a lack of public relations etiquette not to
mention a hot-headed attitude that makes you unlikely to be able to
handle pressure.
I can call you an asshole in a public forum becuase I'm not a candidate.
Asshole.

The only way you can help making Grexing a better experience is to go crawl
back under your rock.

Grex has policies that directly violate Federal and international
law, and that open it to a lawsuit that could result in the dissolution
of the company...are you sure your money would be well-spent?
As a matter of fact, I would ask whether the current regime is "serious"
when they continue to support policies which they have been told by people
much more knowledgable about copyright law than I are illegal.

So, Jamie and Phil, you see it as the place of the board to override
a membership vote?

re #68: It should be clear that I'm not questioning legitimacy. I'm
questioning your ability.

Jamie is not saying the same things as Phil. I wonder if Phil knows any of
the board members...

Well, whatever they're serious about, it obviously isn't the law.
Is this a "principled stand" against capitalistic copyright laws that the
Board is undertaking?

Ah, yes, the state of Arbornet is a testimonial to Candidate Howard's
abilities. A snapshot:
The size of the active voting/supporting user base:
Number of currently-paying Patrons: 11
Number of Citizens (low-cost voters): 36
Number of Citizens who paid for themselves: 3
(summary: there are 15 people who think M-net deserves
their financial support)
Money issues:
Contributions from users, June 2001: 0
(but they got all excited because they moved money from one
account to another)
Contributions from users, July 2001: $158
Contributions from users, August 2001: 0
Contributions from users, Sept 2001: 0
Arbornet bank balance, September 30: $515
Number of active BBS participants who have
started in the last 3 years or so, since
jp2, styles and pthomas: a small integer
approaching zero
