No I was not writing of WS. You totally misunderstood.

Win sees a difference between your request and Poet's request. I think we all see a motivational difference there. The difference is that I see no need for Win to violate rules of compassion and decency when posting to you. Your request to him to not post to you was quite obviously formalistic, and intended to play into your argument. And it is also quite obvious that you enjoy the whole thing. So decency and compassion is not involved on either side in your exchanges with Win.

Decency and compassion on your part would seem to dictate (imo) that you respect someone who does appear to be genuinely distressed. (Whereas you appear to be very far from genuine or distressed).
