<br>
</div></div>Rude is an opinion/perception. I, as well as many others have asked<br>
*repeatedly* for people not to top-post. I'm not letting the this go.<br>
Period. If people continue to ignore the *long-standing* rules, I'll say<br>
something. In the end I wasn't a dick about it. If you look, I even said<br>
"Please". ;)<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>

<br>
</div></div>I'm not the leader of this team. I lead the art for Breathe and Ubuntu<br>
Studio. Nothing more.<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>

<br>
</div></div>Sure. I didn't go that route. Others can monitor their language as much<br>
as I. It's a 2-way street. If anyone has some perception that I'm some<br>
respected leader around here, it's not on me. I don't want that<br>
responsibility. I help where I can and let people know what's going on<br>
with things.<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
<div><br>
> You seem to have forgotten the appointed role as community leader.<br>
<br>
</div></div>See above.<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
<div><br>

<br>
</div></div>Not my rules. They were here *long* before me.<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
<div><br>
> Top posting is annoying yes, but should you be so cold in your advice?<br>
<br>
</div></div>This is a perception. I said "Please" and was to the point.<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
<div><br>
> You should consider your role aswell as chastising people for not<br>

<br>
</div></div>Again, see above.<br>
<br>
In the end It's how I went and it is what it is.<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
