They are. I'll help you out again on this one:

An unsubstantiated allegation. Funny how you can't post the relevant
sentence. But hey, if you did, you'd be the only one taking things out
of context.

No. What you did was butt into a thread claiming it was off-topic for
altnet.general. Since then you've been asked several times to explain
yourself. You've fucked up every time.

Why do you worry so much about it, when quite clearly you love
participating in off-topic posts. "If thine eye offends thee, then

You've quoted me twice. You're not losing the plot are you?

I think if you trace this thread back, you'll find it was on-topic.

And where did I say this? I think you're getting a little bit
confused (again).

You're paranoid, aren't you?
