Andrew Grey the 4th person replying to my overly delayed original post has
already stated that. It was pointless for me to say so.
I have been defending myself from the attacks directed at me. I might have
ignored it but I am not required to do so.
I will not be manupilated like that. :)
As for your PS, thats too late of a warning naw :)

Like I implied on my earlier post. Regulating it
would be much easier and
time consuming from a central location: Meta.

not authorize any bots to do this task on Wikisources.

It's been pointed out that this was already discussed elsewhere. I no
longer subscribe to Wikien-l, so I cannot personally say what the
resolution
to such discussion was.
"Sorry, this was held in moderation and is now out of context," would've
been
an appropriate first response. The fact that you're continuing to debate it
when
others pointed out it's been debated elsewhere comes across as trying to
get
a different answer from before.

PS: Please disregard my posting this to a different thread, that was
entirely
unintentional.
