Trust me it wasn’t a plea for change.
As for an argument, nah just pointing out where I see that someone did something wrong. Having an argument takes too much time out of my day especially as the original conversation wasn’t mine in the first place. 
Anyhow I’ve said my piece.
I don’t accept that my post was wrong. It was raw and honest. I’m real, not a bot.
Your opinion is valued though and I take your feedback. I just don’t agree. 
That’s absolutely no problem at all, we’ll both agree to disagree and move on. 
Another civilised exchange. This community really is changing the face of online forums. We deserve some kind of award, I reckon. 
If both parties are reasonable or even semi reasonable* things shouldn’t need to escalate.
*No I’m not talking about our exchange with what I just said but just making a general point.
@AlanDoe when you’re back from sabbatical make sure you bookmark this thread for performance review season. Show management how much you’re needed and ask them to give you a pay rise 
I’ve seen worse on here.
Alan is also welcome to DM me if he feels my initial response was against guidelines. I’ll gladly re-iterate all of the points I’ve made on here.
These types of exchanges make this community great, in my opinion. There is no need for things to escalate, as @patrice58 rightly pointed out.
Closing the thread so we can review posts here - if the topic should continue itll be reopened
