It is customary all over this forum to ask someone's permission to include them on your ping lists and to include opportunity for them to ask to be taken off. For all I know there is a protocol in effect since it is such a widespread practice.
I, therefore, request to be taken off all your ping lists of any variety. I have not said you couldn't separately post to me, so, therefore, your rehashing of other rules is irrelevant. You simply don't want to be bothered with the time it will take to comply with both.
I have no "ping lists" that I keep personally. While I might occassionally (rarely) use the GRPL list, I can assure you that you are not on that list.
"For all I know there is a protocol in effect since it is such a widespread practice."
Then feel free to document it.
Until then, I will most assuredly include your name in with any others when I post to you or talking about you.
Pinging you separately is simply irrational and is a waste of my time.
Deal with it.
