You are silly.
It is obvious why he used his ping list to target one FReeper. Tell me, was his ping to cultivate discussion or hammer someone? (Remember, I gave the link.)
You sound just like Ann. I never said his ping was a "horror," just inappropriate. If you want to think it was a horror, that's your bag, LOL.
I cannot speak for Sam Hill. IMO, The act of pinging his list was not to encourage "his posse," or his "janitorial staff" to "gang-pile on another Freeper", but to call attention to his yeoman's work exposing a wholly ad hominem argument of a certain abusive Freeper.
By way of analogy, he was a hunter inviting his fellows to view the carcass of an elephant he had bagged. His inviting his ping list you to view his trophy, does not imply that he wanted any help in flogging the dead animal.
A full 3 hours later, you show up (post 572), remark upon the trophy, and unimpressed with its significance, patronizingly ask him "to please refrain from using it this way again."
Let me be clear here: You do not have the right to argue with SH about how he should use his own ping list. You do have the right to ask off of it or on it.
Just as you have rights, SH has the right to exclude you from his list. Yet you continue to badger him in public about it, stalking him on this thread to get your dignity back.
You had a disagreement with him about his usage of his ping list. Rather than listen to you second-guess him, he takes you off. Two days later, in the hunt for another elephant you start nipping at his heels and proclaim to the world "I got punished by Sam Hill the other night, he evicted me from his ping list! . . . He used his ping list to gang-pile on another FReeper. . ." He tried "calling the posse (who never showed up!) [that] was weak." Now you've insulted him twice: he's encouraged the hammering of a Freeper and his posse won't help him out because he's weak. (see "KJC1 called 'pathetic twit'" posted above)
What is weak is your attempt to conflate your disagreement of two nights ago with the arguments on this thread--they are wholly unrelated. Instead of engaging Sam Hill on that subject you snipe like a sissy-mary spreading nasty rumors about the pretty girl who won't talk to you.
You sound just like Ann.
I'll take that as a compliment.
