because I certainly won't. I merely wish to meet the members of this party individually so that we might be able to better understand one anothers true views on biting. In so doing they will have every right to use their own inner reason and wisdom to explain to me their recent bite to me, and I my reason to them to want to welcome a newbie. Obviously, the most reasonable and transparent venue for such an exchange of such a difficult philosophy for me to grasp would be the new simulated-email environment. Should they have any difficulty themselves in appearing before us to share and explain the exact nature of their philosophy of biting to myself and to others, and I my own philosophy of welcoming to them, then in my interpretation, perhaps they might be better suited to spreading and practicng the wisdom of their philosophy for other audiences whom they might find to be more receptive to their own philosophy of biting, far from here. Perhaps they will persuade me of the errors of my own philosophy, who knows?

but I will try to keep an eye on what's happening, and I will probably participate where invited. I'd better point out that while I look like a newbie, I'm not one. IMO an actual newbie would not have stayed around after the treatment I received, because they wouldn't care so much about this project.
366:
Please don't bite the newbies! We still need to get that one straight around here. I can overlook breaking the rules by error, or by good intent, but to break them like that, unless the biting party is brought fairly into my sight when I return in one week's time, then may the biting party save WP,

Welcome to the wonderful, wild, wild, and sometimes whacky, world of

apply to them. Once I have spent one hour with each of them discussing only these three agreed upon topics with them, I will then be quite happy to simply leave them alone, as far as my own philosophical interests might go, I would assume the ANI board will have additional questions for them then.

Thank you very much for your interest, if the outcome of this process is less biting in general, I think it will be incredibly valuable for
Knowledge. Overturning this particular instance of biting is of relatively little interest, although it would certainly make me feel better. I don't do email
378:
My own aim in all of this will be merely to understand for myself why this apparent biting of a newbie occured, and how it might best be stopped. As one of the two parties directly bitten, though I may not be a newbie, I believe it is only fair that my philosophy here should be entitled to such a

I will very much look forward to entertaining such "interesting guests" one by one. The only three topics that we will agree to discuss there will be 1. the activity of newbie-biting itself, 2. their understanding our policy on biting, and 3. their understanding of how our policy may or may not

that was headed in your direction. Stay close by and I will continue to keep you safe, at least until the "whaker party" realizes you are now under my protection, and the whacks they had planned aren't seeming to work as well as they had apparently hoped. I will keep you posted. Here in

greater understanding as this. If my philosophy should be so poor as to be unable to grasp the true philosophy of
Knowledge, then obviously I am too poor of a learner to be able to dare to contribute my poor fare in a place such as this.
