I'm saying that looking back on it it brought me to think about why it was that you wanted to reduce activity, it can be interpreted in a multitude of ways. I don't want to give you a free pass just because you've got a silver tongue.

Oh I am all for everyone to post, it is as you say, hard to make an opinion on someone who has contributed with silence.
So that is not to say that I have a suggestion how to else play this.
