Theymos' pm to me contained a recommendation, not a demand, and I'll treat it as such.
Reminds me when the school principal recommended me to flush the pack of Marlboro reds down the toilet in lieu of other consequences.
Your pm was about more than one user, or is this just a turn of phrase?
Just Lauda. I edited the OP. My initial thinking was that this might be an ongoing strategy but since we have only one example let's make it singular.
You literally asked to be removed, didn't you?
I don't think Lauda meant "theymos, please send a PM to everyone and recommend them to exclude me" but that's not quite the point. theymos has the power to blacklist and should use it if he deems appropriate. Exclusions should be voluntary.
