I apologize for my delay in addressing the neutral tag I left on the Amphenomenon profile. At the time, I genuinely believed the question raised in that thread was legitimate. I was unaware that he had forgotten to close the thread and that it took him a few years to realize this after someone had either intentionally or unintentionally bumped it.
I am going to remove the neutral tag from his profile but let this be a lesson that next time onward close your thread after your query is resolved or such a situation can happen to anyone. I do not have any personal grudge against the OP but I feel he could have sent me a DM rather than creating a thread and accusing me of biased behavior.
EDIT:Not trying to water down the situation, but I believe this is a minor issue rooted from a small and simple misunderstanding. The thread just accidentally fits to be misunderstood, with it being in the same month as we are right now and the date was close by. There were occasions where someone necromanced an old thread and I almost replied or halfway reading the thread, only to realize it's a years-old thread rather than a days-old.
I'll try to page pakhitheboss here and hopefully we can end this peacefully before the drama that we all can see started brewing right above me become a full blown grab-my-popcorn.
BTW, this reply is the reason why I am removing the neutral tag as I could have edited it and kept it because someone forgot to close a thread when he was a Member and realized when I tagged him after he became a Hero member.
I think the burden lies on you my friend. Yes he could have sent you a pm and yes he probably should have started with that route, but you screwed the pooch by not taking the time to look at timestamps. You saw a reply and decided to pounce. You also could have sent a pm I stead of instant tagging.
