brian, i will not have off-list communications on this issue. my career
has suffered because of steve's baseless accusations. now i will give
him half a day to publish proof of everything he has said against me in
the past, or shut off the list and sue him for damages. Architexturez
affiliated sites have done this in the past against corporations in the
USA and won damages. and i do not mind going through the whole process
again.
i don't care about 140 other subscribers, all i see is, Design-L.V2 has become a platform to spread slander against an individual. this is unacceptable.

then shut it off. i can't do anymore. i'm sorry.
it reflects poorly on 140 people who are not steve.
for him to have the power to shut the list down.
i did what i can. if you have to shut it down, do so.
i simply cannot be all things to all people, all the time.
i posted on list, to basically tell him to stop
being a shit head. that is all i can do. i do
respect you and our relationship yet i cannot
do much more. i ask for your patience and also
your trust that i am doing the best i can, given
the circumstances, including trying to be professional
about it and not going ape-shit on him.
i cannot and will not beg. we are friends.
please let's keep it contained and work it out.
thanks.

i don't care. he has already made me his problem, he is a vindictive kind, and i just want the list to go away from my servers.
steve can do as he pleases.

hold up. just give me a chance to deal
with steve. i agree with you, let me
try to contain it. you are right in
your anger and the list may speak in
defense of this perspective. please
give it a few minutes to percolate.
steve will unsub possibly as a result.
if that is not okay with you i cannot
really do much about it immediately.
i mean, banning steve is not the right
way because it will reflect bad on you,
which you are not the problem, he is.
he has to be humiliated. please keep
this private as i need to confide this
with you without having him to deal with.
so i can manage the situation and work
through it. he is unstable as a person,
something is not right with him and it
is not easy to expect him to understand
what is right/normal- so it has to be
dealt with carefully to limit more such
problems from happening and him making
more problems for you, evne if the list
moves, he could make you his problem on
the internet and really become a problem.
so just give me a chance to work it out.
i know our commitment and i am taking
responsibility and will do something if
he does not make a move as a result...
i just need a chance. i can send what
i wrote steve but i think it is best
to keep it simple and try to figure
it out with an information/e-mail war
of private messages, as he is psychotic
and will become enraged/insane and make
even more projects/stories and go mad.
hang on. please. let's keep it mellow...
i am dealing with it, give me a chance...
brian

Brian, how long do you need to move the list? Also, let me know if instructions are needed for backing up all list archives -- along with the conversation scripts we wrote to retrieve the old V1 archives.
