Thank you Niamh.

I often browse Tibb without logging in and that's when I saw Kizzy's post which clearly - because of what she writes and comments upon - was a response to my post. She did actually quote directly from my post with "Lawyers with briefcases etc", and the fact that I posted at 8.43 am and then Kizzy posted directly after my post at 9.16 am is also telling.

But the above is not the problem Niamh. What is the problem is that although I responded to Kizzy's response, civilly and reasonably, her reply was nothing more than a deliberate misrepresentation of my response and that very thing is what caused most of the trouble between us before - something I do not wish to undergo again.

Anyone checking what I wrote against what Kizzy alleges what I wrote will clearly see just what I am talking about.

I realise that this is the Serious Debate section Niamh and that everyone is perfectly entitled to quote anyone they wish, if they want to make a point, but continual misrepresentation of what one has said in a post is not debate at all, and neither is it fair.

As for me being under no obligation to respond to that post, I am compelled to respond to any post which misrepresents what I have said, if only to redress the misrepresentation, because no one likes to be falsely quoted - especially on a Serious Debate section.

Anyway, I am not falling out with anyone, merely politely and reasonably requesting someone who seems incapable of understanding what I write and who therefore continually misrepresents me, to please put me on her ignore list and refrain from quoting my posts in the interests of forum harmony and I will reciprocate.

I do not believe that I am asking too much or that I am wrong to ask.
