then pay attention to who is driving threads off-topic,
and let them know what you think about it, and why.

i'm posting examples right now, and i'm going to
explain those examples.  if i can do that in peace,
i'll be perfectly happy to do that and nothing more.

i don't care if anyone replies to my posts.  so if people
want to get this over with quickly, then stop responding.

but if i'm attacked, i will defend myself.  it's that simple.
