9.18 horrendous

[Hika van den Hoven]

Hoi All,

Everybody is free to act as he or she sees fit. However, do not expect

If you want to be treated as a human being, treat others as such. Be
always polite! If at least you want to get any result,... other then
release of your frustration and getting baned for it.
