Thank you.
Now that I can live with. No need to apologize. If anyone still wants to say that you used the wrong words, then they are just nit-picking. I agree with others that in the context of this thread your original post was not as clear as you may have intented it to be. This version here leaves little to argue about.
I myself am guilty of beeing misinterpreted in this thread. Check out
page 12, posts 170, 171, and 172. For the point I was trying to make I needed Smashwords to be a book store that carries a wide selection of independent authors/publishers and high dependency upon PayPal. So I clarified, and it seems to have been sufficient.
