Yeah...maybe I told Texanns002 that story, in email, and I'm mis-remembering. It was bizarro-world. Guy just went ballistic, claiming that anyone who said that they coded in a regular text/html editor was a liar, yadda. He also, in another thread, ranted on and on about Sigil, because it doesn't have word-processor-like features (like...like using Styles, in Word, for example--a multi-select/change feature). In that one, I told him, that's what regex is for, but he seemed to think that I was simply nuts.

{sigh}. I've told Amazon several times now that just because they asked me to contribute to those forums doesn't mean that I have to abide there and take abuse from crazy people. PLUS, hell, it's been what, 5+ years now, since they asked? I think I've MORE THAN fulfilled the request, IMHO.

Oh! AND, I had some nutjob--a guy who constantly posted in weird haiku--start chasing me around "real" Amazon--their retail website--posting replies to my REVIEWS. My KForum user name, and my Amazon username, are not the same, mind you. So, this bozo went out looking for me. He got it into his head that I was a publisher, or that I was posting paid reviews, something like that, and started attacking me all over AMAZON. I mean, creepy much? Thank heavens I talk to ECR, and got that handled, but...really???

(And people wonder why Internet-based business don't have actual OFFICE street address on their websites and invoices.)
