No, what you infer from the comment is different to what it implies. I did not imply anything. I wrote something specific.

My post and point was that the argument put forward by schex86 for why he/she has no problem with file-sharing is completely flawed.

Once you take the above two facts into consideration I am sure you will see that the legality or otherwise of file-sharing has nothing to do with my post or point. Therefore whether or not your assertion is "right" is completely irrelevant.

I only mentioned the legality or otherwise of file-sharing as a direct response to and in order to correct your erroneous guess that I would not want to see file-sharing made legal in the future. I only mentioned the legality or otherwise of libraries as a direct response to and in order to correct your erroneous assertion that I would have a problem with libraries if they were made illegal in the future.

Taking the above 3 statements of mine into consideration I am sure you will see that your assertion;
a: has nothing whatsoever to do with my post or point;
b: is based on your own assumptions about my attitude towards both file-sharing and libraries and not on anything I have personally posted and;
c: is completely erroneous.

Whether you were trying to "trap" me or not is beside the point.

What you were doing was misinterpreting my post and point(perhaps my fault for not being clearer), making numerous assumptions and guesses about my attitude towards both file-sharing and libraries and claiming I had made assertions I had not.(all of which is your doing.)

You have not pissed me off. I simply don't accept people claiming I am saying something I am not and seek to rectify the misrepresentation whenever it occurs.

Apology accepted.
