I presume you have both the ability to comprehend and read. If so, both of your questions have already been answered. I am not going through it again for your personal entertainment.

I won't block you but I find your attitude and behavior here distasteful in the extreme. I have never seen other rcombative behavior and surliness from you. I am open to changing that opinion of you, but I will not engage you further. Sorry, pal, show me why I should pay attention to you at all, I would like to. Youddtay on your side of the Atlantic and ill stay on mine. I will wait and see otherwise

I have no agenda, contrary to your belief. My goal and purpose today is the same that it was almost ten years ago now when I realized the problems profiler was having and the cause. Simply put we needed a set of rules w set up a common platformvfor users to contribute the same data to the central database.l. from exactly the same sourced, no interpretation or prreference allowed PERIOD, those belonged to the local side of the program. That's the simple answer, there is s more involved answer as well that I will not go into here. But the simple answer covers it.

Now if that is some sort of personal agenda then I'm a monkey's uncle. I have watched people try and poke holes in the rules within hours. On day one. My position remains the same, read the rules and follow them, don't try to interpret them, I CAN help. IfKen wants to weigh in fine, I will argue the case if I feel a need but  lens word is whatever it is, whether I agree or not conceived. Today the rules remain about 95% as they were conceived and about 92% as originally written, most changes have been evolutionary but not all.. But for you or anyone else to insinuate, and you have, that you know more about the rules than I do frankly makes my blood boil and that is when you get responses you don't like, because you don't know. That simple.

Of course you do. I'm not going to waste my time quoting the hundreds of times you are the lone dissenter in discussions regarding this database.

You have even called out Ken and belittled his clarifications - you seem to think think this database is yours. It is not.

Every single community voice has as much relevance as yours. The problem is you think yours matters more - it doesn't. Just to be clear, neither does mine.

Please stop with this nonsense. It is irrelevant and throwing out unsubstantiated numbers that the community can not check lessens the strength of your arguments.

Would you say that someone has a personal agenda if they change data, lie in their documentation notes and submits data not found on the DVD or DVD cover?

I would. I might not have joined as long as many, but I've been a member for over 5 years. I remember the things you've said and done. I remember the members who left because of how you treated them.

I have kept detailed notes on you and treatment of community members. Once I started to think for myself, instead of blindly trusting you, I found your treating me with the same disrespect. But, you will not force me out. If you don't want to read the truth - block me.

Or, how about if they bring others contributions to the forum in order to call the contributor out in public?

I would. But, more importantly so does Ken since he ruled that this behavior is unacceptable for his database.

I have seen you do these things, as well as countless others, that proves you have a personal agenda.

Your ability to read and understand the rules is no greater than anyone else.

The problem is you think believe you are better than anyone else and take offense when people think for themselves. "That simple"

Kathy was wrong in her claim, I said so, so what, she thinks she git attacked. 

Please don't put words in my mouth. I never said you attacked me - I said you called me out publicly which is why I responded.

You can call it what you wish. I call it direct and to the point and  no one knows better than myself. That's ot bragging its a statement of fact. Kathy was wrong in her claim, I said so, so what, she thinks she git attacked. Should I considerder Herr or yours an attack, I just consider them misguided because youu lack the neccessary background to know, so let's all nip at the heels of the one user who does have that information and whose only desire is to help. There used to two of us, but one left because blue got fed up with this kind of stuff. Like I said double if the shoe were on your foot instead of mine, I would be trying to ask questions of the one who developed the rules, instead of constantly nipping, sometimes he just might bite back and that helps no one.

I have asked you countless times to leave me alone and to block me. Since you refuse to do so - keep my name out  our your posts. Use "she" or "a community member" or whatever.  Do not address me by name ever again.

There is one final issue I wish to address before blocking you again - the longevity of your membership and how that makes your way right.

10 years ago appendectomies used to involve major surgery, a huge scar, had many complications and required a 7 day hospitalization.

Today it is an overnight procedure with few complications and a tiny incision.

It does not matter what was done years ago or who developed it. Times change and improvements are made which are often significantly better that what preceded it. Stop looking at the past and focus on the now.

I asked two very simple questinon and since you are unable to answer them your feelings are now hurt? Buhuu, grow up.

Do you seriously think that I give a rats arse what you think about me? On the other hand I would really like if you could answer those questions, but I now you won't, since that would prove you wrong. BTW have you noted that you are again the only one in opposition on this matter. Have you ever wondered why it is so every time?

The answer to your hypo has been given numerous times and a part of it answered in this posting. I get tired of the same game playing and having to repeat myself time and again. I will say this the hypo you described would absolutely involve a distributor supplied replacement disc without doubt and the replacement plan would be announced within days of release. So from a profiler point of view it would be a non issue almost, with a possible exception.

For a major release, sure. For an obscure title from an indifferent publisher, maybe not. Besides, aren't we supposed to ignore changes in later runs and profile the original release.

FFS. I wish Invelos would f'ing grow a pair and do something about this nonsense.
