Ok, I can accept that and even understand the tediousness of repeating things over and over again. However, everyone of us tends to think that everything we post is permanently branded in the brains of others. Some sort of "I have spoken" type of syndrome. There is no need to go completely into detail, but, a simple. "That is not true, I have said before, in this post that other reasons existed." Still doesn't necessarily make the statement true, but, at least doesn't attempt to make the other person feel like an idiot.
That said, so what if someone thinks that TMC forced the issue? What possible difference does it make? The damm thing is almost gone and that's the important part. The other answer that you gave although probably true, really just sounds condescending. You want your words to be taken seriously then don't assume everyone is your fanbois. Almost none of us, including myself, have the slightest idea who you are and how you would be in the know. Even if we did, if there is information that you cannot be detailed about, then don't just leave a headline, don't say anything. I will again state... This is not a good old boys chat room this is a public discussion forum.
