ladycat777 used the word "most", so she's not ignoring your existence, although I can understand how it can feel that way.

And you're still missing the point. It's not the length of time given for the sign-ups - if it hadn't been the holiday season, I still would have had Shabbat. And I wouldn't have cared, anymore than members of your church would have cared. I was bothered because a major announcement was made far enough back that I wouldn't have found out except that it was mentioned on my flist, and since there was almost no warning beforehand, I wouldn't have thought to check.

...I only found out today, because of my f-list. What makes you any different?

My personal obligations, which get in the way of someone else's LJ announcement, aren't an excuse to go implying that other people are oppressing me. I'm just surprised that you think you warrant special consideration for your personal obligations.

Man, they provided a comm so that these sort of things wouldn't happen, so that no one would miss an announcement. Like me, if you didn't utilize it, that's your problem.

If you're just upset that you missed it, that's one thing. But you are basically accusing others of excluding you on the basis of religion, and now that there is understandable backlash, instead of apologizing, you're voicing your sense of entitlement.

But I *didn't*. Or I didn't intend to do so.

And I am sorry. After being under attack for *whining* for three days, to have someone who was defending me be attacked in turn was more than I could handle.

You had legitimate arguments.

Oh, so does that apply to you, as well? As in, the Yuletide mods made the announcement available to "most" people, so you shouldn't feel like you were being ignored or excluded, even though it might feel that way?

That "most" people are Christian, so that you, a Jew, shouldn't feel excluded by that blanket statement, just like I shouldn't be offended by my denomination being excluded from "most" Christians?

How interesting. /sarcasm

Does this logic only work for you when you're excluding other people? Is this really going to be your reasoning, that my religion wasn't being ignored by that missed announcement, but yours was?

That's a pretty weak argument.
