Your lies are getting more and more delusional.  On the day I made the rule
I posted it to you and to Ross C, the two moderators affected by the rule.
 Ross liked the rule, and has followed it.  Roger later picked up the echo,
but he is so well-behaved that I haven't needed to inform him of the rule.
 You should have learned something from one of them.  I later reposted the
rule to you, as well as reminding you of it on many occasions.  And it is
such a simple rule: all you have to do is behave the way that you feel (as
reflected in your echo rules) people SHOULD behave in fidonet.  But you
just cannot follow your OWN rules!

~>  Ban me and I'll ban you from my echo for echo sabatoge

You aren't banned.  You got two weeks for the same violation that you gave
Sauer two weeks for.  However, now that you compound the offense by adding
a direct, quid pro quo threat in an attempt to get me to let you break the
rules of the echo, the two weeks are now doubled to four weeks.

It is hilarious that you think one can "sabotage" an echo by adopting its
rules, but that just shows how dried-up your thought process has become. 
It is even more hilarious that YOU are the one trying to sabotage THIS echo
by trying to prevent me from enforcing the rules.  And your attempt at
coercion is based on your assumption that access to an echo I haven't
posted in for several weeks is somehow valuable enough that you think you
can use it to try to bully a moderator into allowing violations of rules! 
You broke your own rules, and you did it TWICE OVER by trying to sabotage
YOUR echo as well as mine!  YOUR rule makes that a banning offense, but two
weeks for your childish threat will hopefully be sufficient.

Feel free to respond in four weeks, or in another echo.
