[rpd] More confusion from Noah

[Murungi Daniel]

Dear Paschal,


I agree with your sentiment (not the sanctimonious bit). 

On the other hand, clearly you missed the ‘for giggles’. Some nations drop nuclear bombs on perceived traitors, our forefathers used arrows, poisons, and public floggings as a deterrent for treachery.

Now on a serious note - for clarity, AM NOT calling/advocating for violence of any kind (physical or verbal) against any member. 

But burying our heads in the sand and believing the greed and desire to make a quick buck will magically disappear is wishful thinking on anyone’s part. We already have one ‘member' blatantly suing AFRINIC (and by extension the AFRINIC community) yet they are in clear violation of the purpose for which they were allocated number resources.

Additionally, changing the original subject of the thread in an attempt to disparage a member is not only morally bankrupt but a violation of the CoC. Shine your self-righteous torch on that.

It is a privilege for the region that AFRINIC exists in the first place. The number resources managed by AFRINIC are positively changing the lives of engineers on the continent (Kudos to all the members using the number resources to deploy infrastructure and services in the region ). I know a number of people comfortably feeding their families simply because they know how to configure and route an IP address. 

Some amongst us continue to present false narratives on the RPD and twist the CPM language in a bid to prop up their AFRNIC crippling and resource grabbing policies. Is it not each member's responsibility to fight this in order to ensure that the masses within the region actually benefit from the scarce resources allocated to our RIR? 

Regards,
Murungi Daniel

Your rethorics of violence, war and dirty expressions does not sit down well in this discussion and does not promote a healthy atmosphere. There are various ways you can probably show support or defend Noah. Toeing your line for me is not morally sound.
