Please as a non-native English speaker to another non-native English
speaker, you may miss that this comes off extremely aggressive and
offensive especially in text form. And this is a public mailing list,
everybody is allowed to intervene in every thread -- if you don't like it,
take your discussion offline. There is no need for some language or
behavior, while I can understand being mad at Paul, the community, or the
world, please make a minimum of effort to keep communication polite, and
efficient, as stated multiple times. Belligerence will take you nowhere.

That is not how it works, you cannot indefinitely veto a patch just because
you think it is invalid. Your concerns in the first email were addressed in
Paul's reply.
In the other thread, 3 people verified the presence of the bug while you
insisted it wasn't there, while also confirming the patch is valid.
If you can provide further counterpoints to Paul's explanation, please
share them instead of silence, if you have anything substantial (code wise)
to add please do so, otherwise let the patch in. This bickering on the list
cannot continue.
