If Rogue, Ben, or anyone else places such a disclaimer, it can only be presumed that it's a request, not an enforceable demand
It is to be understood as such. My problem is,my postings are being used out-of-context to start a flame-fest on some other forum. I don't remember the specifics, but when I added this disclaimer it was because of exactly such an incidence.
He clearly expresses that he's speaking for himself, not his company. If such a disclaimer were not there, it would be presumable that by making such a request, that they are representing the official position of their company
I'm afraid the finer points of this disclaimer is incomprehensible to certain characters, because I often hear sentences like "so is this the official stance of Hyperion" when the disclaimer clearly states otherwise.
I guess no amount of disclaiming or stating-the-obvious will protect you against willfull misinterpretation.
