Quite funny.  Too bad that it is also quite sad.  You tell me when
reporting bugs affecting AUCTeX users that there is no priority to fix
them because nobody else complains about them.  When I tell others to
complain to you instead of to us, you accuse me of "inciting to riot"
and declare that you can ignore reports regardless of their number.

Is this supposed to be 忠義 or 悌?

I asked Artemio to report his problem, possibly including a screen
shot for illustration.  You consider bug reports abuse, before you
even see them?

That certainly explains a _lot_ about your past replies to them.  And
I thought it was just my unique talent of phrasing them.
