He's not interested in recruiting YOU to FSF so don't expect a PM any time soon. But why not have a little fun - here's what he probably was looking for but couldn't find:

I'm sorry to have kept you waiting my friend, I have a slow connection Wink
Since you don't know what a PM is, I thought I'd help you out and post one here as an example:

Subject: Regarding your message
I received a PM from you some time ago with a subject like "A rant about a gamepad-controller".
I deleted it straight away - never read it. It means, I have no idea what it's contents were.
I look at my inbox a little bit like my house. If a visitor arrives, I expect him to knock on the door and ask politely for permission to enter.
If instead he smashes in the door and tries to behave as though he owned the place, I won't waste my time and get rid of him quickly without much talk or room for argument.
Including the word "rant" in the subject line I regard equal to trampling in the door upon arrival.
Whatever it is you wish to convey, approach me with respect and I'll treat you with respect. You're welcome to PM me like any other Flyaway member, though as I just explained, I completely ignore junk-mail, I won't even open it and that is regardless of who the sender might be.
However, after this blow to your ego, I don't really expect you to PM me again. That would be too embarrassing. Instead, you'll trundle off to the forums and drum up support, you don't strike me as one who is able to fight his own fights... and once you've established your support base, you'll start stalking, probing, provoking and spoil for a fight.
I will use a platitude here: 'There is nothing new under sun'.
Finally, I assure you, you won't ruffle my feathers. Whenever I feel that things are getting too silly and childish, I just ignore posts, yours or anyone elses for that matter and I suggest you do the same.
Have a good day Sir.

So now you now what a PM is. No need to thank me my friend, you deserve all the credit. After all, you were the instigator.
After re-reading the paragraph in bold type, wouldn't you agree that I was spot on with my assessment... including the "stalking"?
I know you love this kinda gossip Cheeks, don't we all
But it gets better... just sit back and watch, Sheriff CRJ will blow his bugle as soon as he reads this and all the little boys from FSF will come swarming over here like locusts and join in the flaming and bashing.
And a jolly good time will be had by all
