Oh, my goodness, how difficult email is. I was quoting Hagrid in the 
first book. 

I was not saying that you shouldn't get physically in front of me.
That phrase is usually meant to mean "in my presence", in this case, 
in my cyber presence, but also is a statement meant to display 
loyalty. Sorry I wasn't more clear.
