Correct, one thread where Texrat was the target of abuse - and direct abuse at that. Also don't forget the same thing happened with Sap also targeting Texrat (and me too for that matter!)

Irrespective of the rights and wrong of why the individuals found it necessary to target Texrat and myself, it's not right that such threads should run unchecked on this forum. At first the threads can be amusing but eventually they become tiresome and unnecessary.

Fortunately such threads are rare and the introduction of the new rules should make little difference to the day-to-day running of this place. Only when someone wants to pick a fight in cyberspace will it be necessary to bring a swift end in order to maintain the high quality discussion that is possible here.
