As Randy rightly said, this is *not* simple.


Forgive me, but there are two different and independent issues here.

One is what to do with a problematic pattern of posting.

The other is what to do about personal attacks.

It's just dandy to treat the first as subtle, complicated or whatever.

But it has nothing to do with the second, which is a very simple matter.

With respect to the tendency to think that frustration with the first justifies the latter... uhhh, no. (Though yeah, for some of us it takes impulse control...)
