"Wrong? Starting an argument about another thread has resulted in the good old zot."

I didn't say you were "wrong"... But you are wrong. Starting an argument regarding another thread is not mentioned in the posting guidelines.

Continuing an argument, however, that started on another thread is considered "poor manners" per the posting guidelines HERE.

Even though trying to bully someone into silence by threatening to call the mods on them over a bogus "rules infraction" isn't specifically banned, it doesn't really scream "I'm an intellectual giant" either.

You are correct your distinction without a difference does not scream your intelligence. Well maybe it does at that.

Thanks for the ping. I see the distinction.

Like I said, I think it’s appropriate for a newbie like myself to keep in mind the short time I’ve been here (and my three years lurking doesn’t count). But I hope org hasn’t misinterpreted that to mean I will allow bullying. If he has, he’s mistaken.
