Well, I've been on the receiving end of it. Apparently I am not in the camp that's allowed to chat all night with impunity. Being among the disillusioned, I am only allowed to shut up and vote.

Are you still complaining? < /shrieking caw>

That's why this business I'm reading now about group hugs and reasoned debate is ringing very hollow.

Yeah, after a thread turns into a Lord of the CyberFlies bloodbath -- with the attendant glee and high fives via Freepmail, and near a dozen posters were banned or asked to have their accounts closed, and the gaggle has flapped off to find new carrion -- a few posters remain to kick regretfully at the ashes here.
While I appreciate that, it's going to take a long time for the ugliness to abate in this forum.

Do you have any comments on my posts?

Why dont we have a password protected area in which to hack this sort of stuff out?

If the real problem here is promoting one party over another to the world, would it not be better to have a members only area in which to allow the ongoing personal attacks?
