"IMO...would do well" is no instruction nor command - just advice
the Judgement (that there have been CREVO threads with greater civility) seems to me quite just.
I *do* have a dog in this fight - this kind of thing can easily flare out of proportion, things can be said that can never be unsaid, and hostilities become entrenched like unto those of the Balkans.
Many of the participants on both sides of this fracas are on the One Ping, and this could lead to a sundering of that list.
This outcome I would prefer to prevent if I may.
You are 'emoting' a tad, IMO.
Carving up ping lists because of THIS?
If I was to complain about every time I'd been pissed off by singular post I'd been pinged to by multiple-ping lists....well....
Not a good excuse, Prout.
