The problem is when aggressive and nasty posters’ comments are nasty and aggressive! Too many of them, this thread has many illustrations.
Well sometimes debates do get a bit warm.....but it should not become nasty by eliminating posters who disagree....better to back away and get a handle on ones-self when it gets too hot...then come back into the ‘conversation’.
There’s been a couple times where I’ve told a poster to knock it off when they’ve clearly gone over the edge of respectability. Might be others should do likewise when you see the name calling etc gets in the way of the debate...which when used evidences the poster has run out of their argument.
