This was just following your rules where the rules said Do not carry arguments from one thread to another, argue on the original thread

That is making it personal and the result is flame war.
Discuss the issues all you want, but stop making it personal.
It is making it personal by pointing out that someone is breaking the rules by carrying arguments from one thread to another? Interesting.
Removing 108 on this thread requires removing the posts which comment on it and the ones which caused it which are all "making it personal." That would make this thread look like Swiss cheese. It would be more efficient to lock it for "childish behavior."
hmmm.... so removing posts is not good — and yet this has been done on other threads instead of locking them.
