And FReepers, please quit attacking each other. We're all in this together.

ISTM that we are reaping this whirlwind due in part, at least, to years of relative laxity in enforcing the Posting Rule banning personal attack.

I'll sometimes see "You're an idiot!" and look at the posting history and see a few more like it. People get into habits.

And the casual use of profanity or crass words.

Used to be FR would self-censor such lapses, the poster using “##, &&” and such to break up a foul word, but no more.

“...years of relative laxity in enforcing the Posting Rule banning personal attack.”

That rule is not being enforced at all. What we have now is a free for all massacre. Dare to post at your own risk. Plus you can post to someone and someone else comes in and calls you low life names. It is ridiculous and disgusting.
