    Definitely.

    It seems like there are a lot of posters that have ongoing personal squabbles with each other and can't let it go and carry forward past grudges to every new thread.

    Fuck it, I say. It takes a lot more than a forum disagreement to piss me off. We all have our opinions and none of us are right 100% of the time. Not even me.

    The only one I ever had a real problem with was PapaG, when he called my 12-year old daughter a whore. That, to me, crossed a line and was unforgivable.

    Mixum was just the forum gnat. Constantly annoying, but easy to swat aside.

    Yes she can, but sorry dude. I showed her your pic and she said, thanks but no thanks, there's at least half a dozen widowers at her assisted living community with more hair and hotter bods than you.

    Personally I'm a big fan of personal insults. I find it exhilarating to call people assholes or cocksuckers etc.

    I actually thought that was a great example of this community policing itself. That thread, while not against forum rules, was universally condemned by the community. After the thread had run its course it was closed by staff. That seems pretty damn great to me. I reviewed it and left it closed but still visible to be read. I can not recall the author of that thread ever posting anything like that before. I chalked it up to him having a bad day and to let it just fade away.

    I fully admit I fuck up moderating this place all the time. It's not for a lack of trying or caring. I am always open to posts like yours with suggestions and criticisms.

    I try not to make the personal insult rule arbitrary but it can be difficult. Pretty much if I see a post using the format, "You are a ________." that's a personal insult. Some on here know that and are very creative in their personal insults.

    Again, I firmly believe that less moderation is best.

    Thank you for your post.

    Can't wait til this thread has 20 pages of posters arguing over what constitutes an insult.

    Also I am always looking for new and better ways to moderate this community while not trying to play police dog or forum dad (and while making it fun for myself.) Just today I tried for the first time microbanning, which is banning someone from an individual thread. Will it work? Don't know. But it's worth trying.

    That's fine, but it seems pretty obvious that with less moderation there will be more personal insults. So either embrace that or figure out a new way to moderate.
