To anyone concerned about the lengthy-and-distasteful exchange between a couple o' members several pages back:
I received a complaint, hence this clarification. Of all the modes of behaviour pointed to in the report, only one almost breached the rules - that of physical threats. I say "almost" because none of us here believed the lengthy commute and fisticuffs were actually going to happen. Both parties revealed through their comments that it was at least a little tongue-in-cheek. It played itself out anyway and I think it's safe to say that both they and we are over it.
The rest of the aforementioned modes concerned "bad behaviour", "insults" and "immature name calling", none of which is pretty or preferable to most but they do fall within the bounds we allow of free speech.
If someone choses to come across as an asshole it's his prerogative... as long as he doesn't post porn or issue serious threats (that we believe).
You know the age-old adage:
If you don't like what you're hearing, ignore or endure it. We're all different. Different tastes, upbringings and cultures. In an environment of free speech we're free to censor what we expose ourselves to.
FWIMBW, I'm personally glad that particular exchange died the death it deserved. Plenty of entermataining stuff in this thread and no need to go there IMHO...
