let me remind you of your own post to Suzie Q in this very thread.

I've been subjected to way more personal abuse over the years on the Spirituality Forum than here. There is no significant "opposition" to my posting here on the General Forum. I don't see my posting on any forum as "getting away with" anything.

Do you remember saying the aforementioned?
Yes, of course, I remember saying it. And it's not "personal abuse", you silly billy.

Wouldn't that be left up to the personal interpretation of the person it was directed to fmf? The person may consider it "personal abuse", where you or I may not. 🙂

I usually stick to the matter in hand. Although I can be robust and rather candid, I rarely - if ever - resort to "personal abuse". So I think your characterization is mistaken.
Oh, nooooooooooooooo, you'd never resort to personal attack 🤔 🤔 🤔 😆

It was just three statements. It was not "personal abuse" in any shape or form, just as this reply to you is not "personal abuse".

I can be robust and candid, if that's what you are referring to. And my candour might not be to everyone's taste. But I cannot remember resorting to "personal abuse".

OK I agree with you, so if one considered they had been "personally abused", wouldn't they alert the post, and let the Site Moderator decide on it? His/Her assessment hopefully would be unbiased right?

I don't alert posts. I think everyone's true colours should be left there for all to see. Meanwhile, the mods have the right to do whatever they want.

The Moderators only moderate as a rule when the post has been alerted, or they see something that is really against the TOS, then it will vanish quicker than g-b-s's hair.

EDIT: No malice intended g-b-s, I have noticed my hair line is back a little further than it once was, only a matter of time. 🙂

Have a look at the EDIT, I am sure g-b-s will take it in the good natured way it was intended! 🙂 😛

My apology if I hit a nerve there Andy! 🙂

LOL....If you say so Andy, I believe g-b-s will be ok with what I said or throw a remark back at me, he isn't as sensitive and out to get me as you are my old friend, of course I use the term very loosely! 😉

Why would you bother saying what you did if you weren't? Why would you be jumping over everything I say you feel is out of the way or a personal attack on someone? Never mind the we lets just discuss you for now! 😉
