"The "they ban we don't" is a flimsy soapbox. Some of the people who preach the loudest about that were in fact the most pre-ban issuers when that was allowed. Do as I say and not as I did?" Straw man arguments are an even flimsier soapbox, Dave. But now I'm beginning to understand you. Criticism is childish, you say? I submit that an inability to take criticism, like an inability or unwillingness to consider opposing viewpoints, is the thing that is lacking in maturity. Whining about it to admin only proves the immaturity, especially when the thing they're being criticized (or ridiculed) for is their own childish temper tantrums, rants and "I can't hear you - I'm not listening - you're a big mean stupidhead" whining. Not that I'm criticizing you, of course. Or ridiculing you. Wouldn't want to test implied threats. I do, however, think it's kind of funny that someone actually gets paid to call people childish for engaging in criticism and ridicule of a bunch of other people engaged in criticism, ridicule AND whining. OK, maybe I AM ridiculing. Hard to tell, sometimes. ;-)
