You know what Bill I agree with you that Paul is offensive to the extreme but this thread voted on the subject of twisting product names and the result was that the majority did not want to forbid it. Paul may be offensive in his scatological twistings but he is not technically over the bounds set by this very thread. If you feel that they are excessively obscene and would like to see that forbidden then request a vote on the subject. As for Pauls offensive abrasive nature and the derision that he puts forth: That is what this thread is purported to forbid. And Paul has been banned once for it. I can see why you feel tempted to debase him in what you feel is retaliation for current and past abuses but you cannot have your cake and eat it too. Is your point that you are entitled to sit on a protected thread and throw stones from some holier than thou perch because Pauls posts are scatological in nature? Either throw stones on the unmoderated thread or suggest a vote for banning here. You can't have it both ways.... Well actually lately it seems like you can but that is what I am objecting to which is the holier than thou hypocritical cries for banning when Paul is rude while he is at the same time subjected to the exact same level of rudeness from the very posters that are calling for his banning!!!!!!
