Going for the whinorama record today, Elmer? It's always good to throw in an ethic slur while you're at it. Charming.

Elmer, I think we're being a little too harsh on Mani. All he wanted was a thread where the discussion over AMD is polite and free from personal attacks. What he got was more of the partisanship that no amount of moderation can ever solve.

And the game of personal attacks merely rose to a new level. For example, getting banned is now considered a badge of honor, as well as getting someone banned. And I must admit, I played that game as well when I got Win Smith banned <G>:

The uncanny thing is that the Mod thread has a lot of parallels with real-life politics. Scumbria once said that "Everything is politics." I refused to believe him then, but these days, I see some truth in what he said.
