It's not acceptable to call anyone psychotic at this thread. It violates the no name calling rule. LOL! it's ok to make light of 6 deaths in a nice pretty civil manner, but it isn't ok to call a mass murderer psychotic? oh man, this is a joke, right? you aren't really that obtuse, are you? I guess it isn't ok to call Ted Bundy a sociopath either. Wouldn't want to hurt his feelings....LOL!

From YOUR initial post This is a place for people who have been talking about tech stocks all day to unwind and discuss whatever, including the neurotic/psychotic motivations I guess psychotic was just ok for the initial post? Isn't that special cumbdunt.com

It's not acceptable to call anyone psychotic at this thread. It violates the no name calling rule. You're not serious, are you? That comment was not directed at any poster on this thread, but was a characterization of the shooter. Would it be a violation of your TOU on this thread to say that John Hinckley is insane? He is, after all, as a jury found in 1983 or so.

Grainne, I think that Gloop calling you an ill-disguised disgusting name was a good reason to ban him, but I disagree that he violated the thread rules against namecalling, as he didn't call anyone on the thread a name and the word "psychotic" is an apt description of Mr. Vang's behavior, as far as I can tell.
