Because you are a tarboosh-wearing Greco-Turkish lapsed Eastern Orthodox Crypto-Islamic polyglot Cypriot, that's why.

unfortunately x, some of these hostile organisms are able to mutate and end up eating up the thread before the usual defence mechanisms kick in. Necrtotahtis fasciitis boinkis is the latest strain infecting Silicon Investor.

The threads should be left completely free, imo, and management
should only step in where threats of violence or serious and profane insulting is going on.


I wholeheartedly agree. But the Whiners are bigtime attention-seekers, and very very insistent. And so the squeaking wheel...

Why is that?>>

Because you are a reasonable, sane individual. No fun at all.

I will go a step further. Complaints that do not fall in the serious categories of threats or obscenity should be sent back stamped "GROW UP".

I read some of that person's posting on Kahuna and am stunned that you and Tomasso were warned. That's ludicrous and that person is an obvious jerk looking for a fight. I really don't get it.
