Please, call me a jerk in a civilised way that doesn't break the rules
Allthough I agree with you that no rules have been broken, I can understand the FR staff's decision to close that particular thread.
Maybe a firm "this can go on, but we're watching" would have been better, but I don't see the locking of that particular thread as an awful decision.
When confronted with this particular thread, most moderators would feel more than just a hunch that it had the potential to become nasty.
I see your point, but this thread seems like the worst possible example to defend it.
Disagree on the "social worker" part. Sometimes you have to.
Now, this is an interesting statement. What's your suggestion then? If Warman opens a thread to have himself flamed, then let it happen? He asks for personal attacks, so let there be personal attacks?
