There is more than mere name-calling going on. There are some who are spreading baseless personal calumnies when they cannot rebutt an opposing opinion point-by-point with specific facts and opinions of their own. > I think the Goanet moderators should do their best to aggressively nip such personal and abusive attacks in the bud and send them back to the poster for re-consideration. There's only a small handfull of posters you need to watch, INCLUDING ME - though my excuse is that I never initiate such posts, but reserve the right to respond in kind. > What I object to is when you allow a scurrilous post on to Goanet, then reject a response to that post. > In future, in an attempt to assist the moderators in what is already a daunting job, I will refrain from responding, and will bring any abusive posts that I see to the attention of a moderator so that the errant poster can be warned. To be fair, other Goanetters should keep an eye on my posts and do the same. The deal is that the moderators will take such corrective action. >
