Sorry Wardlelatic - on the face of it, this is a post too far
How can you seriously argue that to "agrue (sic) with the dedicated moderating team", or "to recite rules and regs to look smart" is wrong.
I am sure that you don't mean that it is unacceptable to disagree with Moderators - or do you ?
Equally, rules are rules, so how can quoting them be described as trying to look smart - either they apply, or they don't
I don't believe that I have posted a controversial post since joining the forum, but I can see why members might get a bit fed up with some of the posters on here who regularly post unsubstantiated rumours, just, as it seems to me, to annoy people, or get their post count up.
I do not in any shape or form support personal abuse / bullying of these posters - the "ignore" button would seem the best option - (please can someone tell me where this is !) - but, in my opinion, your, on the face of it, your heavy handed response does not add to the debate, and in fact just adds to the impression that this board is run by a few, for the benefit of a few
No doubt I will get a lot of stick for this post, not least because i don't post that often, but please mr moderator / site manager ..... don't patronise me
