They have no problem hurting the good names of others, however, Ladislaus is the absolute worst offender. Maybe you have no problem with those things, but I do. I also find it reprehensible to treat an elderly woman, the way Myrna has been treated. Anyone who could behave that way towards someone like Myrna, even disregarding her age, must be of the worst sort.
I haven't seen this either. And why didn't any of the hundreds of members report something like that to me? There must have been some witnesses in the thread. Maybe it didn't happen? Help me out here.

Matthew, I remember seeing the post that Mabel may be referring to here, but I cannot be sure who was the offender. I only know that Myrna was the victim of vicious comment which surprised me coming from man to an older woman. It was a personal attack, not an argument being presented. So for what this comment is worth - probably not much - I thought I ought to say that Mabel is not the only one who saw it. It was remiss of me not to say anything at the time.
Regardless of age, every person has a right to be respected and not to be attacked because somebody else thinks them stupid or whatever.
:cheers: Boy this thread is fast moving! Before the cement dried I got a thumbs down. Is that a first?
Thank you, Nadir.
I don't know how many posts are reported on here, but if the number of people who speak up when something vile and unjust is posted is any indication, there is a lot that goes unreported.
It wasn't just Myrna. Nado and Ambrose were both accused of being women. That went way too far, no one said anything! Speaking of which, what happened to Hobbledehoy, Lover of Truth (yes, I know he was a bit annoying but he is not a bad man), SJB, Michael93, sunbeam, Luker, Mithrandylan, Thomistic Philosopher and so on, even Charlemagne and TKGS have barely posted. Maybe they are all busy but look what they have in common...
I'm not going to report every post that violates the rules, it isn't my job to police CI, but that doesn't mean I have to be blind to the fact that it has significant problems at the moment and at times. Before the Feeneyites became (more?) unhinged, it was actually a pleasure to post here.
