Isn't the phrase we are looking for here "please, don't feed the trolls"?
If Henne's going to be a disrespectful jerk, then
I'm going to call attention to it, until he stops.
One rule of successful policing, Aaron,
is not to make everyone your enemy.
Policing the world is difficult when your empire is
destroyed from within by psychopathic mobsters.

What empire are you talking about?
What are the vassal states?
When do they start paying tribute?


You are not a troll but you have to learn to respect your limits.

That I do, and will.

However, I am *NOT* going to slink away meekly just because
some guy has taken a disliking to me and decided to abuse
his list administrator privileges against me.

Henny gave me a warning once...which I will admit WAS justified.
Since then, however, every one of his further actions against
me has been for the most trifling causes.

But the last time...when kicked me off for giving someone
some marriage-saving advice...that was the last straw.


Personal attacks like the above need to be banned to allow a fruitful
exchange.

I wasn't banned for a personal attack.
Henne has repeatedly banned me over stuff that no
reasonable person would consider offensive.

Several days ago, for nothing more than advising a guy
that maybe he ought to stop neglecting his marriage,
which was then used as another empty EXCUSE to kick me off.

The other times were even more trivial.

Henne is the one who has decided to make this personal
issue.

So don't lecture ME about personal attacks, when this
guy is behaving like nothing more than schoolyard
bully towards anyone who holds different viewpoints
than his own.

Where did THAT come from?
