I don't think there's anything wrong with some good natured teasing. I get teased quite often on the forum and just chuckle. There is a difference between a gentle ribbing and accusing someone of being an anti-semitic, delusional scam artist. In fact, an apt joke can sometimes make someone realize a point more than trying to hammer them with dry facts.
Frankly I don't think that many of the threads show you as being quite so diplomatic, but people can check that out for themselves, I won't bother digging up old stuff.
Yes well, you ARE a moderator and an adult, so maybe it would be cool not to send out winking posts of agreement when people make random and useless flame-type posts. You don't have to be sweet, but you could take some responsibility.

Come on man. That wasn't a flame. That was a joking way of saying what you generally seem to do. Every time a claim is made you have to challenge it in some. Be it a benefit of FR or a negative consequence of circ. Therefore, it seems to me that you view yourself as some authoritative figure.
You also comment on reading comprehension, and feel the need to "clarify" everything. So you either think that most people here are stupid, or are very young. Judging from the emotional trauma that you suffered at a young age, I would guess it is the later.
Henseforth, "nanny" and "kids".
I know you don't agree, and that you feel justified, and will never stop, and so on and so forth. But you have to see that it has been very annoying and frustrating for the actual restorers for whom this was created for. I think you can deal with an occasional joke. This is not a court of law, and people aren't going to be "diplomatic". This is a forum, and I type messages here in pretty much the same fashion that I would speak to you.
