Maybe he already came back and was then banned again...

I'd take MMF back in a heartbeat over whatever Puckluck's 5th or 6th iteration will be.

I have never really had a huge problem with any users. There was one infraction from long ago, I think MMF was extra snarky or I took it the wrong way. I forget. The only thing I can’t really stand are drive-by trolling posts, or wall of text posts. Peter was particularly frustrating to read because he would start with a drive by post to get some bites and then go into full blown semantic debates with CHL. I am sure they are very smart, but those posts were a chore to read.

There are lots of ill formed opinions out there. I know I don’t always hit the mark with every post and can come across in a way I never intended.

But really the only issue I have with any poster on here are those very few who seem to live on personal insults and going out of their way to antagonize other posters. The GT’a are a good place to find them dishing out insults to other posters who say something they don’t like. The mods seem to deal with those people very effectively.

I wouldn't say there are many bullies here, if any. perhaps a few people that love to take shots at someone when people have a lame or stupid post just to show how clever they are.
I'd rather come to a board that errs on the conservative side in regards to moderation than a place where it's a free for all. as others have said, if you want the wild west and want to insult people all day long, go to reddit.

I'm just working on self moderation. I'm getting much better at rereading what I wrote before posting the reply, and then just deleting it.

part of the problem actually can be the intelligence of people here. there are a fair number of posters that have a lot of knowledge in a particular field. So when someone tries to participate who isn't as smart or knowledgeable, it's perhaps too easy to become scornfully dismissive of them.

overall, the mods seem to strike a really fair balance and keep this place one where people can feel comfortable coming to, if you have thick skin or not.

It's a serious offence. Please report to the police immediately, before more people get hurt.

Really? I don't recall CalgaryBlood having an irrational dislike for Apple like puckluck but maybe I wasn't paying close enough attention.

I’m sure he’s back now but Bertuzzied was my favourite poster when I joined the forum, also liked MMF though

Now I wonder what calgaryblood did to warrant a lifetime ban.

Not that I will miss him. Quite a grating poster when it comes to any subject.

Thats fine, it could balance out all the people who have a kind of creepy love for Apple.
