It's at this point that threads usually get derailed and because a preschool-level bitchfest between two people.

Thanks for posting Mockery,
I happen to have a low bullshit tolerance and so I fought back. You are right on the money with "simply be mean instead of in jest", that's exactly what I'm talking about. Mocking yes, preferably utilizing a sense of humor; but being told I am
an awful stupid retarded fag, etc, etc, etc for mixing Hong Kong Fooey and Iron Fist in a photoshopping forum was more than I was going to take. You can call it 'justice' you can call it macaroni for all I care, it just pissed me off enough to do something about it instead of simply leaving like most people who get that treatment do.
I think my question has been answered satisfactorily, if anyone wants to read my PMs they can PM me and I'll send them, truth is I'm tired of this shit anyway. The point was to get someone who cares about how their forum is being hijacked by ass-holes to take a good look- mission accomplished. Now I will do something positive and post on the improvement discussion.
