Tamar,

>I think that the Sysops doing nothing when there are personal attacks would be a terrible thing to allow. There are choices in between doing nothing and freezing threads or locking people out. How about having Sysops speak to offenders to remind them of the rules of conduct? Do you really want the UT to be a place where anyone can say anything to anyone else?

I, for one, don't want to see that. I come from a tradition of 4 generations of Stevenson men -- two preachers and two editors -- who fought their battles with well-formed ideas and eloquently expressed words, and *never* had to resort to profanity or personal insult to do it.

While I would prefer to see the existing rules enforced, I must insist that they be changed if they will not be enforced. Then the inevitable downward spiral can continue honestly and at least there will be integrity in that unfortunate direction.

Or, perhaps instead of that, the level of intellectual expression will rise and the attacks will fall. *That* would be most welcome. We can hope, can't we?
