> [@Helmut\_Doork](#): > > Spoken like a true gutless wonder! You invoke my name here, and when I respond, you turn tail! This is a thread for accusations, not for litigation\*. Now that does mean that on occasion posters will suffer unfair accusations, but no litigation also means no sentence. So it’s not a big deal. And a surefire way of making a bad impression is getting all huffy and try to turn the table. \*doesn’t mean litigation doesn’t happen of course, but it’s an annoying distraction to those of us who see this thread as a noble quest. (No, really, it’s a noble quest, not a place to let off steam because we can’t reply to shitty posts directly with “you’re a shit”.) ---

> [@Helmut\_Doork](#): > > That’s the best you could do, BIRD brain?.. > > Bird brain, take note, this is real wit. Pointless name-calling is so far from what this board is about that I’m embarrassed for people who desperately stoop to it. This has happened before in this thread, and I think we should point out to the ignorant that “Trolls R Us” is not a challenge, not an invitation to try to show us that you’re the biggest. ---
