I'm surprised at how many people here seem to think that aggressive, insulting, inflammatory posts are helpful to sensible discussion. Indeed, how many people applaud Mul's trolling.

Suppose someone else started interjecting the following into almost every thread:
- "REPUBLICANS ARE PILES OF STEAMING DOG *****"
- "MARINES ARE KILLERS AND FASCISTS"
- "CHRISTIANS ARE SCUM, GOD-LOVERS GO TO HELL"

That would disgust you, wouldn't it? Would anyone consider that a positive thing? Well, Mul is posting very similar things, just from a different angle.

As for personal information, I think it is wrong to ferret out and then post another OT member's full name, image, address, etc on this public board. I didn't see the previous exchanges involving mikez and Mul, but I did see Mul gleefully disclosing mikez's last name earlier in this thread - for no apparent reason than to taunt him. That's childish and should, IMO, be prohibited.
