Well that is interesting double standards you have. If I was McJ, I would feel insulted by that last comment. He set up this site for serious discussion that was unhindered by authoritarian mods. Its people like you that de-value it!
Its like saying: well killing people is wrong in Britain because I will get punished for it, but in Africa life is cheap so its OK to kill Africans in Africa because there aren't any laws to protect them.
Thats is not how I work. I use the same moral code everywhere, regardless of whether there is a law or not. Its the same on message boards. I treat people with respect even though there is no rule forcing me to. I only change my behaviour if someone seriously insults me, which in this case they have.
