If I dropped everyone who went after me personally, there'd be no one left to debate with. I have a very bright line, that's all.
It's probably telling that the amount of insults levied on various people here - including myself - have been tolerated by our mostly-absentee mod staff here, and that many of those same offenders are then nominated by their peers in part because that's what they'd prefer. To your credit, you've essentially avoided that sort of nastiness and appear to be able to see through it - that would make you a much better moderator on the merits alone than those who encourage and take part in the nonsense.
