Bad temper
I've said this before, but isn't it time that those (extremely few) on this Forum who routinely resort to insults and vilification are reined in? For example, I tried to point out that a gratuitously offensive remark about the Archbishop of Canterbury, who is widely regarded as a fine man, was unacceptable. I was advised to "grow up". This kind of remark tends to debase what is generally a decent, civil and responsible set of exchanges among mature residents of Putney. It is also likely to persuade serious contributors just to walk away. I suggest there is no justification for squalid remarks of the kind I complained about. It is by no means the first, and unless a consensus develops, or there is intervention by the moderators, it won't be the last. I've heard it said that ignoring the offender is the answer. Obviously it isn't.
