That was what got me- the personal attacks on his and TKE's part. Absolutely inexcusable.

Not my point at all. The debate here (on this thread) is why UNF_Pike got banned (and, to some extent, why the other two didn't). Although the lines can blur, there are substantial differences between being disrespectful and being downright offensive.

Don't try to read something between my lines which isn't there. I'm not a proponent of either of the above, but my comment has nothing whatsoever to do with respect -- it has to do with a difference in intent. Two are making an argument (whether you agree or not), the other was simply trying to be offensive.

That, to me, is the reason he is gone and the others are still here.

I don't agree with UNFSX and TKE -- at all -- but I think there is a big gap between them (Well, at least UNFSX -- TKE pushes the line) and UNF_Pike.

I will agree that personal attacks and name calling have no place here. That's why I think TKE is pushing the outside of the envelope.
