But imo, having that message would tell that poster to cease his/her posting of such vile messages because we at Mudcat are aware he or she is doing it and in no way do we condone it.

Any response to the "vile" messages feeds into the egos of those who post them. It calls attention to them whether intentional or not.

Now, what the fuck are any of you doing that you have the TIME and DESIRE to read about every little bit of editing which is done on this site???!!! One would think that is ALL you come here to read.
