I imagine that, if you have noticed a predominance of personal remarks from UK catters rather than anyone else, it is probably because they know one another in 3d so very much more than in the US, therefore the opportunities to both make, and indeed lose, friends is much greater.

I agree it's a pity that they can't keep their differences off the Mudcat, or settle them out in the open with their names attached to their grievances and I suppose the ability not to do so by posting anonymously always will appeal to some.

I still think it's a pity that Khatt was singled out when she has done nothing wrong and indeed puts a lot of time and effort into supporting the Mudcat.
