Its very interesting to see the differing viewpoints. I guess there is no easy solution.

Quote from Joe
It's still true that the very best way to deal with flames and abuse is to ignore them, to act as if offensive posts were invisible.
End of quote

I agree with Joe personally - by far the best way to deal with it, however some members can't seem to do that and get drawn in to the point where they can't stop.

So, I am going to go to bed and enjoy a good nights sleep :-) Hope you all do as well :-)

Thanks for all your viewpoints even though YES and No was all that was needed. :-)
