Thread Name: An Apology to Damien Barber
Subject: RE: An Apology to Damien Barber
Liz, it's OK I think. I was one of those who asked for the other thread to be closed; this one does not discuss the incident (at least not yet), but rather muppitz' action in raising the issue. It is generic at this stage, still - and I hope it remains so.

I have been meaning to start a thread on what is, and what isn't, OK for us to do in such cases: For example, it surely is OK to report it. But at some point we cross the line between simple discussion and mud-slinging. Where is that point? What is acceptable? etc etc. Perhaps we can use this thread.
