Pedant:

A person who pays more attention to formal rules and book learning than they merit.

It that the same thing as a buffon, idiot or an asshole - other names that have been publicly called by the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team. None of whose selective editing actions against my posts are of course to be thought of as in any way personally motivated......*Smiles*

Nor those of those imposed by known 'moderators' like Mick, Jeri and kat who also post to say that wish me to be banned. I and our forum are of course expected to consider that any of their imposed censorship actions are totally objective........

And any imposed by the unknown number of anonymous fellow posters - many of whom could well form most of the usual suspects posting the usual abuse on this thread. Who knows?

This was not my battle nor my choice of weaponry but should those who feel themselves qualified to impose (by silent deletion) their pedantic judgement upon others - really expect their actions not to to judged by the same terms in return? And feel that they are entitled to respond by setting the example that name-calling is now acceptable forum conduct?
