Kevin some examples:

"As for personal attacks, I somehow misconstrued that bit in Teribus 28 Jul 08 - 01:38 PM as a personal attack directed at Shimrod:

I have never heard such self-pitying drivel in my entire life, I would rather hope somebody shot me before I came out with such crap.

I suppose it's all down to how we interpret the term "personal attack".

How about:

GUEST,Shimrod - PM
Date: 28 Jul 08 - 04:09 PM

For a start, Teribus I don't have to defend myself against people like you - f**k you and your scorn!

OR, How about from the same post:

(38 years of my life, Teribus, you a**hole!).

Now for some reason MGOH sees neither of these as a personal attack – Rather strange, don't you think?

Oh Kevin, could you possibly explain the following sentence of yours:

"Actually I was referring to Teribus's personal attack on Shimrod, when he sounded off against things in general in a non-personalised way."

Can you please explain exactly how you can make a personal attack on someone in a "non-personal way", sounds more than a tad contradictory, and a bit daft to me.
