I try to moderate Musket's behavior because Musket insults me. Musket insults me often, Musket has been insulting me for a long time. Same with Steve Shaw. I have found that if I am not diligent the insults increase. Max gave us the rules. The rules give me a way to counter insults without stooping to insults or bickering.
I respect Max by being whatever I "want EXCEPT unkind, impolite, argumentative or snooty." Those are the rules. That is what he asks. That is what I do.
Hopefully, over time I will not have to gently and politely remind people of the rules. That would be wonderful!
I think that it is unkind and impolite and inaccurate for you to imply that the only thing that I have to offer is endless whinges about rules. I also tell the the occasion joke and talk about hockey.
I don't know what you mean by "whinges" but if it means what I think it does, I believe that your previous post is mostly a "whinge." If whinges are a bad thing in your opinion, you may want to take that into account the next time you give me feedback.
