Nice attempt to play moderator and jury. Just another part of the dysfunctional nature of this forum.
Have you contacted https://www.bullying.co.uk/ ?

You are a moderator? I no longer wish to continue in this line of interrogation. I will consider further replies harrassment.

No, I am not, and that's fine. BTW, "harassment" only has one "r".

But I have had trouble remembering that for decades, especially because of "embarrassment", which has two of them.

[On a side note, in some cases I think it's more practical to put the punctuation outside of the quotation marks, inasmuch as we are not dealing with little bits of lead type on the internet.]

You have been reported for a tos violation. We will see if they actually take action.

Yeah, they rarely moderate anyhow which is why we have a core group of screwed up abusive personalities at this site that eventually drive others away.

Don't you try to form a rapport with me after threatening to report me.

Please do follow through with that report. Thanks.

I thought this was the purpose of the Site Idea: "Moderating the culture of abuse"

This whole issue has really been an exposé on how we should handle perceived abuse. Clearly alerting a post is the way to go, and to temper one's frustration if moderation isn't as swift and forthcoming as we would like. What is not okay is to go to an unrelated forum to seek retribution. That would be akin to being offended by my next door neighbour and then storming down the pub to shout abuse at the barmaid.

Clearly that was not the issue since initially I did. I did three times, started a thread about it twice and only after the second thread, this one did something actually happen.

I am generally a good guy and do not post just to put people down so I do not understand those who do. There is no reasoning with that kind of person.
Hah!

It is absolutely true. Abuse me or make false accusations then I will not pull punches. This site really needs moderation so people do not have to put up with crap like that.
