Let me refine my statement.
Some abrasive things are going to be said by the nature of ego and argument. If we punish people for these things without good reason, we are teaching some people that they have the ability to simply lash out for no reason, and expect someone else to deal 'justice' for them. In undead's specific case, he said true statements that were taken poorly (i used to hate undead btw). When he was equally attacked by others ("undead psychopath #1 for example") there was no retribution for those actions. If the goal is to have a sanctum, 'justice' should be delivered evenly, lest we educate some people that they can do what they want without rebuke, and give them a false sense of entitlement. Demonwolf and some BoB members, simply because undead is a popular target, are going to learn that they will be 'safe' from undead's jibs (and can attack him without fear of reprimand) and also that as long as they have friends in high places, that they are protected. My proposition is let these people learn that there is no such place as a safe haven, and let them come to grips with fighting their own battles. I understand this is not a democracy, but 1cap has started to make a lot more sense here recently.
