"I asked mopinko twice in that thread to take her argument elsewhere. "

That was a completely unreasonable request given that the post itself Mopinko was responding to is here, in this forum. Where else would you expect the response to be? If you felt Mopinko's response to you was a personal attack you should have let a jury decide that, and if they let it stand you should have too. Frankly I don't think expressing the level of respect you have for someone is a personal attack at all, but that is beside the point.

This isn't about taking anyone's side. This about allowing differing opinions to be discussed. You seem to want this forum to exist only as an echo chamber and I think that would be a huge mistake.
your forum seems to be primarily a marketing tool for an outside blog really nt msongs Feb 2012 #1
