First of all, I am getting a little tired of intervening in threads today.
Second, if you believe a post breaches the FT Rules and Guidelines, please use the alert button so one of the Moderator team can review the post. If you have issues with the point someone is making, debate the point not the person.
If a fellow member causes you sufficient angst there is an ignore function that will prevent you from seeing anything they write in future.
Finally remember than 93% of human communication is 'hidden' on the internet, so nuances of tone and language get lost on a screen. Cut other members some slack when judging their words in light of this
Now, please, play nicely
