: Flame me if you will, but it's not real nice to keep repeating a comment someone made in chat after that someone respectfully and sincerely requested that no one mention it, and especially after someone else tried to respect that person's wishes and get it off the screen. : Public chatroom and "just teasing" and freedom of speech and all that, there's also a thing called "playing nice." : Think I'll take a break from here for a while.

Taking a break from the chatroom would seem a reasonable reaction to what sounds to have been an episode of incredible rudeness. Taking a break from the entire community of people, most of whom had absolutely nothing to do with your issue seems less so. The board is not the chat. However, do whatever you feel you need to do to regain you equilibrium, and be well. As for those of you involved in the above referenced issue, you should be ashamed of yourselves. God knows, I'm ashamed of you. Once upon a time, folk here knew how to behave themselves. Ari
