This thread has been locked as it has moved beyond debate into argument.  The site policies are quite clear on this - more here:

Apologies to Anton who was just seeking some advice.

Differing views are perfectly acceptable, but the way these are expressed matters.  Being rude, making personal attacks on others and circumventing the swear filters by altering letters in swear words is not allowed in this forum and members can and do get banned because of it.  The moderation team try to prevent this by using the personal mail system to advise members where their behaviour might be crossing the line.  This is always a polite reminder of the site policies and is intended to prevent more serious steps being taken, such as warnings or bans.  The mail published on here was in fact a response to a member reporting a post and nothing more.

A lot of moderation work goes on unseen by forum members, but due to some of the comments previously posted in this thread, we have decided to be open about this particular case. 

EDIT by Admin:  The most offensive of the replies have been removed.
