Not sure what you mean? If someone wants to have a discussion about a member, it's obviously a relationship thang. I did move the Hoss thread to Tavern because that's where he seems to spend his time but as for the general membership that post everywhere... You want to get personal with other members, you have a relationship problem.

that's not really what I mean- I mean its a rule that aussie made up for relationships even though he applied it selectively but I would like to see it applied forum wide- to protect the privacy of members here

I think you'll find it's not Aussie but FD that makes the rules. If a member's name appears in the thread title, it's a relationship problem between the object of the thread and the starter of the thread.

I'd like you to explain the privacy thing.

Not sure we should need a rule - it is so obviously the wrong thing to do people doing it should be embarrassed.

It happens way too often - people should just ignore the topics.

It is embarrassing to see a topic naming someone pop up and then the same old just jumping in to add their own special personal abuse.

This is not a court of law. If you make a thread to get personal with another member, relationship problem.

So according to you a debate is personal just because there are people in it?
