Perhaps saying "save complaints for private messages with the abusers/mods" would be more appropriate. There are certain people that have played the victim, so ti speak, but there also are other cases where complaints would be justified.
I understand why you think complaints should be done via private message, and I think at times it ought to be done that way. But I also think sometimes making complaint publicly allows third parties to read and give their perspective. Sometimes when two people disagree, having a third non-biased party get involved can help.

You guys are talking about sensible posters - people who don't need this guide. This guide is for the nutjobs that need a little help in becoming slightly less nutjoby.

Good luck, I say again. I'm well prepared for the Chewbacca Defense.

Johnnie Cochran says:
Ladies and gentlemen of the supposed jury,
this is Chewbacca:
Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk.
But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense!

Oh no you don't - I'm not giving away my strategy. You'll just have to wait for the trial.

How's about:
#25: No posting every Pope from Peter to Benedict
#26: No quoting a post with every Pope from Peter to Benedict
?
fixed?
Heh. Xhonzi must be a Protestant.
I'm not sure what that has to do with this. Protestants don't have a Pope. I am also a Protestant, a Methodist to be precise.
Yeah, I know that. I was merely expressing the presumption that Protestants are less likely to be studied up on Papal tradition than Catholics are. Moreover, I'm sure you've noticed that Protestants tend to focus more on Paul than on Peter as the preeminent progenitor of pure Christian doctrine, so Xhonzi's lil' mix-up struck me as somewhat humorous.

Nah, it was more of a thinking one thing and writing another. I did indeed mean Peter. Probably just have the Beatles on the Brain.

Is there an anti-Catholic vibe here Frink? Would it be OK to list all the Deacons of the Presbyterian Church? Or all the Rightly Guided Caliphs? Or all the CEOs of Scientology?!?
