"While it is anticipated that vigorous debate of ideas and opinions may occur within this forum, it is expected that civility in discourse will be maintained.

Criticizing ideas and opinions is a normal process of debate and each person should expect to have ideas challenged. That being said, personal attacks such as denigration of another person's character or value have no place in such discussions."

Many TER discussion board policies were broken in this thread by quite a few users.

Policies that were broken included name calling of members who were participating in the thread as well as name calling of those who were not. Policies regarding the use of aliases were also broken.

The thread devolved into a pissing match between a few different users and, as such, derailed to such a degree that it was removed.
