That fine.  It's really your site, and you can run it as you wish.  We're all big kids (if only jr. high level), and know what our options are.  I filtered the guy straight to the trash, so I'll just leave it at that.

Tom,

Benevolent dictatorship.

I don't read all the posts. I only check on threads that don't interest me
when they seem to run for a long time to see if there is a problem. If the
thread has gone off topic or is getting hostile, I simply ask for the thread
to be wrapped up and most members are kind enough to comply.  If allowed to
go on uncheck these types of threads totally destroy the value of the group
for the majority of the membership.

Some don't get the first message or don't realize I am the group moderator
and persist. So I follow it up with a stronger message. If it seems abrupt,
my apologies but I really don't feel like spending much time of this sort of
thing.

If a random check picks up an individual flame I will e-mail the person off
list and remind them of group policy. I have no interest or intention of
wading through all these posts trying to figure out who is to blame for
what.

This type of situation tends to make me short tempered and remind me why I
quite teaching junior high.
