Really? Somehow this strikes me as disingenuous. Did you expect people to encourage Jade and Verne to apologise by posting that they should? You don't know what people have said to each other off the boards.
> But relatively little posting energy has gone into that. I guess the alternative are: (1) posters don't support them, (2) posters support them and don't want them to be blocked, but aren't helping them avoid that, or (3) posters support them and do want them to be blocked.
There could be other reasons. I have felt that there is something unseemly about this whole conversation.
