Mr. Rude is back. This time, with added histrionics. If ET is unwilling to require its public representatives - ie, the mods - to adhere to some level of civility, then please allow us to put them on ignore so we don't have to read their non-moderating-related posts/nonsense. Either that, or create a separate mod nick, and they can separate their personal and "professional" lives on ET themselves.
Is there anything forcing you to read these posts? Do you lack the self discipline skip a post that is written by someone who offends you?
