To mix metaphors, what you saw was the tip of an avalanche! Enough. I want proper debate to re-establish itself here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just because I tend to set out my stall quite robustly at the top of each thread doesn&amp;#39;t mean I&amp;#39;m not open to having my views deconstructed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But Wardog&amp;#39;s antics were dominating every thread. People like yourself, Chris from &amp;#39;Leaves on the Line&amp;#39;, James from &amp;#39;Two Doctors&amp;#39;, and various others — decent people with considered views and the ability to express them in a thoughtful and moderate way — were getting edged out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pleasing to see a comment from Shuggy; I greatly admire his blog. Hope to see more comments now from people who couldn&amp;#39;t be bothered to deal with Wardog&amp;#39;s excesses. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If Wardog wants to reply, he can do so on &lt;a href="http://wardogblog.blogspot.com/2009/07/wardog-has-been-banned-by-am2.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;his own blog&lt;/a&gt;.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5752826158262183491/328625105145133932/comments/default/4146877477990377342'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5752826158262183491/328625105145133932/comments/default/4146877477990377342'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.scottishunionist.com/2009/07/wardog-has-been-banned.html?showComment=1246863291161#c4146877477990377342' title=''/><author><name>Scottish Unionist</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09852056180313432298</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9wXPaJgtXJI/SOp474jhAbI/AAAAAAAAAOU/1qoVVzeJFLM/S220/scotland-uk-eu-flag-113.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.scottishunionist.com/2009/07/wardog-has-been-banned.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5752826158262183491.post-328625105145133932' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5752826158262183491/posts/default/328625105145133932' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-1961570137'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5752826158262183491.post-7027374326362192224</id><published>2009-07-06T00:59:25.057+01:00</published><updated>2009-07-06T00:59:25.057+01:00</updated><title type='text'>SU
