The emotional cost - not to mention the time cost - of stopping a fellow contributor from directing abusive language at another contributor has always been rather high, but it has reached a new high of late.
By defending SlimVirgin against what FuelWagon HIMSELF conceded was an "accusation" (his words), I find myself hauled before the arbitration committee. I am told that I must say something in MY DEFENSE, with dark hints of un-mentioned adverse consequences to me if I just leave it alone.
For what its worth, FuelWagon has now turned Jayjg's ArbCom candidate question page into his own personal battleground. FuelWagon's "questions" span five sub-sections, have dozens of diffs and are filled with endless rhetorical statements. However, this doesn't even begin to compare with the 16 section response to his RfC a while back: ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_comment/FuelWagon_2).
Ed's right, the system's not working here.
