I agree with Jimbo. Much as I'd hate to see RK leave the project, I feel that if he can't follow Jimbo's civility guidelines we'll be better off without him.

For every brilliant but anti-social writer we lose, five or ten will breathe a sigh of relief and thus stay with us and feel confident to recruit others.

There's also the uncounted (silent majority?) who lurk for a while, see the unpleasantness and duck out of the tavern before getting brained with a stray tankard.

I feel Jimbo's put-the-foot-down policy will help our community to lighten up and become a happy, congenial place to work together.
