I just recieved a email from an anonymous poster here on TB.
This was not a threat in the sense of the word, but disturbing enough for me to mention it in public.
I'm well aware that some of my ' humor? ' can be often caustic.
I try to do this only when I get involved with a poster who I, and others, have arrived at a point where I feel it is hopeless to make any kind of exchange in an intelligent way. I will continue to be " My Own Sweet Self ", as Miles Davis once said.
PW
PS...By the way, I invite this individual to join us here in public, to discuss any issues.

Sorry to hear that.
The best way to handle this is to report the offending post or PM to the admin or a super-mod like Chris Fitzgerald.
Best regards,
François
P.S. I'm no longer a mod on TB for your information.

Actually, this person didnt accuse me of being insulting. ( damn it! ).

I personally enjoy your brand of sarcasm, except when I'm hosing coffee through my nose because you're so f*cking funny!  |

Its a drag. Says more about the person who sent you the message then anything about you, IMHO.

Thanks, man.
