A bunfight? Oh No!

I was seriously disappointed to see that a thread asking for input on MiL behaviour has been deleted as it has become a 'bunfight'. When I posted my 'twopennorth' this morning it did look as if some posters were getting a bit lively and frothing at the mouth, but clearly in the last couple of hours everything turned so nasty that GN have deleted the whole thread. I have witnessed this happening once or twice earlier in the year. Is it getting worse? And does relative anonymity encourage some to spit bile at other posters? The tone of one or two comments on this now deleted thread reminded me of a poster of some months ago, but the name was different. I feel as if a good friend has slapped me - I just don't like GN descending into this!

People can be very perverse.

Interesting idea Trisher. I wonder what the key words and phrases to use might be? Pity Shoezone, onesies and daps have already been used.... (wanders off pondering)
