I know that Flame is defined as some sort of "gladiatorial arena" where Zoners can cheerfully bash each other's brains in, etc. etc. etc. And really, since Doug can handle himself, I have no problem with your post on that level.

I do, however, need to set some limits on the choice of weapons to avoid damage to the premises. Your attack on Doug has overtones that suggest the possibility that your future might hold an intimate familiarity with terms like "slander" and "libel", and I don't want to get any of that on the Zone. Please drop this line of attack. Thank you for your cooperation.
