Absolutely hilarious, indeed. How could I have been so wrong???? My sense of what is "amusing" simply must have vacated me! You make a compelling argument...you really do, man. In fact, I think I will get off the computer now as my sides are just splitting and I simply must go tell the guys....

Good morning fellow Metalheads 
Freeze, I do agree with your opinion of the bottom feeders that make the occasional appearance here as well as what the band might think if they were following along the jibberish that led to this. I have pointed the very same thing out on numerous occasions as I'm sure you're very much aware.
Murray has taken a lot of verbal beatings over the years from disgruntled members and I'm sure he's had to fight the urge to respond, I admire his restraint. Some folks just can't let a bad situation disappear and continue to spew their misguided opinions of his actions (or in some cases inaction). He's the one that ultimately cleans this place up and it has to be a very time consuming and under appreciated job, no doubt.
I do, however, think that by-in-large the majority of us handle ourselves quite well considering there is no moderator present. Murray has given us a lot of freedom to express ourselves in pretty much any way we desire as I'm sure the band doesn't want him to censor their fans, which pretty much leaves it up to us to police ourselves. If it does get to a point where he has to make a public post, there's a very specific reason for it. All I'm suggesting is that we all take it for what it is as we don't want to find ourselves making the same mistakes (most of us haven't and won't).
No doubt Murray is entitled to an appology, just not from those of us that do show each other respect and handle ourselves with a little bit of restraint. More importantly, we've had a number of very young fans here that shold not be subjected to some of the threads that are here or language that is used, but that is the responsibility of the individual members as well.
No, Murray should not have to make a public post as we are all very much aware of the rules that do exist. If the remarks for which he were responding to were made by someone else, he may have very well have banned them, or the account all together, but he didn't. There is a lesson to be learned here and I hope those that all this is refering to recognize it and carry on accordingly.
I'm sorry if you think I don't feel the same way you do, maybe it's me who is not expressing myslef clearly enough as I really think I do in fact share most of your sentiments. I just don't think all of us should bow our heads in shame over this is all.
