If two pseudonymous board warriors simply trade insults, it is crazy for the people concerned to take it to heart. They would be better off considering that unless such threads have at least some humor and originality, they just come across as childish and boring to anyone within an IQ bigger than their shoe size.
But recently this line has been crossed a few times, with knowingly false claims being made about webmasters and/or the programs they represent. And whereas you can choose whether or not to reply to someone who just calls you names, you pretty much have to waste time defending yourself in such cases and even then some of the mud may stick. That isn't a trend anyone should want to encourage.
