It has become torture to read your posts.

This is good. For it will give us an opportunity to see if Mick is serious at all about enforcing his politeness policy on this forum.

Oh I'm quite serious about it. But it's a fuzzy line, and I err on the side of letting things stand. See lee's posts for example

You mean, the same Lee you banned for saying unapproved things?

You used this definition of torture:

... the act of inflicting severe pain (whether physical or psychological) as a means of punishment, revenge, forcing information or a confession, or simply as an act of cruelty.

Re-written, it would read: the act of inflicting severe psychological pain as a means of forcing information or a confession, or simply as an act of cruelty.

I simply read your definition and opined how it applied to many of your posts. I wasn't being impolite.

You're not an easy read.

Why? Bad grammar? Frequent misspellings? Boring subject matter?

You could always just skip over my posts if you honestly find them to be the equivalent of torture.

Awesome idea.

You poor thing, you. Having your errant ideas about the world challenged must be such a traumatic experience.
