A couple of sentences in a foreign language directed to others
by name is certainly not bad manners. For those who might have an interest, but are unfamiliar with the language in use... try Google or Bing translators...my comments were not directed to
you by name, I simply remarked about my fond memories of two tours in Italy to two acquaintences who have shared the same experience. Get over it.

According to who?
Twice in one thread? How many times in this thread have you offered only criticism? versus a single comment where you offered what seemed to be advice, and even that appeared to be fecetious?

Your criticisms have bordered on being a "personal attack" on contributors, and
THAT IS specifically prohibited.
I have successfully enforced "manners" on this forum for nearly a decade and a half... It is the best gun-related collector forum on the internet, bar-none. From more than 11,000 registered users, less than 25 have had to be banned. We operate under "rules" not "opinions."
If you have a problem with a member's manners, direct it to me, Ed Tinker, VLIM, or John D.
If you want to make your own rules, on forum participation, or manners, you will have to start your own forum. This forum is filled with friendly people from all over the world and all polite activity is welcomed. Danielsand and my comments were courteous in nature and directed to specific posters. There is no mandate to use PM's for such activity. Nor is there a requirement to provide a translation for people to whom the comments were not directed by name.
If you don't like what you read here, then you are not obligated to read here. End of Story.
