Ty, to me a bully is one that attempts to intimidate others
or to control them in ways they don't agree to.

Given the ease with which you can make what you don't want
to see invisible I just can't understand why you wish to
stop others from talking among themselves about other things
that are very important to them.

and my experiance is these things burn out on thier own after a week or
so, unless the topic has real legs, but still there is only so much that
can be said before even the posters are bored with it
