That's what we all shoud do. But you are not one of us, you are the Chair so we have different expectations.

Really ? Do you ever judge a statement based on > who is making it and not objectively ? If we introduce a policy that will stop abusive behaviour by a certain minority of the community, *or course* those minority will cry out very loudly that they will oppose the proposal. It would be very surprising to see otherwise. Is it relevant that they are not overly happy with us trying to stop their abusive behaviour? Not very much so. Of course this requires some community agreement on what "abusive" means, so it's very rarely as clear-cut as this. I am not *ignoring* people that turn out to be abusive, violating RIPE DB T&C, or are otherwise being an annoyance - but when the discussion is less than clear cut, arguments that are brought forward in a sensible, well considered and *understandable* way are weighted stronger than yelling...
