I think PMs and complaints to admins would be a more appropriate way of dealing with him if he's violating forum rules. If he's not, then I'm pretty sure you are. To be frank, if I was Chad, I would complain to admins-- though I doubt he will bother.
Why not practice what you preach and use the appropriate channels if you think anyone is violating forum Rules, instead of using open threads to do it?
And so your response to my hypocrisy is to do the exact same thing?
I considered recommending that Chad complain (I doubt he would), but I felt that it was worth airing this publicly, as it wasn't so much a rule violation as an irrelevant response to this thread. Surely, if someone is saying something irrelevant to the thread, you can say, "Stop trolling. Your ad hom attack is irrelevant to this thread."
That being said, the horse has been sufficiently flogged at this point, so I suppose it's probably /thread.
