You do not have to direct a personal attack towards someone for it to be a personal attack. For instance, when Raphael Drake insinuated that I was a pedophile via an image that used my words but did not attribute them to me, we deemed it to be a personal attack.
Likewise, when someone creates a thread for the purpose of calling out another member, or members, they are making a personal attack.
