Murdoch:
I have been here since 2004.
I don't think he talks down to me.
May I say I feel there is a huge difference between talking down to someone and insulting them.
There's no need for insults.
I don't believe anyone here is untouchable, unless they are a mod, and I don't believe he is.
But even then (and I must say here IDK how DIYnot works) some forums have someone policing the mods. Because after all, if they are posting as well as modding, they should be moderated too.
Every other forum I use, the mods are clearly labelled as such. I believe that should be the case here too, but that is obviously a decision for others.
