Either way I hope that all can agree that the moderator has the right to delete any attempts at psychoanalysis on an open forum. Again, PM's should be used in a case where you are burdened for someone's health.
I was not trying psychoanalyze Harold. I am merely pointing out that I see some of the signs that us lay people see when there are problems that are not the actual actions observed. It says that there is something needed that this forum cannot handle.

And that is exactly what I was saying. It cannot be hashed out here on the forum. I do not presume that it is the case and then claim that it is. It might be that Harold is simply being a willfull irritant. But somehow I doubt it. And if I am right, he needs 2 things. 1, to willfully deal with the forum rules, and 2, get some real friends (offline) that can help him work with his issues. I said that I don't think it is proper for it to be on this forum. Did something I said seem to say otherwise?

But if I am asking for anything, it is to lower the attack rhetoric while insisting that the forum not be treated in the way it has been (and at least partly by Harold). I'm not giving him a free pass. And I'm not presuming to psychoanalize or be the one with the skill to help him (if I'm right). I just see in the manner of his recent actions clues that more is going on than the recent actions. I can't say it for sure or know I am right.

But I guess you think I should keep it to myself because even saying what I did out loud might be construed as psychoanalysis and should be deleted by the moderator.

Sheesh.
