OK, I'm not letting anyone have the last word on me!
I just want to say thanks to those who have sent very kind PMs about this situation- it is appreciated. I'm not going to get involved in publically criticising the moderator concerned and am surprised that he has publically replied to my private PMs to him!
I do think that this forum is becoming far too tolerant of immature children who are giving the rest a bad name. And therefore I do wish this community and Vstep all the very best. I particularly would like to thank Angus and Fred for their friendship.
Regards
Capt. Marmite.
