G'day Thanos, "... insulting private message ..." Here's some actions that would keep such messages "private". They are not presented in any particular order; nor is there any suggestion that they are mutually exclusive.
As a last resort, read about "court of last appeal" in gods: this would now involve a few other people but otherwise still keeps it private. What you definitely should not do is respond to a derogatory private message with a derogatory public message. The fact that you did this was my motivation for this response: I have no interest in people's private squabbles. [I realise english isn't your first language, and maybe suggesting putting chlorine in one's mouth was an unfortunate translation of an idiom from your native tongue; however, chlorine is poisonous, it's been used as a chemical weapon in warfare, and putting it in your mouth can cause serious injury or death. I don't believe you were advocating self-harm or suicide.] In closing, I'm definitely not taking sides in this, and have purposefully not voted on any of the nodes in this sub-thread. — Ken
