It's all CYA........ I'll consider changing the language (to make everyone happy) when I get some time, but it essentially means what Kevin said.
"Physical, written, and verbal threats made against forum members, either within or outside the context of the forum, is prohibited and could result in a permanent ban from the forum(s)."
To tell you the truth, it was written and posted several years ago, and just adopted over here. I didn't even consider that people would get bent about it. I'll put it on the list of things to "to do", and we'll change it to reflect that language.
I agree with almost all of hat you said. But it has occurred in the past, and upon legal advice, it's in their. Perhaps not in the best language, but it is in there to stay. You are right, you can't really cover yourself, but you must try. The internet is tricky business like that.
