When people feel that a forum rule has been broken, they frequently report it to the admins or voice their concerns publicly. He actually did. You were attacking him and therefore breaking the forum rules. Also: All members are protected by the forum rules. You're not the one being attacked.

You're the one who's obsessed with Maurizio. Saying that another member has a mental illness is a personal attack. You've done this repeatedly. I will politely ask you that you stop breaking this fundamental rule of our forums. Thanks.

JWFan was born 25 years ago today! Hard to imagine back then that the site would still be up and running two and a half decades later, let alone that the Maestro would still be active after having composed nearly thirty more film scores and a similar number of concert works, as well as conducting over 200 concerts including Vienna, Berlin, Milan and Japan! Dozens of his film scores have received perfect releases during all this time, providing fans with the confidence that many more will come in the future, while maintaining and further enhancing the collective appreciation and admiration for the music we all love and which will remain with us for the rest of our lives. The analysis and discussion of his work has reached such level of comprehensiveness and detail, that our forums have become an essential reference for fans and scholars, while fomenting the creation of fascinating projects that expand and deepen the study of the Maestro’s oeuvre and contribute to increasing its appreciation by future generations who, without doubt, will continue to ensure that his name is in the place it deserves in the history of music and cinema. Thank you, Mr. Williams, and thanks to all those who have contributed during this time to make the site such a wonderful place. Here’s to 25 more! PS. The following quoted post, written for this thread 10 years ago, provides a short summary of the origins of the site:

Wikerman's post comes from the old thread which was pinned for months, somehow redundantly. This new thread has been provisionally pinned in order not to affect the visibility of the discussion, but will eventually be unpinned.
