Personally, I'm astonished by two things:
1) that any abuse towards bummer was able to continue, and
2) that the abuse bummer has directed towards Texrat is being tolerated as well. (Given that he evidently didn't even have moderator powers over that thread, I fail to see what more he could have done...)

For G-d's sake, folks, this is supposed to be a community. Communities are supposed to work together. This sort of "I know better than you" mishegaas is just not necessary.
