Ben, you can't go around threatening other forum members with violence because you disagree with their opinions, or because they call other posters names.
Let's look at the UK law on assault - "Assault (or common assault) is committed if one intentionally or recklessly causes another person to apprehend immediate and unlawful personal violence."
Now, I know there is a long tradition on Apolyton of posters threatening to beat the crap out of other posters but this seems to me to be slightly more sinister than the normal "I'm much harder than you" dick waving that normally goes on. Specifically the "armed I'd kick the crap out of you" line seemed particularly threatening.
Going to take some time to think about this one. I know there'd be a massive groundswell of support for banning Ben, but need to treat him fairly. And there have been threats of fights/violence between posters before with no action taken.
