Vacation. Time to reflect on what is important and what isn't. After that, if he want's to come back, we will welcome him...

I have a question: What behaviour of Pakistani posters will cause equivalent measures? You can't take from one and leave it to others, right?

I don't think it is the behavior of just Pakistani posters...everyone has the same golden rule: Be respectful of eachother. I am not getting why this is so hard to do. It does not matter if one is from Pakistan, India, the US, UK or Estonia - just be nice people.

If protecting our integrity and reputation is considered being politically correct, then I suppose that could be considered accurate.
