Well, both. All mods should be equally applying the rule. There rule should be designed so that no guesswork is allowed - that is the only way to insure uniformity. Certain words should be allowed, and certain words denied. If a word isn't a classic insult, then I don't see why one person's opinion should dictate what is or isn't an insult. And, really, this should be limited to school yard style insults.
As for specific mods, as you can see, catzmeow didn't show up in this thread. I think what's quite obvious is that this was a personal issue directed at me involving political differences.
The last alleged "insult" deleted on that post was "your master Bush" - again, that can't be proven as an insult. There is a completely logical argument that citizens are de facto slaves today and the politicians their ruling or master class. If you can debate a point, then simply declaring it an insult and issuing a warning isn't justified.
