Probably far, far worse
I recognize many of the things you've been called and have tossed after you, Uther
I've gotten quite a few death-threats etc. up through the years, and in some cases they've been utterly hilarious. Best one was one dude that said that he was going to have a friend hack my computer and then he'd come to my house to kill me. The funny part of that was that his friend worked at Best Buy, and that he'd have to travel from the Midwest US to Norway in order to do so
I've also seen quite a bit of the same behavior as you describe towards some of the moderators on flightsim.no, which is a Norwegian flightsim-community for MSFS2004/FSX. The mod started to actually moderate, since there was quite a lot of bitching, personal attacks etc going on. He ended up stepping down after he had people call him to yell at him because he DARED try to keep the peace there. That you post there with your full name doesn't make the case any better, of course.
Sadly, muppets will be muppets. Most of them aren't so tough when/if you meet them in person, though.
