Maerlyn, like Iron Scarecrow says, is extreme in his words, but despite the literal connotation, he doesn't mean anything in a malicious way. What I mean is, he's being outrageous in a tongue-in-cheek kind of way. When you get use to this, you see he's really more of a mischevious stirrer than anything. If there is anything he's said that you think is really hurtful, explaining how you feel in a non-personal way (that is, without being offensive) always gets a good result from him. He's actually one of the more interesting members if you read his posts with a tongue-in-cheek attitude.
