"For what I have read in some of the comments posted to the Webmaster etc, is that some of the same people who are causing such disharmony in this forum have caused similar problems in some of the private forums also!"
This has changed now that mods can block posters from single forums. Before our only option was a site wide banning. So it is an easy thing to correct now.
Your forum can be kept "tidy" where your views can prevail.
Name calling from all sides has to stop in Support Forums as it is disruptive.
Having your own forum will remedy this, otherwise I will have to begin hiding disruptive posts (from all angles) as this is not a debate forum but a support forum.
