the use of "peasant" can be used in a jesting manner (aka "Annoying Peasant") but when it is mixed with a tone of actual malice? no.. we're not 4chan or similar "troll" site.. no user or admin should be implying other's lives are meaningless.

I think that example is probably one of the more extreme and thus appropriate as a first example / warning (via demotion) - however, even the guilty need some way to try and defend their actions:

preferably out of this thread (via message wall or similar).. because making this thread into a virtual court room is just asking for more users (both well meaning and malicious) to hurl virtual fruit at the offending party.

we need to punish but let's not put said offender in the stocks for users to abuse in turn, that'd be just a full-circle hypocrisy.
