I think I can sum things up.

1)Chuck should not have sent an email to Rene to pressure him to raise prices. This is a sucky thing to do to the rest of us. I give this wrong a 7 rating (10 the worst)

2)Rene should have handle the situation privately. Although he has a right to post Chuck's email, it's something I would not have done. I give this a 5 rating.

3) Chuck should not have attacked Rene on the bb. I mild rebuke would have been palatable. I give this a 7 rating.

4) There should have been no more posts by either Rene or Chuck on this subject. This is a split vote: 10 for Chuck and 8 for Rene. I give Chuck the extra 2 point since he outposted Rene.
