Yes it's just the internet and these people should probably grow up a bit, but they're not going to...I just think if they were given an opportunity to truly say how they felt without having to watch what they say, then it could go on for as long as necessary until they all either realised how ridiculous they were being and laughed it off, or just mutually decided to avoid each other.
I'd say there's probably...two (maybe just one tbh) members on this site that I'd say I have real issues with, if I could just tell them exactly what I thought of them, they do the same back to me, we talk it over for a bit and then be done with it, I think the problems would be over.

But there's nothing stopping people from doing that right now - the issue isn't that the moderating team clamps down on people's ability to argue things out - the issue is that people aren't interested in resolving their conflicts, they just want to take public snipes at each other and hope that the moderating team will infract the other person to somehow prove how right and justified they are in picking fights with the same people over and over again. There are so many pairs of users or groups of users who are guilty of this, it's always the same people arguing with the same people - if they wanted to deal with it like adults, they would. They don't want to deal with it like adults. They don't like each other and they want everyone to know it. Having a thread where they can show it off is just going to feed their egos, it's not going to resolve anything.
People could PM each other if it's a two person conflict; or they could hold a group chat on another website if that was something they wanted to do - but they don't want to do that at all.
