The rules specifically say EXCESSIVE flaming/personal attacks. Unless it is a flame war, it is a false report and nothing will be done.
I don't think we should refer to it as a PA. PA can mean something like Public Announcement, or something so much more useful. I think if the flaming is meant to hurt the user, and is a very bad flame, then they should be warned/banned for it.
Ming what's your definition of a personal attack?

They could at least get a warning for hurting another user...

Yes, and you find it to be one single post. My definition of a PA is here:
http://buildism.net/forum/Thread-Personal-attacks
From what I last saw, Qwerty said you spammed due to your caps.
From what I last saw, Kieron only called you a hypocrite and there is already proof of that in your leaving thread itself.
From what I last saw, calling you a noob is not hurtful nor a PA.
Neither were excessive.

This is the official definition of a personal attack: http://buildism.net/forum/Thread-Personal-attacks
Calling someone stupid or a noob is not a personal attack. However, it is considered flaming, which is still against the rules, but less severe than actual personal attacks.
