Irrespective of the rights and wrong of why the individuals found it necessary to target Texrat and myself, it's not right that such threads should run unchecked on this forum. At first the threads can be amusing but eventually they become tiresome and unnecessary. Fortunately such threads are rare and the introduction of the new rules should make little difference to the day-to-day running of this place. Only when someone wants to pick a fight in cyberspace will it be necessary to bring a swift end in order to maintain the high quality discussion that is possible here. EDIT: Added Karels quote as two other posts snuck in before I finished typing... :) |

^ wiser words were never spoken. Thanks for the sobering reality injection into a lot of misinformation.

I could take your post as your belief that MY OPINION is not based on fact or worse absurd. I can see how some could take this as a personal attack. If your not part of the solution then maybe you're part of the problem. Notice I avoid using declaratives in response to another's posts. :) Edit: Same reason as Milhouse, above. I also see from others edits how my math abilities are now in question. :) |
Re: No room for Personal Attacks
*sigh*... I see my relevant points were completely and summarily dismissed so you could "prove a point", YoDude.
So your position is I should not be allowed to participate in a discussion where falsehoods are spread about my participation here. Sweet. Ironic, too... and if you're going to stretch the "personal attack" definition that thin, you're in danger of hypocrisy in labeling me. My definition of personal attack is the blatant, unwarranted type. But if you view what I said about absurd remarks as a personal attack, then I sincerely apologize because that was not the spirit in which it was intended. Ah, speaking of examples: THAT is how you distinguish a true personal attack from remarks intending far less harm: an apology and subsequent alteration in tone. Not too hard for adults to understand and master, I'd think. |

Re: No room for Personal Attacks
Could you point out the line in which anyone suggested you should "not be allowed to participate" in any discussion? I missed it.
