Squier Posted December 22, 2010 Share I think a quote from one of the wisest of our time is in order at this point: “If we are going on like this, why don’t we go to the nearest ballet shop, get some tutus and get a dancing shop going?  20 points if you can identify the character with the profound wisdom behind this quote....

Eldron Posted December 22, 2010 Share Personal attacks occur due to one reason and one reason only in my opinion - the interwebby phenomenon called "non consequential anonymity equalisation". Non consequential because there are zero consequences to whatever you say.Anonymity is self explanatory.Equalisation because physical size plays no part as it normally does in society so some over compensation occurs. It would be quite interesting to get the same people discussing the same issues in a room together - way more civilised methinks. The very forum that makes these discussions possible ruins them. I have definitely played my part in ruining a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin will unlock once he has removed the offending comments. The last time I looked hi- jacking was not listed under general rules. Mudslinging..... Well on this post I claim innocence, read a again... I was slung. It is good that the offending comment made by others will be removed.

It is good that the offending comment made by others will be removed. Hi-jacking is a general rule in most forums and is not explicitly listed, but it should and will be.  If a thread naturally deviates in another direction no problem, but many will 'interrupt' the flow of the discussion to ask personal questions e.g. "Hey ____, how's that new bike of yours?" / or have a personal debate which should be done via PM or if need be in a separate thread.     Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
