The personal attacks have gotten out of hand. The criticism of people for their grammar, spelling or content has been apparent for a long time . Even some of our most decorated members are guilty of that. Maybe this will turn the page.

Good idea Trevor.


I do not see this as any sort of problem. The usual assumption is that anyone who is literate is credible due to experience or education and that assumption is general throughout the workplace and society. Typos are normal but coherence and understandable posts should be expected by everyone.

We cannot learn from one another until we stop shouting at one another - until we speak quietly enough so that our words can be heard as well as our voices.

The precise and logical answer to that is that text being text and NOT sound or voices can NOT shout, irrespective of the use of capitals.

That weird Prussian guy? :twisted:

   



roger-roger @ Sat Mar 21, 2009 6:33 pm

XD East Prussian....

   



ShepherdsDog @ Sat Mar 21, 2009 6:34 pm

Ok...That Polish/Belarussian dude.

Nah, the family was put in Russian prison camps before the change was made, techinically its that East Prussian/English guy. :wink:

My grandfather lived in Konigsburg, so techincally he would have been rebranded Russian. I have a feeling he would spit on your shoe if said as such though.

From a mods point of view, we really don't want to ban anyone. We hope that this will settle things down and cool the personal attacks. We just want everyone to be able to enjoy the site without getting attacked for their point of view just because it isn't shared by all. Everyone, long term member and newbie, deserve to be able to come here and not feel like they can't say anything in a thread that they have a view point to share. We will also be looking very closely at those who "bait" others into flaming..


I must say that I do NOT like that concept because it is TOO open to interpretation. Just because you strongly disagree with some opinion and say so openly does NOT mean that you are baiting others into flaming.

What, you expect posters to keep their strong opinions to themselves for fear of being accused of "baiting others into flaming"?


I agree that this point could be tricky to enforce without being abused.


Agreed, it will be tricky, but it has to be taken into consideration if the situation warrants. All I'm saying is that when a post is considered flaming, we will look at what came before the objectionable post also.

I think that's a grand idea.

Sorry, I couldn't find a Nixon quote about online conversations.

That's because Al Gore hadn't invented the internet yet.
