"The personal stuff has blown up to the point where I don't know if I can bring it back to civility. I probably lack the requisite communication skills."
Then enforce the TOS where it talks about "personal attacks"
If you lack the "communication skills" then you should go by the book. Attacks on me for taking "meds" (by RR, mimur and EC) as if doing so might impair my ability to render an opinion is a TOS violation.
Did I attack members of RR's household for taking meds? I happen to know that they do.
How about you Dave? You take meds don't you? I happen to know you do.
Matter of fact there is probably no person here that does not take "meds" of some kind.
The difference is when some lowlife loser implies that someone taking meds is doing so because they are somehow lesser mentally than others in some way. That is a personal attack and falls into defamation of character which runs rampant on this board the reason being is you are protecting those who you think you can make money from while allowing others who don't make you as much to be attacked.
What about Botox, my dog we had to put down? Go back and see the very unkind comments that RR made a few times about the dog meant to inflict hurt on me? He stoops so low as to attack a DEAD DOG? Sheeeesh
Sorry Dave but you have tolerated the illiterate childishness from those three stooges for too long, one of whiich almost NEVER comes around here except to take a cheap shot at me. You don't need lessons in communication, I think you need lessons in applying principles EVENLY no matter how popular or unpopular it is to do so. I don't think you would make a good school teacher or a court judge.
Example, I notice OGI is jumping on me over this. Ask him who started the PERSONAL attacks? Ask him if he wants his medical problems, family including pets brought up in a demeaning way.
"a) Using the Service for illegal purposes or for the transmission of material that is unlawful, harassing, libelous, invasive of another's privacy, abusive, threatening, harmful, vulgar, obscene, tortuous ("tortious", "tortoise", etal) or otherwise objectionable.
Its all very simple. RR owes me and the board an apology for his immature reactionary PERSONAL attacks |
