    We have a number of posters who go way past a subjective call when demonstrating their idiocy.

    I actually enjoy most of the posters on the OT board, and really, very few embarrass themselves in terms of intellect, but still, it's more subjective call someone an idiot than pointing out what is an obvious lie.

    Exactly.

    Let the extra-sensitive folks exercise some self-control,put the frank people on ignore and we'll all win. Nobody forces them to read everyone's posts.

    Bunch of idiot, lying sissies.

    Or making an idiot out of yourself by harping about "lies" which aren't actually lies at all.

    Like this, where you called me a liar about Fox News, and then posted a link from CNN that I had posted as your "proof" of me watching Fox News?

    That was idiocy on a grand scale. Just plain stupid, actually. Glad you agree...

    Some people are easily offended and some people offend others frequently. It's rare to see someone who both offends and is offended so easily.

    I think he genuinely thinks it's healthier for everyone and the forum to have a little less animosity going on.

    The threads with the personal insults are my favorite (I know, I need therapy).

    Is one allowed to personally insult themselves? If I lie and admit that I lied, can I call myself a liar?

    To answer some of the question posted and a few thoughts.

    This thread went as I thought it would.

    Some of you acting like bad asses are some of the same ones who in the past have complained multiple times via PM's and/or flagging posts because of personal insults.

    It doesn't really matter if you can handle any personal insult thrown at you. Other people see insults so they think it's alright to insult others. Things quickly get out of hand.

    I sincerely asked for people to stop. Just because you refused doesn't mean it's okay for you to do it. S2 pretty much has one god damn rule (actually 2 if you count the no posting penis pictures of Oden) NO PERSONAL INSULTS.

    Some of you have come from sites that had no rules and those sites devolved into endless argument and insult shit holes. Some of you came from sites had too many rules and moderators that didn't apply them equally.

    I'm asking for you to follow the one rule we have here. If you enjoy S2 can you please try and do that.

    If you can't stop insulting people then posts will have to be deleted or edited.

    I'm saying please, I'm asking nicely. I don't want to see this place turn into another OregonLive.

    Thanks.
