and quite frankly
1/ I can't be bothered to go around in circles
2/ I beleiev what I have said before, which is that we will see diferent things in different post, and we will not necessarily have the feelings as each other about the content

I will never be able to agree that it acceptable to use derogatory terms in public forums, and I personally find that when this happens any valid point or position is immediately lost.
In our cyber community we are relying solely on the written word and a lot can be potentially lost by not seeing the grin on someone’s face or the twinkle in their eye that goes with their words.
Which is why I have said that the interpretation of words can be a personal thing based on different factors. We will all see the different “attitudes” mentioned in previous posts, and if we discussed these there would be a difference of opinion, because that it what it is , an opinion. Yet when we have darn right rudeness or offensive name calling I think we should all stand united in agreeing that it is unacceptable.
I think Flying mouse summed things up well a few pages back

My opinion is that everyone has the right to their own opinion.Just as everyone has the right to disagree.When people resort to insults they not only make MLUKFC an uncomfortable place to visit, they undermine their own arguments.Making a coherent point with examples is one thing, but acting like a loony will only result in you being treated like a loony.It seems to me that those who throw insults round do themselves harm more than anything else.
It also strikes me that there are those who seem to disagree/agree with certain people on matter of principle.I think this is wrong.I am personally happy to agree with a person on one thing and disagree with them two minutes later on another topic with absouloutly no hard feelings.There is a world of difference between agreeing with a person,and what the person is saying.
