I heartily disagree. For example, someone posts something like "That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard and you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about and furthermore, don't ever post on my thread again!!!" about something someone else just posted, the
intent of that poster to be nasty or ugly in their reply is pretty clear, at least to me. One can disagree with a another person's statements without being so disagreeable. The desire of a poster to one-up another poster or belittle them in some way usually starts the big problems on threads that drone on and on with zingers and put-downs and replies something like I've used as an example are usually how it starts.
