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. |
Like I said, people should mind their own business. It's real simple to just report a post like the one you just used....and let the mods and/or admin handle it. The problem is NOT the person who said it....the real problem starts when others try to tell that person how wrong they are.
As for intent.....who cares what the intent is? Not something we should be judging constantly....I don't think we really know it .. not REALLY. People just think they do. Irregardless, what is it with people who chomp at the bit here to correct others?
Someone said this some time ago...I think it was Lynzy and it was great:
"Post and let post"......just like "Live and Let Live"
