Yep take the high road.We think one way about it you feel another its not like we are debating something that important like life and death or health care that might invoke such a response.You talk about how bad boards can be with insults so what do you do, insult us!And if you want to somehow put me in the category of the member you mentioned who seems to think this place is his personal fun place to perpertrate total fictions and pompously talk of teaching us lessons you really are insulting me ,and I would not think of doing that in return here or in rep.:eek:
Lets put it plain then.
You two want members here to openly on the board argue, insult, flame, etc.
Prove to me where this is good for a board.
You ever been to a board that does this. As I keep telling you. They have very small membership and I'm talking around the 100 mark here. Even if it's just got one thread that you can do it in.
Plus how boring would it be watching two members just going round every thread posting in it just to fight and argue with each other. We are talking in all sections here, not just in talk. Because that is what happens.
You are allowed to openly debate something here as long as you keep it respectful.
So where is your argument?
Could it be that you two can't do that so need somewhere to insult members?

Really? Quote me where I said that. One place where I said that. In context. Go ahead, take your time. I'm sure you'll need it. Well, except for the argue part, I suppose. I really don't see the point of having a discussion forum if people can't argue in it.
Wait, hold on, I got a better idea...
So you want no one being able to post anything? I've seen boards where people are not allowed to say what they think without being banned, and all of them have a very small membership. Could it be that you are a fascist who want to oppress people? And you like to kill kittens?

You're not supposed to put the name of the person the rep came from you dumb-ass! That's against board rules.
You can discuss it on the board on the board as long as it stays respectful.
I do it often.

As you'll see I've been doing it on this thread.
Sorry Imagine but do you actually read and look round the talk section?
As it's full of discussions and debates between members. But all held with respect. So the only other way is to openly insult and abuse.
So I still can't see your point here.
Our point Poggy is we want no insults ,eitheir in the open or in private rep.We think the abusive stuff happens in private more than in the open.Thats the way it works in the world also.Abusers will not do the things they do in private in public.And as to our abilities to debate things without resorting to insults I think that is a comparison I welcome any time on any issue.
That's some nice dodging there, poggy. I couldn't help but notice how you pretty much ignored my entire post, took a minor part of it and extrapolated it into a position that you could find a flaw with. I think we know by now that you've mastered the straw man concept, how about not relying on a classical fallacy in your next post?

That's the point of the word private. No one sees it.
So what your saying is you never take someone to one side and argue with them. You've never insulted someone in private. You've EVER insulted, abused or called someone a name. If you haven't then your better than ever other person in the world.
Now without PM's the abuse and insults would come onto the board. Everyone getting banned or would just leave. Do you actually want that to happen at FreeOnes? Every board uses PM's for this reason as well as others. To keep the arguing off the board as much as possible.
Now most people here know I don't take much notice of the rep anyway. I judge members from there posts. So leaving me a neg rep just makes me laugh. Because they actually think that would upset or hurt me. Now if they sent me a PM we might have something to discuss. That could breakdown into a argument. But it wouldn't effect anyone but us.
Now bring this onto the board as you twos suggested before in your "if it's done in private, it should be done in public" speach. Then others get involved and soon there is a big mess of people just fighting with each other. What a great sight this board would become. With all these people bring out this issue and that issue onto the board. Great sight that would be with other taking sides just because they are friends.
So are PM's important. I believe they are.
Is rep important. Well my answer has always been the the same "take it away and see if I care!". Because as I've always said, I don't look at it and I don't judge people on it. Hence why I always laugh when people say to me "I got plenty of good/bad rep for this and that".
