Member Bashing:
QUOTE John Smith is a fucking douchebag and should go fuck a whale and get an STD. Opinion: QUOTE I don't know about you, but I personally feel that John Smith acts rather douchey around the forums, don't you think? I don't think I would be very displeased if he fornicated with a whale and obtained an unfortunate sexually transmitted disease. I personally think that posting the opinion part around the forum isn't technically member bashing. You're just posting your opinion about somebody, right? Not blatantly calling them names. |

"It's not what you say, it's how you say it."
My mom used to say that to me all the time. I think that's what you're trying to get at: the way you word something makes a huge difference in the way that the person reacts to the statement. If you try to be somewhat polite about the things you say, you can still get your point across. |
