here's something that everyone loves: controversy. in your opinion, what is member bashing? when does one cross the line between expressing an opinion and bashing a member? or do you believe that any verbal expression should be allowed in the forums? just thinking, wondering.
edit: also, i'd like you to be honest: do you enjoy cb drama? do you believe that without drama, cb would be uninteresting? do you think that free posting and conflict makes it a better place? |

that makes sense, but can the members be trusted to accurately judge what is acceptable to say and what is not? i mean, everyone has his or her own definition of what is appropriate.
edit: and almost everyone claims to have a "good reason." a "good reason" could simply be "oh, he/she annoys me." |

Agreed. However, I think we all have enough common sense to judge who is bashing to be plain mean and who is bashing to teach a lesson.... erm... I don't know if that makes sense. QUOTE edit: and almost everyone claims to have a "good reason." a "good reason" could simply be "oh, he/she annoys me." Well, if the person being bashed is annoying on purpose and just want to create a stir, then I don't see why anyone should have to stand for it.

Yes ma'm, that's true. I don't expect people to change their personality, but I do expect them to know when they're being a cry baby. I guess, that's a little too much to expect. (random) The word "bashee" cracks me up... yes, I'm easily amused. (/random) |

(/random) haha well, i don't know. it just seems like we need to establish a concrete definition.. otherwise, the arguing is never going to stop. or maybe that's what the createbloggers want?
