QUOTE([2]Nekked @ Jan 17 2005, 9:26 AM) think...about it this way.. don't say anything to anyone that you wouldnt like to hear yourself. like i remember someone calling me a bitch.. and then i called her a bitch and she got all uppity about it... you may think you're just "stating your opinion" but if you KNOW it's going to offend someone, and if they didnt straight out ASK for your opinion, but you say it anyways because it's "funny" or "amusing," THAT'S member bashing. You're disrespecting the other person, and while you think it may be funny, it can also be hurtful to other people. and i believe most people in members photos.. ok i know everyone thinks people just post pictures to get compliments... but hi.. what if you just took a lot of pictures and wanted to share? that doesnt mean you're looking for compliments or any other opinions.. it means you just wanna show people. so just because they posted their picture, doesnt mean they asked for your opinion, neh? similar to how i post my work up or i submit skins.. i submit them because i think people will enjoy them... i don't necessarily care for your opinion; good or bad. and dont say anything you'd be afraid to say in the real world  Well said, Trish. Couldn't have said it any better. |

QUOTE(Jan 17 2005 @ 7:13 PM) my definition. bashing is claiming bad facts on another member. opinions start with "I think". <span style='font-size:9pt;line-height:100%'>hm.. so members should be allowed to say anything as long as it starts with "i think" or "i believe?" that's pretty concrete, i'd say. anyone else?</span> |

QUOTE(krnxswat @ Jan 17 2005, 4:25 PM) You need to take your own advice. oh? where have i ever deliberately insulted someone before they even did anything to me first? hm? can you show me one example? just ONE seon ho; if you can quote me ONCE, i'll agree with you, but yknow... 50/50 photographic memory... why 50/50? because i dont remember EVERYTHING exactly... i remember conversations... most things in writing... sheet music... choreography.. i think my chances are better than yours, wouldn't you agree? rofl and i certainly never say anything that i would be afraid to say in real life. remember... it has to be a personal attack.. meaning i would have to say the persons name or direct it to them in an obvious manner... if i keep them anonymous, it doesnt count. and if they actually asked for an opinion, that doesnt count either... there was this one chick who asked if she was ugly and i said yes. |

QUOTE(actionrobot_go @ Jan 17 2005, 12:31 AM) I dont believe that createblog-gers should be allowed to say anything that they'd like in forums. there has to be a line, but I also think that people need to have enough maturity to handle if someone were to call them chubby. this is only the internet, it's not reality. wow the noobie speaks  i agree with this person. its just online...it hardly means anything. people shouldnt be so sensitive about it. |

They cross the line when they say something bad about a member.
