(1,823 posts)First of all, it was not MY point that couldnt be explained, it was another poster upthread. Im *only* referencing what someone said in reply to that poster.
I see posters being very careful to NOT break forum rules, and other posters appearing to try to get them to do just that.
I could get all linky, but maybe that would put me over some line too.... Basically, a post said something like "Just look at the usual suspects here" or something similar, and the reply was "Be specifc." (i.e., name names, which would count as calling out members.)
This post was similar, i.e., " I suspect you have an agenda" (pretty tame, though maybe sidling up to the line) followed by "Oh, do get more specific and ascribe a specific motive to me" (in violation of the same rule.)
Maybe I'm wrong, but thats what it looks like to me.
Its kind of sad that the jury system here, coupled with people who will call almost anything a "personal attack" has led to so many obtuse posts where people have to dance around to try to express their feelings. It aint beanbag, and IMHO we should all be able to be passionate about our passions.
