No, I'm describing SGU.S. I'm not a member at GW and never was. My comment had nothing to do with GW.
Please provide evidence of me "bashing" anyone. I attempted to discuss things
logically with Yoshi in one thread. The fact that I referred to him as an idiot
within the context of that discussion (he also referred to me as "retarded") is hardly bashing. But no matter because every discussion I have had that you consider an incident of "bashing" has been couched in a well thought out argument in regards to the thread topic. The only other person I can recall name calling with was "fruieater" who did turn out to be a troll and who attacked several members of SGU.S for no reason at all (unprovoked, he told OM1 to fuck off). So, clearly, you are accusing me of things that exist only in your mind.
My my my Lilith, defensive much? I never claimed to be the arbiter of what is considered "bashing", in fact I mentioned it so we could define what it is means on this forum. I'm not looking to swear at someone
for no reason, which would be bashing. I am looking to engage in communal debate and discussion with people who can intellectually defend and define their opinions, which
isn't bashing although you desperately want to define it as such because it suits your agenda, whatever that is.
As for who defines "intellectual cowardice", yes, you're damn right I can define it. I know it when I see it and the fact that that term bothers you so much pretty much justifies my definition of it. If a person isn't an intellectual coward then they will defend their stated opinions and beliefs on this forum (and no, they don't have to be an intellectual giant in order to be treated with respect). It's very easy to understand. Please stop recoiling from terms you don't like simply because
you don't want to be labeled by them. A thing is what it is;
entities have defining natures and a person who makes statements on a discussion forum but then runs to a mod and cries that they are being bashed when asked to defend those statements
is an intellectual coward. You may care to define the term "intellectual coward" differently but that won't change the veracity of how I just defined it. A coward is a coward is a coward and calling that intellectual coward out for being an intellectual coward is not bashing.
No one is demanding that anyone "fight" here Lilith and that is the flaw in your reasoning. If you don't want to engage in discussion then don't respond to anyone who comments on your statements. It's called 'free will', Lilith, and everyone has it. There is nothing compelling a person,
against their will, to respond to anything stated on this or any website. If you choose to engage in discussion by responding to anyone who comments on your opinion then that is
your choice. The bottom line is that just because someone challenges your stated opinion and you don't like it that does not automatically make it "bashing".
And to be honest if one doesn't wish to engage in discussion about the topics on this, or any, forum then why even bother becoming a member and posting opinions? It's ridiculous to assume that one can do this and then be "protected" from having their opinion challenged.
Now, on a more personal level I have to say I don't know why you have a problem with me Lilith? I've hardly engaged you in conversation much and can only assume you consider me part of the "enemy camp" from the whole Rac80/Yoshikart drama. Clearly you have chosen to bring that drama here by angrily (yes, your post to me was angry) accusing me of "bashing" people on a different forum. Obviously you haven't noticed that this forum has a different tone and feel so please lose the anger and the attitude you have with me as I certainly don't deserve it. It short:
Let it go, Lilith. It's a new day and a new place with a positive outlook. Please don't be the one who ruins it simply because you have some personal axe to grind.
Thanks.
