Don’t call people names or use swear words – if you have to do that, you have already shown that you have lost an argument. The bolded text is particularly important, because that's one of your greatest problems. Can we take this post as an apology/recantation? |

That was the most fun I have ever had reporting spam on the forums. And I have never even done it before!

Stop everyone! Dont you recognize what this is? Dont you dare jump on him, he is starting his new 12 step program and he is very fragile right now. Step#1 Admit you have a problem. Now everyone back off and let the healing process begin. After this weekend of numerous flame war threads, and excellent threads on the good old days of SL - its time we all come together and heal. Highlight the positive let go of the negative. Don’t hide an insult in a rhetorical question, or package a vituperative reposte in an alleged generic statement that everyone can see is targeted at one person. Don’t question somebody’s sanity or intelligence in responding to something you disagree with. _____________________

Pendari, I can't get your name out of my head. There's just something about "Pendari Lorentz" that sticks to my brain for some reason. Everytime I see it the forum table layout, it's stuck in my head again like a song on the radio. __________________ Stay on topic. _____________________

Don't tell other people what to do, they're well capable of figuring how to act by themselves.

Pendari, I can't get your name out of my head. There's just something about "Pendari Lorentz" that sticks to my brain for some reason. Everytime I see it the forum table layout, it's stuck in my head again like a song on the radio. haha! I have that affect on people!!  No.. not really! *BLUSH* I dunno. My friend Trinity always plays the song "penelope" for me when she DJs. But that is the only song closest to my name I could think of. And I had never heard it before she played it for me.   _____________________

if people don't agree with you. say it again. and again. and again. "Sixty-two thousand four hundred repetitions make one truth." Try to offer a reasonable and rational counter-argument to an argument you see, rather than ridiculing, denouncing, picking apart, twisting, etc. someone’s sentences. _____________________

Do not argue with a person just because you don’t like them; try to respond to an idea, and if you don't really have an intellectual response to their idea or a legitimate critique to make of their debating point, don't bother to reply to them. Don’t hasten to a thread to rebut a person you’ve acquired a dislike for in another thread if you have nothing to say. Do not start a thread or a post naming an individual player, or which is really just a backhanded way of insulting them. It's against the TOS.

Be conscious that the 784 people who were once logged on this forum -- the largest number ever logged on -- is only .02 percent of the total population of some 28,000, and that only 5 percent of the total population ever bothers to read the forums, let alone what you write on them. Adjust your humility accordingly. Don’t hasten to a thread to rebut a person you’ve acquired a dislike for in another thread if you have nothing to say.

Don’t hide an insult in a rhetorical question, or package a vituperative reposte in an alleged generic statement that everyone can see is targeted at one person. I wasn't insulting you i'm simply saying that saying people can do this and can't do that is a forum suggestion as the original topic is about. You know, it would seem that these can and can't rules leaves only one response to anything you say Prokofy so why not come out and give us one more rule to abide by? "Do agree with Prokofy, no matter what he says" That'd be a much shorter list then naming everything BUT that, that we can't do. And I know you're going to yank a quote from your original post that's only loosely related to this one and respond to it like that, so don't bother. _____________________
