I realize that this is a YMMV issue, but personally, I will rejoice if and when you raise your on list behavior to the level of JDGs.
Or would you argue that...
- asking questions
- asking to back claims with proof
- criticising someone for refusing to answer questions
- criticising someone for refusing to back claims with proof
- criticising someone for backing out of a discussion to prevent being
held accountable for his/her own writings
- criticising someone for launching full-blown personal attacks to
silence opponents
- criticising someone for maintaining an air of moral and intellectual
superiority over pretty much the whole world
...is inferior behaviour compared to...
- refusing to answer questions
- refusing to back claims with proof
- whining when someone criticises you for not answering questions
- whining when someone criticises you for not backing your claims
- backing out of a discussion to prevent being held accountable for
one's own writings
- resorting to full-blown personal attacks to silence opponents
- maintaining an air of moral and intellectual superiority over
pretty much the whole world.
I realise this is a YKMMV issue, but personally, I will rejoice if and when Giorgis raises his on-list behaviour to the status of mature behaviour. But quite frankly, I do not believe it will happen.
