In my opinion the point at hand is regarding how hpr behaves, not how the harassed or harassed behaves.  Those are important points but not really the point of the discussion.

this kind of escalation seems to be common lately. let us not allow it to invade... our community is one of inclusiveness, and i have not seen the contrary, except for a brief spaceman/vulgarity moment. i feel we were civil in that instance, and we can remain so now. realize that tone and tact are left to be interpreted by the reader. paul was offering a positive thought in my opinion, while it may have been heard as callous to jason. i still have no context with this incident, so the discussion is of harassment in general. this has many connotations to us all.

        At some point, those who are being harassed need to recognize
        the fact
        that they have the power to ignore their harassers and
        recognize that
        engaging with certain personalities that conflict with your
        own as a
        complete waste of your time. Just go on doing what you're
        doing; life's
        too short to not have fun, and I for one think that we should all
        consider that perhaps those who are harassing others have
        their own
        personal issues to deal with. If you think of your harasser as
        a 5 year
        old brat who never grew up beyond the playground taunts, it
        becomes much
        easier to dismiss them as such. Seriously though, mental
        illness is a
        big issue in today's high paced, highly competitive, stressed
        out and
        drugged up world, and often finding compassion for those you
        feel are
        harassing you can lead to a long term sense of well-being. That's
        another two cents from me, I'm almost up to a nickel now. :)
