Personal insulting is not for me.

I don't have an issue with those who do, I merely refuse to join in.

I am curious as to what you mean by "personal insulting," because it doesn't seem to me to include sarcasm. That would be contradictory. You do engage in sarcasm.

I remember making a comment a few weeks ago about you not being the kind of person to make disparaging remarks about people. Within hours of saying that I found myself proven wrong when I saw you doing exactly what I said you didn't do. Apparently I forgot that you did, from time to time make disparaging remarks about people. They just weren't the kind that were deeply insulting. I can give you credit for not making deeply wounding comments but you're no saint if sarcasm and disparaging remarks are above the threshold for "personal insulting."

Admittedly I do use sarcasm and jibing where the situation is suitable.

My point though of solid, directed personal insulting is not something I engage or have any need to.

Making a disparaging remark whilst debating a topic is most definitely not the same as directed continued personal insulting.

BS. I dont think ive seen such a hypocritically inaccurate statement in a while.

Are you trying to say you dont try to personally insult me? Seriously? to the point of saying crap about my dead friend and wife? What a liar you are.

sarcasm is not something everyone understands...I also can be sarcastic and you would b e surprised how many take it seriously..so in future maybe highlight.. sarc.. just for those who dont get it?? but always manage to get the insults.. some are over sensitive I agree but some are also just plain daft and take everything to heart...

I dont know if its the mods or maybe even a more grown up type of member [we can live in hope] but I think the boards are quite moderate these days..
