    Am I just saying too sensible things?

    The Abortionists try to argue with me, but I don't enjoy permitted personal villification unless I can slag them back. Which for some odd reason I'm not allowed. Literally, they get away with murder, that lot. Just no fun at all.

    So why don't normal members argue with me? :confusion:

    The secret to dealing with posters who resort to personal attacks is to report them rather than respond to their postings. Just DON'T respond but do report them. As for why nobody will argue with you, perhaps you are not posting things that people are taking exception to. Go ahead, praise Barack Obama and I will argue with you.

    The thing about responding in posts to personal attacks is that some posters WANT you to slap back at them after they have deliberately provoked you. That's when after having set you up they turn around and report you for having attacked them. Then you get dinged with a warning or an infraction while they sit back and laugh at you for having taken the bait.

    Unless it's housepaint, he deserved what everybody said to him.

    Threatening mods and such, psh.

    The report button is your friend, it helps keep the forum clean.

    Normal... what the heck is that other than a subjective state of mind? What is normal to one will be anything but to another.
