Gents, do we really need these sort of comments on here? I have found that when an argument or 'discussion' gets to a personal level, you have usually lost.
When the comments start following posters around the forum on subjects that have no bearing on the original thread then it has, in my opinion. gone to far.
This I see happening, how long till this migrates into the open forum?
As a rule of thumb, anyone that begins name calling, cursing, and especially calling into question any given persons intelligence as a means to defend their position has in fact, just lost the argument forever more. If their position was strong enough to stand the light of day, it should do so in a civil manner.
Understand civil does not mean politically correct, it means just what it says, civil.
Firing back at someone who broke the peace first with name calling with the same in kind does nothing but drag you down to that level along with the conversation as a whole.
As a whole, this thread should be summarily deleted so the rest of the world doesn't read this thread and think those participating are all as unprofessional as the post here implies.
