Re: It isn't the motive I question, it is the effect

Of course it upsets me when I others being belittled, (I don't think this was the intention with DQ), and if I did, I would have said something.

" As this is a public forum, when I clearly see other people publicly judged and criticized, I feel a need to speak up and try to make it stop. What upsets me is when I see personal judgmental statements made, such as the ones made in this post about DQuixote, and if you disagree with anything I said there, I'd like to know why."

I do disagree with you, in that as I said above, I do not think this was the intention of the poster, but it really is up to DQ himself as to how he saw the intention of the poster.

Now I have a question for you Mira. I have seen the very nasty way in which 129589, and myself, have been attacked by others on this forum, and you (who say that this sort of behaviour upsets you), have not said anything about this.

I would direct you to the comments by RyanD, IC, and the other numbered person. Why the silence with these posts, I don't understand. Do you see attacks on DQ differently to attacks on others? Do you not want to defend these attacks because no-one else does, or do you believe that it is acceptable to personally attack some posters, and not others?

I would also like this to be a civil place, it is a support forum, but there cannot be one rule for some, and another rule for others. Either nasty behaviour is called out in every case, or this will become like many other forums, where its all about personalities, and not about the topic at all. I'm very glad you want the same thing, perhaps we can both make a concerted effort to do so :)
