Are you serious Inks?

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

If you look back at the threads from around 2004 or so, there are many 'personal attacks' and stuff that would receive infractions today. And yet pretty much every one of our veterans agrees that the quality of discussion was better back then.

One has to consider now if classic forum traditions like use of words like "poors" and "dumbs" and Freedom Fighter vs. Horrible Person would be infracted as "trolling" if they started today.

Agree about the HP thing, with which I was never comfortable when it pertains to a poster (as opposed to a public figure), but what on earth is remotely offensive about opebo's charmingly incorrect grammar?

Some people have complained in the past that "poors" sounds condescending. I could also ask about what's remotely offensive about asking if you capitalize opebo's name too, but apparently something is becuase I was deleted and infracted for that.

Gustaf engages in the type of "bullying" he's decrying here against me and opebo all the time.
