Re: Discussion about The Lounge in \'About the Forums\'
I'm going to reply to this thread now with my question...because I feel I am missing something.
While I agree that some threads are locked far too soon (and I said so in ATF)...Have I missed people being ridiculed in the Lounge? I have honestly never once felt as if I was being unfairly attacked (though surely i've felt disagreement of opinion, which is good!). WHen I first came to the Lounge I expected it to be a snooty area just because I figured to be one of the younger posters willing to jump in on the topics I cared about (I think I'm one of the younger...?) So has there been in-forum Lounge hostilities that I have just been missing in my time away from the Lounge? It seems like everyone is afraid of that... Note: I am distinguishing locked threads from what I am referring to. Locked threads aren't usually personal attacks as much as hasty moderation trying to clean up the forum. |

I've sometimes been terse in my post about why I locked a thread. That's been interpreted as rude a couple times.

i killed a new poster once, just to see him die...so, maybe it has something to do with that.

The Lounge is about discussion without personal attacks. We even had a civil discussion in this thread, where I was purposely provocative.
The Lounge is awesome and it's my favorite forum on 2+2. |

The Lounge is about discussion without personal attacks. [/ QUOTE ] That's been my interpretation as well...and the main reason I love it (though the fact I can actually remember posters and their personalities helps too, OOT is too big sometimes for that). I don't know what I feared, and while this may be the same reason some don't post things (self-conscious or afraid)...it doesn't strike me as a reason to change a winning formula. |
