Help[Opinions] four things ...
in reply to a message by chesspraline
1. If you're not talking about specific names, the Writing Room is a better place for this.
2. I am not even sure what exactly you are asking about.
3. You can edit and add things to a post so you don't have to keep replying to yourself.
4. It is very off-putting to be told by someone who has just started out posting on here to keep debates civil. It comes off as either condescending, or as a signal that you are not actually interested in opinions different from your own and that "keep it civil" really means "don't disagree with me."
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
