Be Kind to your fellow Freeper.

Yes

I agree. I try hard to acknowledge people who have replied to me, it’s a kindness and a courtesy even if we don’t see eye to eye on a particular subject.
FR is still the best place to get a big picture of things from across the country and world.

But (yeah, yeah) ...eh, not worth it.

The intelligent ones will figure it out.

[Lazamataz]

I love my fellow freepers.

To the point of being swollen and engorged.

Good Advice (imho). Reminds me of my failings. I’ll attempt to do better.

[Magnum44]

And when the comment is stupid, just reply kindly...

:)

Not responding to this.....

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

OK.

[NonValueAdded]

Be kind to your web-footed friends, too.

[BipolarBob]

What a cruel thing to do, forcing people to be kind. The next thing you know goodness and cheer will spread next. How dare you inflict this on people clinging to their bitterness. It’s all they have left and you wish to take that away too? it’s this thing here that ruins movies. Take Dickens A Christmas tale with the hero Ebenezer Scrooge and they turned him away to the Good Side. I have to turn the movie off near the end because of the sad ending. I cannot bear it.

[Obadiah]

What! Why I oughta...

[AAABEST]

Let people know you care what they think and are not indifferent to their existence.

I understand striving to be a kinder, better person.... I myself need plenty of remediation in that regard.

Seeking or yearning for affirmation/confirmation from others - especially internet people - is woefully misguided and weqk minded.

Save for the ones I know personally, I couldn't give a single f what any FR thinks about anything.

[Alberta's Child]

I am conflicted about this.

I always like to reply to posts here, but I've been told I have an annoying habit of "always trying to get the last word." LOL.

First time I've heard of what the "+1" meant, but I agree with you--our forum could use an injection of civility. It feels significantly different than when I first joined...over 25 years ago and I don't feel nearly as connected to the other users (or the site, for that matter.)

Still, we can all use some positive affirmation at times.

[pax_et_bonum]

Agree.

Well said. This is NOT Democratic Underground, we don’t need profanity or threats of violence against anyone.

Many FReepers put a lot of effort into thoughtful and informative posts but with so many of these types of posts there are not enough hours in the day to respond to them all.

It would be nice if there was a LIKE button to acknowledge a good post, but this site hasn't been upgraded since the 1990s so not expecting that anytime soon.
