You were the one who threw in a gratuitous personal attack about your fellow Freepers.
If you think the live threads lack "substance," perhaps you, with your vast knowledge, should join them and set everybody straight, rather than sneering at the people who post on them -- and behind their backs, to boot.
I beg to differ. Nothing in my comments can be taken as personal, and certainly not gratuitous (Webster "not called for by the circumstances or insolent"). I do not call the others names, or slime their character or intelligence, or question their heritage, or suggest they go elsewhere.
Critical yes, but not personal. I said the postings were without much substance, not the posters. The first is critical, the second would have been gratuitous.
