Making the thread "about" individual Freepers, e.g. "YOUR attempt" is also a form of "making it personal." I intervene when the thread is off-track to prevent flame wars and salvage the discussion for posters/lurkers interested in the issues.
Concerning thin-skin, "open" Religion Forum threads are often contentious and thin-skinned posters should IGNORE them altogether and instead post to RF threads labeled "prayer" "devotional" "caucus" or "ecumenical."
Thank you!
I asked you because time and time again - when things aren't going a way to his liking, a 'do not make it personal' usually follows. It's common knowledge and I'm sure the record of, at least, the past five years will back it up. That said, I am explaining my reason for asking and not making this thread about him.
Thanks. I've been off of here but keep getting pinged back and with respect for them, I answer them.
