Sweeties, i hope this is the last time we will have to go through this AGAIN. Here we all have the right to our own opinions and what we like or not, but try to remember those manners you were taught. I mean really. For the one millionth time, if you do not agree or like a topic, DON'T RESPOND, okay. To start telling what you think and why you think that in a rude way, really get on my nerves. Now just move on and go find some other topics that you like. THANX. Please try to remember this. I am really getting too old for this. TATA.

Hey hang on a minute please and explain this better to me. You are saying that if I don't like a topic that I should move on - and that is what I always do because there is no fun in posting just for the sake of it. However I can't agree that if I don't agree then I should not stop off and disagree I can do it nicely I promise but just moving on is sort of burying my head in the sand isn't it?

I confused you - or were you already confused without me lending a hand? The fun has subsided of late. I see several are missing and it could be due to the holidays. I have offline stuff which is engrossing my thoughts and I come here daily hoping to find that fun but it does seem to have disappeared. Maybe it's vacation time for some and thdn it will be back again

I did hang on my MD, but the freaking branch broke. People don't really have fun anymore. I wonder what the problem is? I actually miss the old days when we really had some good fun here. With all that agree and disagree of yours, you just confused me again. Thanx. TATA.

Disagreement should be expressed with reasonable response. Not need to be agree with everyone. We have different opinion so we are in discussion. But indecent manner is condemnable. People who goes rude have actually short of words and point. It is not necessary to be agree with any topics. Any body can oppose to anyone's opinion, but in a decent way. Indecent behaviors is against the environment of discussion.

I really enjoy reading your responses Aaleexix! You have such a way of saying things and I always find that you have said what I was going to say, only much much better! I love how you expressyourself and I have to agree that there is no need to agree, if we are pleasant in the manner in which we disagree.

@ saphrina I am agreed with you in this matter. So I am in the discussion. From my believe no where I am indecent here nor rude any way. Please don't think me wrong but my question is what is discussion? Discussion is various ( different) opinion on any topic. Please try to put notice towards word different opinion. As we have different opinion so disagreement is obviously come in any discussion. We have different opinion , so we are in discussion. We need not to have similar thinking. Through discussion we can exchange our thought and know what other people think on the matter. So disagreement is not against the environment of discussion. But the question of rudeness come when we cross the limits of word and emotion. Indecent word expressing anger to intended by personal attract to hard someone is rude manner. So we can't similarity disagreement with rude manner. I am here disagree with your thought. But nowhere I express anger. Just try to establish my point with reasoning. Will you say me rude here? I am firm in my opinion. Cool and calm in my expression just opposing your opinion. If this is considered as rude manner then how can continue discussion. Discussions are more interesting when people different thought come together and try to establish their point with proper reasoning. Finally I am agreed with your last point that everyone has their own opinion, and should have.... it is good for discussion. But we should not loose our temper and manner when we are expressing our opinion.... it is very bad in any conversation.

CT - here is my intellectual response to your "DON'T RESPOND... ". Many of my discussions are started with a view to get others opinions and inputs. They help me change my stand or opinion, or modify it to an extent. Therefore, a person who disagrees is most welcome - with his or her bagful of reasons of course. However, I agree with dumb blond that language - makes the difference!

hi, sweetie, I think you have a made a point here. If some one does not like a topic he/she can avoid responding to that discussion. Certain things-every one is aware of yet you need to just remind it.I am sure Mylotters will take it in a positive way, still I wish you never get old so soon.

I agree with you wholeheartedly Saphrina! There is no compulsion for anyone to participate if the person does not like the discussion.Everyone has a right to start a discussion ; I have seen many discussions that are not to my taste but I just do not respond to them.If there is something I disagree with then I just say so in polite terms.There is no compulsion that the person should agree with whatever I feel.It is a free world but good manners is a must, irresepctive of what the person is, however old or young a person is. Thankfully I have not had the misfortune to see many rude responses to my discussions.

I agree that disagreement should be done in a respectful manner. However, there have been a couple times on here recently that I have been accused of being rude. I do not think that I was rude, but I suppose that is all a matter of perspective. On the other hand, when you are using the exact words of the person you are commenting to in your response and they then accuse you of being rude does that not mean that they were rude as well?
• United States
24 Aug 10
Basically, if I take your words and use them in my response to you, and then you accuse me of being rude for using these words, then weren't you the one that was originally rude for using those words in the first place? If they are rude when I use them, then weren't they rude when you used them as well? Of course, I am not talking about you personally, Saphy, I am just using you as an example here.

Every single user here I am sure has had to face rudeness and that includes me. Honestly saphrina I just walk away even though I know I have not done anything wrong. I do try to explain and if the user refuses to understand then it is the user's problem and not mine. This is an ocean with plenty of fish. I don't even size them up but just move on.

Probably they take out their real life frustration here and look around for punching bags if they can find any. I am not going to volunteer and raise my adrenalin. The best choice would be to not precipitate specially when you know you are on the right and it is then that you come to know that they want to use you. Don't give them that opportunity.

saphrina I do not know you as many appear they do. I recall a discussion or two but not enough of them to say that I know you at all. But I agree when you say people should not be rude as I read a lot of discussions that head in that direction. I am one that completely ignores any controversial discussions as please I have enough worries in my personal life to waste any energy on any site. Although I was not molded by parents to instill manners in me, as I never had a set of my own, but I sure am old enough to know when respect should be given. So when I do not respond and or entertained controversial discussions I feel this is upholding respect. So as one who does not respond to anything that perhaps I may not like or find too controversial, this discussion I completely agree. I see you posted your discussion ten hours ago I hope by now you are feeling better about this whole thing.

Hiya saphie, Most times I pass those kind of things by. I will read them a bit to learn about it and nothing more than that. I don´t ever feel it´s worth getting into responses that are negative for both parties. If someone writes me something that is a bit nasty it will go unanswered so they lose out too. Ta ta is something we say to each other where I come from or Ta ra. Bit of a coincidence that.

i find it hard to agree with you by saying that"if you do not agree or like a tipic, DON'T RESPOND". since people are from different background and cultures, our ways of thinking are different, too. consider it like this, blue is different from red, so is green from yellow. but all these colors make up for this colorful world. what's more, sometimes, you can learn more and develop critical thinking. so it might be interesting to know how different people respond to the same matter. by the way, you are not old at all! just be happy!
