Behaviour on this forum

Post Reply New Topic

This forum is becoming the cesspit of WP with ongoing personal feuds and childish name calling and insulting behaviour. Other moderators have made several warnings here recently and they do not appear to have been heeded.

I don't care who started it. The only thing I care about is that it stops. This isn't a school playground, though it gives the semblance of being one sometimes. If you are unable to take part in heated discussions without resorting to personal abuse then don't post.

No more warnings. Any more breaches of site rules in this forum will result in accounts being suspended or banned outright.

Not that I visit or follow this part of the WP forum, TallyMan, but I believe that suspension doesn't come into it. Warn them of breaches, and if they do not cease engaging in egregious breaches of the rules, then ban them. Suspension only works on those who want to change.

For those of you here who remember me as a moderator, even though I am not one any more, I support TallyMan in this line of action.

I would like to thank you and say how much I appreciate the work that you do. Let's make this sub forum enjoyable for all.

It would be very nice not to be called idiot and so on. In figuring out issues and protesting polar views there needs to be a reasonable approach to figuring out how others think and how to make differences in views in how they have evolved more compatible. For years people were called names like curebe as a put down (over 100,000 times on Google in relation to autism) and in these alike forums for wanting a cure for debilitating symptoms for instance. If forums such as these can allow differences of viewing autism in a social environment progressing civil discourse rather then a political battle field then I believe progress can be made that fundamentally realizes and enables mutual progresses and potentials.

I suggest that this thread be made a sticky.

I suggest that PPR be closed entirely, and that any discussions of philosophy, politics, or religion that pop up elsewhere be locked.

"Becoming"?

Not having a go at you or anything, but it's been this way for aaaaaages.

I do not think that philosophy, politics, or religion should be off limits.

Well I am shocked that I have stirred up so much discussion.

But I think that it is equally possible to have a polite and reasonable discussion of philosophy, politics, or religion as it is to have a discussion about anything else. Equally I think it is possible for people to get nasty with a discussion of any topic, some topics however do attract trolls and also raise people's anger. While other topics do not normaly provoke strong feelings.

For example I have never heard of an angry debate about pi for example.

Sedisp is clearly here to troll and has been banned.
