Judging from what your earlier reply to me, I just assumed that paraphrasing was fair game now!
Also, you may have missed the "to me," but it is still there. It's even in some nice round brackets that make it easy to find.
Anyway, good night. I spend too much time in my day job dealing with horribly aggressive strangers to make it worthwhile engaging them in my spare time too.
Paraphrasing means keeping the meaning but changing the wording. Dropping 'how' changes the meaning. It's not paraphrasing.
Oh, I'm sorry for missing that instance. But as I'm sure you're not foolish enough to try and pretend one instance of each is all those times, my point stands that you're claiming to have qualified your opinion a lot more than you actually did.
Good night to you too. If you behave like this to the strangers you meet at your day job, I'm not at all surprised they're aggressive. Of course, on this showing, they could just be asking you questions which you assume are goading based on some offense you imagine they feel. How horribly aggressive!
While Scans Daily encourages vigorous debate, overt aggression is unnecessary. If you find a thread escalating, take a step back, or bow out of the conversation. While we note you attempted to bow out, you also returned to this thread.
While we realize there may be personality conflicts and that not all members need to get along or like one another, we ask that our members respect one another. Thank you.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
