THAT IS BULLSHIT!! now did i say that his whole post was "bullshit"? NO and who the hell gets offended by somebody saying LMAO? how the hell is that rude? and when i post "LMAO" i post it for a reason! its not like i just did it to make him look stupid or anything. I posted it because it needed to be posted being that i thought it was funny lol |
Regardless, he wasn't rude or disrespectful when he made his post. Even if what he said was wrong, calling it 'bullshit' is rude. It is one of the many things one can do to NOT have an intellegent and peaceful discussion. Surely, you could just as easily told him that he was wrong. A simple change of wording can prevent a flame-war from erupting.
When you post LMAO to a post, you give the impression that you consider the post to be a joke. This, again, makes it very difficult for people to take what you say seriously and have a respectful discussion. If I post my personal thoughts about something, I wouldn't like to see someone respond with several "LMAO"s thrown in there. All it does is shows me that the responder is incapable of expressing his disagreement without belittling my own opinion as a joke.
Avoiding things like that are just some of the courtesies everyone should go through. Try to be considerate and respectful.
