| landguy1 said: So, 2 people banned for disagreeing with ethomaz? Is it a forum where OPINIONS are shared. IF someone disagrees with the opinions and asks for that person to prove it, is that a bad thing? More than a few times, I have tried to use my poor memory as a basis for a comment and people threw out the prove it line. If I didn't prove it, I was supposed to be full of crap. So, even if ethomaz provided proof of his "credentials", who is the person to judge the validity of those and then determine that he is now an expert? Does it really matter? The real answer is people here disagree all the time and Banning was not the answer for people just saying prove it. OT - I also think that we won't know whether this will impact anything until someone breaks this all down to a point where anyone on this site can have an opinion without having to "Prove It'. |
I would have to assume the bans were for saying Ethomaz was either full of shit or a troll. You can question people all you want and ask them to prove their claims, make it personal and insulting and you'll be banned. It's always been that simple.
edit: Nvm. They seem to be for different posts than I was expecting. I was assuming the OP had been banned but it was two other people.
