General Discussion rule?

I've insulted you? Please show me where?

You can't read? You insulted me in the reply I quoted.

Let's go word by word, stop me when the insult happens.

You cause the hostile environment.

just like now, letting me know how dumb I am. Like I said in the neg rep I'm only as smart as I am. You pointing out what you perceive as my lack of intelligence and especially proclaiming specific knowledge of how my intelligence compares to yours creates hostility and it's something you do regularly to me and pretty much anyone else you "debate" with.

I know you don't suffer from that thing where you don't realize how dumb you are (because you told us you don't)

Yeah, a little tongue-in-cheek, but ultimately I said you don't suffer from the "I don't realize how dumb I am" condition you have been accusing everyone else as suffering from recently. It was intended to drive my point home that you are the one creating the hostility.

frequently telling people how stupid they are compared to you doesn't help.

So here's me taking the cleverness out of what I'm saying and just saying it. Telling people they are dumb in the course of a debate causes hostility--see above.

Where's the insult?

Oh nvm I thought I read I don't realize how dumb I am.

I read that wrong :/

You are right.

 

[Gameface]

You don't realize you made an insult because of how dumb you are.

Reported.

I'm really sick of you. I'm trying to have a discussion here. Let's say I am very dumb, does that mean I don't deserve to be engaged honestly and with a basic level of respect or is it okay to be mean and malicious towards me because of my low IQ?

You need to let this one go, Gameface. Everyone knows how full of **** TBS is. What he thinks should be of no consequence to you.

Don't allow him to troll you like that.

Yeah, I'm a sucker for even starting.

I used to go on the Arizona Cardinals forums before I was on these forums and on their general discussion board they have the rule "Discuss everything except politics or religion." When I came here I was very surprised that this rule wasn't on these forums (granted those forums are the teams official website). I was wondering if this rule was ever considered on this website?

I know that I can simply ignore those threads if I want but I think that people on this website would hate each other slightly less (me included) if this was an enforced rule.

I personally would like this forum a lot less if we couldn't discuss politics and religion, and I'm glad we have no such rule.

We do have this statement in the forum Rules, though, and ask people to follow it:

Hot topics: Keep in mind that certain types of discussions tend to provoke strong reactions. These include topics involving race, religion, politics, homosexuality, abortion, etc. These topics can be discussed as long as they are done so without trolling or belittling others. Please take special care in such discussions to not disparage the opinions of others.

You think I am below you in intelligence because you suffer of this btw https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning–Kruger_effect.

The Dunning-Kruger effect is also seen in people with high intelligence.

Good thing you didn't even consider debating and resorted to posting pics since you would have been completely annihilated just like every other one of our debates. Sharks eat fish, that is life get used to it.

He may have been directing that pic at me (I have been doing a lot of crybaby-ing lately).
