| Re: Attn: ALL Members (a must read)
Aeonkat, you really need to move on from this. You chose to stretch the literal meaning of the word lazy as some general character assassination by Ly against members. Clearly, she is only referring to lazy posting habits. And that is quite an appropriate way to phrase it.
We can all be guilty of it; we all know it causes less than optimum posts. Her use of the word was NOT derogatory to anyone's character.
As an honors English student, I would think you would appreciate that words and messages should be kept in context.
Also, unlike other adult forums, our forum faces a challenge in that the majority of posters are kids who are quite used to and comfortable with chat speak and think there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. This is why we have to go to such great lengths to keep an adult-level of maturity of posting on the forum.
If you aren't comfortable with how we run the forum, there are many others on which you can participate.
And I agree with VJ's putting this thread on temporary moderated status. I consider this particular discussion closed. You can PM if you've got something else you want to say.  |
