  • So it's OK for you to call people "evil" or "bigots" or "idiots" but when someone says something you don't like, it's abuse?

    When a gang ie. you, dmg, krisskross, viktory, sunnyone constantly pick at everyone someone posts then that is abuse as far as I can see.

    Evil is the intention of causing harm or destruction while threatening or deliberately violating morality. Largely due to the subjectivity of the word morality (which may refer to a society's moral code, one's own moral system, relative morality, absolute morality, etc.), there is no agreement about whether evil is a matter of social custom or universally correct principle that overrides custom. Evil, however, is most commonly used to refer to any intention that is socially perceived as the antithesis of a morally right or good intention.

    Belittling people & trying to make them feel bad is evil.
    I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

    you should be reporting yourself.

    I didn't even know we could do this. On another forum I post on, it throws a wobbly if you report yourself.:rotfl:

    you and your old cronies are the worst offenders

    Unlike you, I have never sworn at or abused anyone but I expect that ash4becks won't be reporting your posts to abuse.

    You could do it on the email reporting system as it doesn't relate your email to your MSE account, and I've just checked and you can do it on the new reporting system too! ;)

    In the thread Budget - tougher for DLA claimants, you called Oldernotwiser a bigot and an idiot.

    (I cannot quote as the thread has been locked.)

    I totally agree Ramsas, I have emailed in as the way things are getting on these boards it is putting off the real members these boards we set up to help. It's always the same few members that start all the nasty, cruel and rude posts.
    Thanks for any help and advice given
