Fish 657 Posted April 13, 2020 Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 Sock puppet #2 is in the house already. Looks like Sailing NZ has just changed his name to Stay Tuned, and is merrily awarding vote points. Armchair, yes, it is a good thing to share and understand different points of view, it expands the mind and gives insight into things you wouldn't otherwise understand. Without it, we'd be living in an echo chamber. But there is a way to do it though. Actually following the forum rules is kind of fundamental, as is politely dissagreeing, and sharing opposing views in a civil way. Being belligerent and confrontational isn't sharing a view. Even his original thread for advice on a 40 footer, people would offer opinions or advice, and he would generally dismiss the advice out of hand or criticise it. I never once saw him actually thank anyone for a suggestion, make a constructive comment or get some back and forth going on what could work for a solution. No problem with opposite political and world views, its how he goes about it that is the problem. Sailing NZ, Sabre, erice and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Black Panther 699 Posted April 13, 2020 Report Share Posted April 13, 2020 KM i suspect criticizing site moderation is also against the rules. This was a public service announcement. Sailing NZ, Sabre, Clipper and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
