Re: My ACE prefers cold?

Politeness isn't limited to calling someone names. And, for the record, I said you were being a certain way, not that you are that way.

Hounding someone for information and proof, and trying to make them look like an idiot is rude, and those actions do not require you to call names, but simply to insinuate that they are either ignorant or a liar, and insinuation is sometimes just as bad as flat out calling someone those things directly.

Note: not saying anyone are the things I mentioned, just used them for examples.

Asking for proof is not being rude. Wanting to search for the truth through facts is educating yourself and others. People tend to get defensive when they can not prove their point.

God damn you just won't give it up! Why you feel the need to sit here an jaw jack is beyond me! I have tried so many times now to end this stupid pointless discussion (politely) and you just keep starting it back up. I just ****ing said that I should have used a different word than plenty like a couple and that I apologized and you just need to keep going and going. To me 1 or 2 cases is 'plenty' reason to show that it can happen.

All I HAVE DONE IS ASKED FOR FACTS AND PROOF.

I agreed with you and now you start with the profanity. By forum rules your post should be removed. Adding **** to imply profanity is still against the rules.
