what more you want from me?

"what you give is what you get" is my mantra

How about this?

"When quoting a previous phrase, remember to read what context it was written in. This would probably save a lot of redundant misunderstandings or clarifications."

I knowm I know...
The one who feeds the flames is the one who will get burnt.

Nice once Memnoches!

Some additions that sounds alot like the others..

* Don´t judge a person until you walked a mile in their shoes..
* You are one of millions, you don´t know everything, but with patience you might learn a thing or two every day...
* "The world is so big, so big young Alexander"

If attacking someones post remember to read all of it. Don't just reply after reading the first point you disagree with.

Please don't quote extremely long posts and just put "I agree" at the end of it. If you write a brief description then people will know which post you are referring to without having to scroll through loads of text they have probably already read.

Those two might be useful in some way, I know they are ones that I try and do.

Great work Memnoch! Especially this "I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." Good one!

Kaz · 01-21-2002, 10:39 AM

It is not a shame to be wrong.

Ronn_Bman · 01-21-2002, 11:08 AM

Don't know it all!

Be willing to learn from someone you're sure is wrong.

Avoid "shooting" facts from the hip. Don't post lists of dates or events without knowledge of those events and without the ability to discuss how they are important to the debate.

I may agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death my right not to hear it

(c)Mr. Wilson

All kidding aside, good thread Memsy!!

Some of my best rules of thumb:

When in doubt about a person's intent, give them the benefit of the doubt. Rarely does someone actively seek to insult another.

Nothing is ever lost by walking away from a fight or a heated issue. You only lose when you lose control of yourself.

No one can keep up a facade forever. Sooner or later, their true colors will show. Let them hang themselves, and do not be so quick to provide the noose.

Cheers,
-Sazerac
