[quote]Uh. When I showed up? ^_^[/quote] Ha. :] Congrats on getting an RP discussion thread going. [quote]Oh, and one final thing before I do agree to the amicable "agree to disagree" just to help Dervish and Ruby in the future with their communication skills: When you question a person's methods, you are questioning the person's character. When you call my methods cruel, or disturbing, you are in turn by extension calling me cruel, or disturbing, versus if I were to critique a fictional character: A person who does not exist, a physical work, an object, a thing, the result of a method, not the method itself.[/quote] Sorry if you were offended/felt attacked by the discussion (I wasn't involved, but I know that sucks). And I get how the comments on your actions were perceived as translating to yourself. But this sentiment does not work. It ends up: "Don't criticize me." If you can't question a person's actions or analyze the actions and make a critical conclusion, what can you criticize? The common point about debate is to criticize an individual's actions and ideas, not their character. This makes the former equate to the latter. They're not calling you twelve, or a nazi. People have right to evaluate your actions as wrong.
