Lucky mike Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 What has happened to common manners on TV, I enjoy reading many of the posts and comments. Many comments bring a smile to my face and I have learnt a lot through educated posters and I for one thank them for sharing there knowledge. What disappoints me is the absolute rudeness of some comments, if you cannot be positive shut up ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rijb Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 You're disappointed with rude, anonymous comments? How do you feel about rude, anonymous graffiti? There's lots of discussion about how people are too easily offended lately. Some people think that being offended makes them right. Check out the News/Trump forums. Stephen Fry says it best... “It's now very common to hear people say, 'I'm rather offended by that.' As if that gives them certain rights. It's actually nothing more... than a whine. 'I find that offensive.' It has no meaning; it has no purpose; it has no reason to be respected as a phrase. 'I am offended by that.' Well, so ****ing what."

jeab1980 Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 (edited) My take on this is, people read a post then decide the poster was in some way (the famous TV way "reading between the lines") Having a go a pop or being what the reader classes as disrespectful!. There are some (a lot actually) who look through post to see who bites att certain things then will go out of there way to try to get those posters to bite and to get annoyed with them for instance the old son trick at the end of a reply ie show me "son" always gets a reaction or the imformous must be a "Thai Appologist" with a guaranteed negative response. What is it a lot of my aquaintances say openly on FB or other Thailand forums or whilst socialising. Oh yes Thai Visa only one or two people on there who i listen too the rest are all experts on nothing, or i'm only on there to wind some idiots up. Says it all really. The OP should really take a leaf from his own post about rudness a quote from the bottom of his post which is placed there to illicit a response in the negative "What disappoints me is the absolute rudeness of some comments, if you cannot be positive shut up ?" So one can only be positive when replying. Does this in fact mean dont bother replying if you disagreee with me?
