Enebias: Well, that much is clear.
I was just saying that it doesn't seem to me that the OP is forcing something on someone, just as he wasn't forcing anyone when talking about balance: in fact, nobody is either responding with religious GOG mantras or has suddenly started to accept DRM, as far as I can see.
I definitely understood what you meant but thought I would just nitpick a little by pointing out the literal difference ala Grargar. :) I was just saying that it doesn't seem to me that the OP is forcing something on someone, just as he wasn't forcing anyone when talking about balance: in fact, nobody is either responding with religious GOG mantras or has suddenly started to accept DRM, as far as I can see.
Enebias: It's just an incresingly strong habit of certain people I really cannot suffer, that's all -and I will probably get on someone's nerves for stating this, too, as it always happens when someone dares to "rebuke" a certain bad behavior.
To be candid, I do agree with you on this point and am generally not impressed by the kind of responses that employ unnecessary juvenile cursing all the time. But I usually tend to just ignore it myself and if its in really bad taste while being totally uncalled for IMO then I just down rate the post, which is not very often as I know how easily the broken rep system is abused. Although there are some people that I am well acquainted enough with to know their unabashed style of speaking direct and certainly don't mind it at all when they swear like a sailor once in a while. But they are the ones that have been here long enough to know that being harsh and really rude to newcomers is not the GOG way. The reason why this community flourishes is because you could not find a more open and welcoming place anywhere else on the internet. :)
