Dude, you’re losing it. Saying that his position is priggish is not an insult. It’s simply describing his position (which is perfectly valid). He wants this to be a super-duper-polite debate board, which is valid. I think that dehumanizes things and that people need to be able to demonstrate emotion, personality. Both positions are valid. He wants it to be a bit more—and this is NOT an insult—“priggish”…more a monocled professor in a three-piece tweed suit. THAT is not an insult. I want it to feel more natural. I’m not looking to turn it into a barroom fight, I was just making the point that what LHOD had described seemed overly polite, stilted, unnatural.

You’ve made a mistake here. Please rescind you’re Warning.
