| * '''Attacking the victim''' When a user is stalked, harassed, and otherwise badgered, and they eventually respond with a snippy comment, that is regrettable; but let's be clear on who the aggressor is in this type situation. The snowball should be to jump on the aggressor, and offer support to the frazzled victim. | * '''Attacking the victim''' When a user is stalked, harassed, and otherwise badgered, and they eventually respond with a snippy comment, that is regrettable; but let's be clear on who the aggressor is in this type situation.

| * '''Mistaking Misplaced Pages for something else''' Misplaced Pages is an encyclopedia. While civility and friendliness make it a more pleasant working environment for the volunteers here, it is not primarily a social networking group who happens to be writing an encyclopedia.

| * '''Censorship''' or '''Suppressing information''' I see these charges all the time, and I have never seen them to be true. Misplaced Pages is ], and every attempt to censor this encyclopedia has met with rapid and resounding failure. These two arguments are pointless and useless, and usually a failure to ] as well, if not outright ]. If you find information you feel should be included is being removed, valid and useful arguments for inclusion are that the information is ] and ]. Argue with those arguments, and don't accuse your fellow editors of censorship. | |||

The small percentage of dogs that bite people is monumental proof that the dog is the most benign, forgiving creature on earth. ~W.R. Koehler
About KillerChihuahuaFriends, Thinkers, and (more or less) Reality oriented lifeforms, lend me thine ears! Long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away, our country brought forth a child. Her ventures are not in one bottom trusted, nor to one place. Half a league, half a league, half a league onward, east of the sun and west of the moon, she traveled, until she came to rest in a strange and distant land. There among a great and august company she learned is no great genius without a tincture of madness. Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duty and so bear ourselves that if the British Commonwealth and Empire last for a thousand years, men will still say, 'This was their finest hour'. We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give. Therefore, ask not what your country can do for you, ask where shall we have Lunch? |
