Очень показательная.
Интересная дискуссия выродилась черт знает во что. А ведь истина, вроде, должна рождаться в споре, при условии, что стороны доказывают и высказывают свою тзр, а не бросаются оскорблениями... Мне вот оч. понравилась ветка про войну в Южной Осетии - интересная и thought-provoking. Много всякого узнала. И даже удивилась, что такой горячий топик так цивильно обсудили.
Вот, хорошие и продуктивные правила, по-моему:
"1. Be nice. This is our most important and most strictly enforced rule. We respect and embrace everyone's right to disagree and the spirited discussions that come out of differences of opinion, but there is never an excuse to be rude/derogatory/insulting. Offending comments (and words) will be deleted right away and the offender warned; those who persist will be banned. The TLC forum, like the TLC comments, is to be a place where enthusiastic and intelligent minds can come together, something no one can do while fighting. Please take a moment to remember that without differences of opinion the world would be a very boring place.
Related: What is a flame? Flaming is outlawed on the TLC board. Flaming is different from criticism: criticism points out something that could be improved. Disagreement is not a flame. Flaming includes but is not limited to insults or harassment of others based on actual or perceived gender, sexual orientation, age, race, ethnicity, religion, national origin or political affiliation. Do not post a comment that is that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortuous, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libelous, invasive of another's privacy or hateful."
