Seernai, stand up guy etc etc

5 years ago

I felt I had to say something and decided to make a new thread.
I am dissapointed in those of you that think it's OK to bully someone untill they feel they have to leave this forum, Seernai is a gold example, the other day he was called a buffoon and asked for it.
Is this right? Can't a man be different from you,? Or must he be forced out. SUG had the same treatment, I don't agree with a lot of things said here, including a lot of what Seernai said, but to insult him just because he has a different point of view, different attitude to life in general does not give anyone the right to put him down or insult him. There is way too much back biting and backstabbing in this forum. It's wrong, put your point of view across and listen to the answer it's called a debate. But name calling insulting is nothing but childish behaviour.
No one in this world is any better than anyone else, whether someone has more money, better educated, more privileges etc, does not make you a better person.
I was taught this by my grandmother, don't let anyone think they are any better than you. This has stood me in good stead, I am relatively badly educated, I never went to college or university I dont have degrees or certificates. But no man in this group is better than me, and I am no better than anyone else.
You should all stop this back stabbing, if some one gives wrong information then correct them without trying to make them look stupid or inferior, we can ALL learn something new every day.
Some of the me calling and superiority complex es is ridiculous. The world is made up of infinitely different charectors and intilects, we should all be more patient, everyone has something to offer who ever they are and wherever they come from.
Life is not just black and white there are so many shades in between.
Some of you should really grow up sometimes.
