Which Getbigger would you like to fight???

Freedom of expression does not equal absence of consequences. There's certain things that you and I would agree should not be said, whether in real life or on the internet. All I'm saying is that yes, there's greater leniency when it comes to things you can say on the internet vs real life, BUT there's still limits.

The degree to which how one is affected is by certain comments is a different story altogether. That is an individual thing that will vary from person to person. Ofcourse, it shouldn't be taken as seriously as "real life" matters, and thats why there's room for leniency to begin with.

It shouldn't be taken AT ALL seriously.  If internet comments are getting you down or pissing you off, you see that little red "x" in the upper right-hand corner of your screen?  Click it.  Problem 100% solved!

you're being unrealistic, its PEOPLE interacting. You can't just cut out emotions whenever you want.

[Ozzy]

No, but you can take it with a grain of salt.

Things like "hahaha 'haider' oh man what a name I bet you're the kind of guy that googles 'willing 10 year olds' and furiously faps while looking back and forth from the computer screen to that printed picture of Ahmed from 'musclebears.com'. Hahaha, gayer than men smoking Virginia Slims" are not serious at all.

If people take offense to anything posted on a message board, I wouldn't want to think what their childhood was like.

It's not "people", it's electrons on a screen on a funny little glowing box in my living room.

I hold complete power over them.  If they're bothering me, I can make them go away just by clicking an "off" switch.

They have no more substance than the characters in my favorite television show.



While this may not be universal reality, it IS reality from the point of view of each individual poster.  People really need to gain some perspective.

hahahahahaha!! You're right about how one SHOULD react to message board comments. I'd disagree however that anything is good to go, theres bound to be things that will offend u in certain ways, even if to small degrees.

If you hold that perspective, then that is one way how u choose to "react" to message board comments. I cant diagree with that.

I agree with everything you said. When you post something on the internet you should know you're being critiqued and judged by people with every kind of opinion you could imagine. So getting "owned" every now and then should not be taken very seriously. A right to become upset and embarassed, perhaps.

Actually, I really don't think it would be necessary for a fight to break out over internet bashings. Shushnant Kapur should receive a nice bitch slap but a punch to the throat is a bit harsh!
