When posting your personal opinions on RP to get mature discussions, do you ever feel attacked? What can be done?

Thick skin is part of it, but the others are right, we are here to help the youngsters with the experience that we have at our fingertips, but there are many small minded people out there that want to make a spectacle of themselves for what ever reason. My advice is read what is said, and then evaluate if there is ANY useful information for your question, if yes, thank them and either move on or ask for more information / idea if practical. if no, move on to the next. If said person starts berating you and becoming unacceptably unprofessional, then I would kick a note to SMSgt Doc Thomas, SSG Palmer (JP4), Col Burroughs, SFC Davis or SGM Marquez and ask their advice and input. Of course I am pretty sure the offending party will also hear about it from the rest of the board here as well, but they are the admin that I know about and every one of them has given me sound advice either directly or indirectly since I got into doing this board, also as Admin, they are the only ones who can DO anything if it is too bad. Good luck to you young padawan.

Disagreement is not an attack. However, ad hominem attacks are. I've experienced many of those. Fortunately, I have a thick skin. Never blocked anyone. I believe that their attacks only work against them because I trust in the good and common sense of the RP community to see their attacks for what they are: Admissions of defeat.

PFC Pamala (Hall) Foster Great post and subject. I posted something about this as well earlier on that has taken on a life of its own.
