Re^2: A New Respect

and it's to your credit that you have the strength of character not to have gone off in a huff

Intrepid was borged for a day. Instead of taking his forced cooling off period from chat, he created cannotsilence and returned to the chatterbox to continue.

it is unfair to treat him differently from anyone else - whatever has happened in the past.

But he is different, as evidenced by this thread. He just won't quit or start over. The purpose of perlmonks is to have fun enjoying perl, not picking pointless fights.

-- for this post. While I agree with most of what you said (and, for the record, what I've seen of the proceedings show Intrepid behaving in a rude, utterly childish and irrational manner IMO), the fact that you posted this as AnonyMonk puts it into the realm of sniping and will only serve to further strengthen Intrepid's persecution complex. I thought g0n's post was a good attempt at bridge-building, more forgiving than I would have been but then sometimes you have to do that. All dogma is stupid.	[reply] [d/l]

I have to say, I don't think your complaint about the anonymous posting has helped matters at all. The issue has been beaten to death. Please read (e.g.): Why anonymous ;-? What are the Benefits of Anonymous Replies? anonymous Monks: a double-edged sword in an argument. Question to all Anonymous Monks: why you do not register? Anonymity and Courage Get rid of Anonymous Monks? We're building the house of the future together.	[reply]

To clarify, I wasn't complaining about anonymous postings in general, just about this specific post. Even without reading the links you give I can think of several valid reasons why one would want to post as AM and I'm fine with that (my previous suggestion for changing one aspect of AM posting notwithstanding). But in this particular case it is clear that this was a Monk who was in the CB yesterday and who is commenting on Intrepid's character without having the decency of identifying himself. Regardless of the accuracy of his statements, that is sniping and I personally don't approve of that (not that anyone needs my approval, just giving my opinion). All dogma is stupid.	[reply] [d/l]
