And btw... calling someone stupid is a personal attack and against KoC... just in case there is a mod out there that is for some reason is letting that slip...

ive heard way worse things said, and it wasnt personal...just business.

I agree with you Jeremiah... but as "******" was given as an example of a no no... then I consider "stupid" as fairly close in meaning... KoC guys weren't offended but personal offense shouldn't be the means for defining breaking roc with personal name calling..since my experience of seeing people get away with calling others "Liars and cheats and hackers and scum and trash and drama queens and so on and so on and the majority of it coming from non KoC members ... I've taken a stand to point out every time I see it if a mod lets it go too long...
I don't like name calling and since RoC is also against personal name calling.. I don't see the problem my stand would cause except to stop the self justifing of these offenders that consider it ok to personally attack because they believe their targets deserve it...
Many of us know how to board pvp with humor... I will mention Shakaja and Kage here and Puffy among others... Look at their style and understand that when they are board pvping.. they have big smiles on their face and laughing until someone ruins it with meanest.. There is not a mean bone in their body... They are fun loving and probably the most accepting and laidback pvpers on the shard .. not to mention they are some of the most knowledgeable and helpful with those in need.. When they loose a fight and their armor... usually all that is said, if anything, is "oh well,,, there goes another good suit"...Kage is especially like this... many suits has he lost... and then we hear the familiar "Oh Well" on vent...
I don't know how it is in other vents, but in ours, when it is down, we get upset because one of the things that keeps KoCers logging on is how much fun we have with each other on vent.... That says a lot...
As far as Kage being respectful and deserving respect... I've never heard him demean a woman with vulgarity but always show respect as a man... Any other opinion about Kage and respect is wrong. He is almost as much of a gentleman as Daniel... Only Dan is just a little more experience!!! Aren't you babe
Here's to working toward less personal name calling attacks and more fun board pvping..
