Offended? - Page 3

I remember someone telling me "stick and stone may break my bones but words have never hurt me". Then again that person has never been hit by a dictionary.

It does not matter where you are. In real life or in cyber life the way words are put together whether spoken or typed out can be hurtful to someone somewhere. Trying to keep someone not offended can be a major undertaking. I just hope that I can go through life offending less people.

Offended

People get offended when they take issues personally or when others make the issue personal. Discussing issues shouldn't be personal. You can get offended by someones stance on something though. In turn, especially in issues of race, its hard not to become personally engaged in the discussion.

I tend to not discuss race unless we are talking humans, elves or orcs. Race is such a issue that any number of people can explode and then it is just not fun anymore.

Ok, I have run across a little thing on this forum that really bugs me...

I'm RLDS, currently known as "Community of Christ".

And when I go to look at certain topics, I'm blocked because I'm not LDS.

It's sort of like having a cousin slam the door in your face because you're
not wearing the correct clothes.

Offended

That is more of a personal issue and detracts from the purpose of this Thread, so I will respond to it in your Introduction Thread and we can Discuss your concerns there.

Offended?

I rarely get offened. Someone has to be really really nasty and spcifically trying to target my mother's good name or something like that before I get mad.
