I agree with that. > Antoon is describing people's character. I disagree with that. To merely describe someone as “incompetent” is not to describe their behaviour: they are not competent to do what they are attempting, which is not a judgement on their character. Just as to merely describe someone as “ignorant” is to describe their lack of knowledge in some area, and is not a judgement on their character. Even character judgements can be appropriate, so long as they are salient to the acceptable behaviours in this forum; there are many character attributes that are incompatible with this community. So since both accurate description of actions and character judgement can be appropriate for discussing acceptable behaviour here, I'll thank you not to make absolute prohibitions against either. > You are talking about describing their actions. Yes. Since you seem to be imputing character judgements to descriptions which are accurate descriptions of behaviour, I think we've found the root of the disagreement. I've made my position clear and will let it rest there. > Calling someone incompetent is an attack It can be part of an attack, but in itself is merely a description of someone's behaviour. > If you cannot see the difference, I'm not sure what more I can say. Likewise. Thanks for caring enough about this community to act in the interest of keeping it open, considerate, and respectful. -- \ “Beware of and eschew pompous prolixity.” —Charles A.
