After about 10 of those very deliberately personal comments in direct violation of just about the only rule this site has, I'm banning mostly reader for a few days:
update users set user_suspended_until='2022-05-01 05:37:46' where user_name='mostly reader';
mostly reader saysrichwicks saysI don't care what Russia does...This is when all who's been following you have a good laugh. You have your tongue so far up Putin's asshole that his butt hair is tingling your tonsils.

@Patrick - No, it's not necessary. You know I have a thick skin. You never have to worry about what is written about me.

I don't give two shits that Yandex or the FSB knows I've gone down the Rin route of banging dolls and am working on customizing a Siberian Shamaness or Viking Princess to fulfill my Conan Fantasy. They couldn't give a fuck less.
I do give two shits that the NSA (via MI5/6) and Google have all my political posts and are very interested that I buy LifeStraws and shop online for .45 Long Colt.

I noticed you were not bothered by it, but it bothers me.
Things collapse when personal insults are allowed.

I like that rule. Heard it before, but never saw it explained clearly:

I like that rule. Heard it before, but never saw it explained clearly:
Declaring yourself to be operating by "Crocker's Rules" means that other people are allowed to optimize their messages for information, not for being nice to you. Crocker's Rules means that you have accepted full responsibility for the operation of your own mind - if you're offended, it's your fault. Anyone is allowed to call you a moron and claim to be doing you a favor. (Which, in point of fact, they would be. One of the big problems with this culture is that everyone's afraid to tell you you're wrong, or they think they have to dance around it.) Two people using Crocker's Rules should be able to communicate all relevant information in the minimum amount of time, without paraphrasing or social formatting. Obviously, don't declare yourself to be operating by Crocker's Rules unless you have that kind of mental discipline.
Note that Crocker's Rules does not mean you can insult people; it means that other people don't have to worry about whether they are insulting you. Crocker's Rules are a discipline, not a privilege. Furthermore, taking advantage of Crocker's Rules does not imply reciprocity. How could it? Crocker's Rules are something you do for yourself, to maximize information received - not something you grit your teeth over and do as a favor.
"Crocker's Rules" are named after Lee Daniel Crocker.

I think we all end up adopting the rule anyhow once you get old enough and you're talking to somebody anonymous. It's a good rule in discussion. The only person that really can insult you is you. You have to believe that what is said may possibly be true.
