Do posters intend to hurt the feelings of other members?

farmstar:

Reminds of a line I saw on a poster from Despair.com. (If your sense of humor is sufficiently dark and cynical, head on over there to their site).

It said: MEETINGS - None of us is as dumb as all of us.

This can be said of almost anywhere people gather...literally or virtually.

I don’t think anyone intends to hurt anyone’s feeling.  I actually appreciate point blank honesty.  This in return allows me to trust the group more to insure a dealer is not using this forum to sell their gear.  Some of these point blank statements have really been helpful to me. They have helped motivate me to Google brands to see what they look like and spec out.

I must have missed something. Who is attacking and insulting whom in the forum you mentioned?

Just to clarify I guess.

I have no intention of ever entering a thread with intent to " hurt anybodies feelings".

But.....
If somebody ends up getting upset maybe because not all that was stated was correct well that's unfortunate but it is what it is.

I will pull no punches no matter who it is and expect exactly the same in return.

Sometimes the truth hurts......
