Offering one to Kyriakos. I don't like you, your posts are annoying at best, and nauseating at worst, but I shouldn't have been so childish about it. Sorry.

Slovenia has an HDI of .892, tied with Finland, ranks 8th in the world in gender equality right between Germany and France (US #43), has a Gini index of 23.8 (lower than Norway), virtually 100% literacy, a murder rate of 0.7, great food, culture, people etc. etc. and their cable news don't cause ulcers.
And the capital looks like this:

These are widely know facts, not secrets.
So on behalf of CFC i would like to apologise to Slovenia on account of comments made by other posters.

Can you point out some examples of his nauseating posts?
Slovenia seems pretty cool. I'd be happy to settle for "post-Yugoslav state, but nobody's actually massacring each other", so all this other stuff is just icing on the cake.Btw:
The gender (in)equality index for 2013 is out.

OP said:If someone's posting style grates you and you wish to frankly discuss it, this is the place for that as well.
It was not meant to be serious or meaningful anyway... but had it been, yes, the RD designation would have made sense.Perhaps this thread would be better served under RD standards?
Not here
I myself have tried things similar to that in this very thread and it didn't work out very well. I don't remember if I re-posted exact posts, but I summarized in detail my problem with the posters in question which amount to about the same thing. Like I said, it didn't go well and caused all involved (including myself) to become butthurt over it.If he claims Kyriakos puts out nauseating posts he should back it up, at least show us an example so we can talk about and find out why it's so nauseating.
It actually was.It was not meant to be serious or meaningful anyway...
It was originally a chamber thread but was removed from there pretty quickly.but had it been, yes, the RD designation would have made sense.
I disagree with the assesment. Sure, the thread has been abused by some but for the most part it's been ok at serving it's function.Instead this thread has largely been used as a place to insult people without apologizing or accepting apologies... like a safe zone for being a jerk.
Thanks. The problem is that we still haven't figured out exactly how to 'do' it right. You do get people who troll the thread purposefully because they don't like it and you also get people who give half-hearted apologies wrapped in insults. An RD would probably help with that, along with people accepting a few things -Actually, I think Hobbs did indeed mean it to be a meaningful and serious thread right from the outset. Good thread with good intentions.

Hey man, if this site makes you happy, continue pulling it off.I try to be very Art Deco in my posting style. So far I think I've been pulling it off quite well.
Should I stop pulling it off while posting?
Yeah I guess what I'm getting at is he probably shouldn't have made the claim to begin with. It doesn't help, but it's natural to want to apologize for being a dick to someone while calling out why you were a dick to them. If we all acted like grown ups, the thread could handle this kind of situation. But we're not all grown ups all the time, which is why this thread exists to begin with!
So I'm directly counter-acting my own OP because that idea just didn't work out I think. What is yall's opinion?
Should we discuss posting styles here?
I’m sorry for…
This is wrong because…
In the future, I will…
Will you forgive me?
