[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 8903194, member: 177"] I don't recall seeing FUD invoked recently. But really, the our entire hobby is filled with fear, uncertainty, and doubt right now. So, kind of like saying water is wet when we are all floating in an ocean. Pretending yourself FUDless and everyone else is FUDdled could be a problem, yes. We'd prefer folks not fire off "bad faith" at each other. There is no real reason to continue discussing with someone who argues in bad faith, so if someone's going to say that, they should already have disengaged. Fallacy? There's nothing personal in noting a logical or factual fallacy. "I'm sorry, you are wrong," or, "I'm sorry, but this is faulty reasoning," isn't personal. There are no special exemptions for anything. But we try to take everything on a case-by-case basis, including the context, and we may not agree with you on the impact of any particular incident. And we are not omniscient - in times of high post volume, we [I]cannot[/I] read every post ourselves, and sometimes we have to prioritize. [/QUOTE]
