[QUOTE="DethStryke, post: 2750967, member: 1309"] Well, specifically and not to simply play devil's advocate, the rules only strictly disallow cursing, raunchy/racist/dirty text (grandma rule), not staying on topic, name-calling, politics and religion; my social comment of divorce bring from (in part, obviously) many people's inability to effectively communicate with other involved no cursing, name-calling, racist, raunchy or dirty text (I dare say Eric's Grandma would agree! ;)). It was neither political nor religious (well, this was closest as it could be construed as a religious joining, but that's really stretching from the purpose of my comment in context). Best of all, it was squarely on topic (speaking on the general lack of communication between people). It is more a scientific observation, honestly. If the rules disallowed speaking about real-life, this entire thread would have been locked from the first post on. In close, I respectively disagree with your assertion, sir. I do agree with the spirit of your post, however, as many cannot separate observations from emotion, and divorce is not a flame-retardant topic. :eek: However, I will rely on the integrity of those who enter the conversation past this point to observe the rules as they are stated in the Rules of ENWorld FAQ and maintain my comment in the context it was meant. We are all adults here, and time and again the entire community has shown that they can have a reasonable conversation/debate without breaking the Rules. (PS- after re-reading this a couple times, I know this could sound really, really sarcastic. Please understand that is the furthest from my intentions.) [/QUOTE]
