[QUOTE="happyhermit, post: 7629258, member: 6834463"] I don't know if there's any hope for this thread getting back on topic, but maybe we can wrap this up in case there is? I don't know how we could figure out "most" but the point is they don't have to be. There are times when telling a white lie or bending the truth is done in a way that isn't disrespectful, it might not even be the "best" or most moral thing, but it isn't disrespectful. I could give more examples but you get the idea. And it's possible to be respectful and do good too, lying or not. I agree, things can be disrespectful if true or false. It doesn't have to be, one can be disrespectful without intending to. I never said Elfcrusher wasn't ever disrespectful, I said that other's posts elsewhere were dripping with it. I cannot be certain there is no spite in Elfcrusher's position, never claimed that was possible, but I object to the idea that the position itself is somehow inherently spiteful. The two really aren't linked at all. If I think something is an abomination, then I might genuinely think the game is better off without it, that's not spite. Edited to avoid multiple posts in response to multiple posts; I don't know what you are referring to. Yeah, and you would be disrespectful to them, there is no obligation. Ok, and when you don't you are being disrespectful, right? Not sure what you mean, but if you are being disrespectful you aren't treating someone with respect, regardless of the reasons ie; you judge a person unworthy of respect. [/QUOTE]
