I'm sorry, I felt I also had to jump on the bandwagon. For me it's got nothing to do with psychological problems, I was just heavily put off by the incredibly macho and sexist tone (many paragraphs contain references to size of male genitalia).
I'm with the GP post; write after having cooled down. That doesn't have to turn it into PR speak at all, and it might have as a side-effect that it'll be taken to heart by more readers.
Why is the premises here that everything to the last letter has to be taken seriously? I'll be damned, but there's reddit? netsec and such places. They seem to fare pretty well. Relevant rules?
- Don't create unnecessary conflict.
- Keep the discussion on topic.
- Limit the use of jokes & memes.
Places a bit of trust in people's hands instead of slapping 'lel no this, lel no that'.
I can't say I blame something or someone (well maybe people introducing those rules), after all it barely affects me.
