Is it normal for an OP to insult respondents?

I don't know if I necessarily insult someone, and generally I show my username, I just don't like it when someone posts something that is not even a valid contribution (I'll take funny too). I can't respect a post if it is not even a valid contribution or tries to use mean-spiritedness to devalue my question.

Granted I know that there are plenty of people here that will lash out on respondents for lesser reasons, lol. I guess they do so so their reputation here will not be damaged or scrutinized.

I don't know. I guess they feel more empowered when they are under the cloak of 'Anonymous Poll Creator'. They get to be more of who they really are when they can hide themselves. Much like how criminals commit crimes at night in the cloak of darkness.

It's not normal, but very common.

I see it going both ways a lot of the time.

Because they're chicken shits, even on the net when no one can see them. I think it's funny, someone who's sooo much of a little wimp that they won't give people shit unless their username is blocked....can someone be more lolable.

It's because to some... this isn't "is it normal" but "help me justify my actions".

they already know their actions are wrong. they just want to come up with excuses to justify those actions.

What did they say to you?

Lol I'm so guilty of this. Heehee :)

Of course it's annoying. I'm never mean to people who comment on my posts, it just bothers me when they don't understand what I'm saying, so I keep trying to explain it more thoroughly.

If you are 43joel, it's normal behaviour to create a post then slag off anyone that comments.

I usually don't use anonymous, so... Only person I have a problem with is the person who sent me the website in the first place...

Also I've had opportunities on my polls/stories to start a flamewar but I don't.

Fuck off make me a sandwich
