Nonsense, you can use either forms, also you may want to use a period at the end of your sentence, before being critical (wrongly).Last edited by freelancer75; 10 December 2010, 14:54. -

Meh, typo.Originally posted by freelancer75 View PostNonsense, you can use either forms, also you may want to use a period at the end of your sentence, before being critical (wrongly).
It's "form" not "forms".
If you can find me a definition using "about" rather than "on" I'd like to see it.
Maybe start here"Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

Both civility and incivility are broad churches and clearly your mileage may vary on the what constitutes one or the other but my personal view (which I'm sure will be widely shared) is that, on balance, serially casting aspersions about the integrity of others over months is uncivil. No redefining of terms took place. Roger talk 11:04, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

It is fun looking words up actually, isn't it.
An idiot, dolt, or dullard is a mentally deficient person, or someone who acts in a self-defeating or significantly counterproductive way. Archaically the word mome has also been used. The synonymous terms moron, imbecile, and cretin have all gained specialised meanings in modern times. An idiot is said to be idiotic, and to suffer from idiocy. A dunce is an idiot who is specifically incapable of learning. An idiot differs from a fool (who is unwise) and an ignoramus (who is uneducated/ an ignorant), neither of which refer to someone with low intelligence.Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

I said definitions, not examples of poor use. Just because someone else does it does not make it right, particularly if you are going to quote other peoples quotes on Wikipedia.Originally posted by freelancer75 View PostBoth civility and incivility are broad churches and clearly your mileage may vary on the what constitutes one or the other but my personal view (which I'm sure will be widely shared) is that, on balance, serially casting aspersions about the integrity of others over months is uncivil.

That should have read "...serially casting aspersions upon..."."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment
