Fine, now that the obvious is out of the way, we can now talk about social protocol and the finer points of social environments and contexts. Could you please explain to me how the fuck someone could possibly arrive to the conclusion that /prog/ is anywhere close to an emotionally-safe environment?
There's quite a gap between what you think of /prog/, what I think of /prog/, and an emotionally safe environment.
No, this, isn't some tea club for elderly ladies, but that doesn't mean that everyone being a fuckwad with a raging rage-boner all day is a fine state for a forum to be.
I enjoy trolling and shitpostery as much as any guy here, but gratuitous bile being spit all-over, all the time, isn't that much entertaining after you see that you start predisposing yourself to see gratuitous bile being spit all-over, all the time. You can do that, you are within your right, but covering it saying that it's a free Internet is a cop-out. You could at least say that it's for le lulz, but then you'd have to face that it's unfunny as fuck after you see the 100000th guy pulling the same tired shit, again, for the millionth time.
