Re: Civil debates and dissenting opinions

I dislike when posts get torn down but understand why some do. From what I have read here it seems like this one doesn't quite fall into the game piece leak category which I totally understand getting pulled. This one seems to have actually made a good point but sadly I don't have the ability to read all of the thread. I read the rules up top but am still unsure so I will ask. Is it against forum policy to request or post links to a deleted thread for historical purposes if the reason a thread was pulled was because of a duplicate account to protect a team or person from direct retaliation? Especially so with the sensitivity to cyber bullying today?

In regards to some of the threads that may have stemmed this original post. I think we also need to remember that there are people among us who are new to forums and their etiquette. It is up to us to gently guide them to the proper way to deal with situations rather then bash them down. Many times what seems like an attack from them could simply be unclear wording. I read some of the posts made in one of the mentioned threads and I think one point to take away is if Derek Jeter said something wasn't cool many would agree with him on it. Big names carry weight and with that weight comes responsibility.
