I don't quite understand this, but never mind.

Unfortunately, as this thread has demonstrated...It is extremely difficult for many people to make that distinction...Because, it is based on a matter of personal feeling and tolerance levels...That is why we can only rely on personal discretion and consideration

I think you might have hit the nail on the head in that it is extremely difficult for many people in the forum to make such a simple distinction, indeed make distinctions between many things when it comes to discussion, argument and amusement. Surely most people know the difference between a strong opinion and a personal derogatory remark?
Because of the common inabilitity to speak rationally and considerately about a subject, many members will fall back on insults instead. When we say: "...but what about this?", they hear: "Your momma is a terrorist whore," and respond accordingly.
The lunatics should not be allowed to take over the asylum, and most sensible forum members would fight to keep this site adult with consideration for kids but disdain for idiots and degenerates using the place as an excuse to blow off steam.
