Animation Source Forums

Ok, here goes my rant.

I find this very rude, also very annoying, when someone makes a rant and uses people's real user names, and then complains aobut them. Do you know how offensive that is? I've seen many rants like those before, and people continue to do so.

Ok, how would you feel if someone used your user name in a rant, or a topic, and said how 'immature' or how 'stupid' your user name was. I know I'd be pretty mad, wouldnt you?

In case you do not understand what I am saying, here are some examples:
User1: I have seen some very immature and stupid user names on Balto Source/Lion King Source, here are some stupid user names: [insert user name here] oh and this user name [insert other user name here]

And alot of times there is nothing wrong with the user names.

Also when making a topic, you really shouldn't post people's user names, you know, just in case they find it offensive.

I'm sorry if theres already a topic like this, I'm only trying to get people to stop using names in rants like those. I just want to get people to respect eachother and not complain about user names and such.

Well then, I'll just post up an example. Maybe that would help alittle.

It's just plain rude. It is. Not even giving benefit of the doubt. If you want to bring something up, just PM them. Not that hard. It's one click of the mouse away and saves a lot of trouble.

Indeed it should. I thought there was such a rule, but apparently not.

And it's totally spam to post that you don't understand what another's saying, therefore to please explain it more simplistically.
