Personal attack are the most distasteful, and are rarely humourous.

Spam can be entertaining, if the posters have a sense of humour.

The 'attacks" dont bother me all that much, as mainly they just call me "jewish" something Im proud of, as you may have gathered, which is why in the past Ive tended to ignore them. I don't think they show off Apolyton in the best light to newbies though. It doesn't annoy me that you talk about Jews, it annoys me that you take every tangental oportunity to steer conversations into some Jewish history lesson.

Some things just don't involve Jews/Jewish culure, period.

Painfully pretentious and humorless posts are the most annoying posting practice on Poly. You know who I'm talking about...

[Yyaqyped]

The worst kind? Easy.

Clinical, character-less, bland posts by one-trick ponies in poorly formatted posts. For example, a thread by a well-known Jewish poster about Kosher food without the use of punctuation, and with every sentence on its own line. Any attempts at humour or fun are shot down with a "I REPORTED YOUR POST" comment.

continuous personal attacks get annoying fast.

How about posting once or twice in a thread then walking away?

But versus posting obsessively, its sometimes the better choice for all!

Or if, as is often the case for a number of posters here, you find yourself on the receiving end and are incapable of competently defending yourself.

I think bullying clearly means not funny.

Playful jabs, intellectual duels, can be amusing. We're talking just plain rude, hammering kinds of things. Responding to those with jabs tends to legitimize them. And yeah, sometimes its not easy to come up with a witty rejoinder. So what.

The question is, do those kinds of attacks raise the level of the place, or lower it. Are they "Poly positive"?
