| Bashing is a little different than politely dissagreeing. On an internet forum, dissagreements can become debated at lenth, can become emotional, irrational, ect, as it is simply a discussion. It becomes bashing when you dissagree simply to cause trouble, one example would be going to an automag forum to discuss the advantages of the autococker over the automag and Tom Kay's sexual preferences. While those topics can be dissagreeed upon, doing so in front of an audience that feels strongly against what you have to say constitutes bashing, or simply posting to pick a fight. While most bashing is a little more subtle than the examples I listed, the context is is the same. |
