Just a question for longwatch, member moderator. I trust that you can answer this.
Sometimes, when people discuss subjects on OCDO, they will disagree. When this happens, usually, a person will state what his disagreement is. Then, usually, there will be a reply to that disagreement and the conversation/debate/discussion/argument will proceed until it's done.
But sometimes, it just would be good to end all that back-and-forth stuff and simply tell the other discussant to be quiet and cease writing his opinion. If the person "causing" the disagreement were only to be quiet and just stifle it, things would just be better...
One way to accomplish this quietness is to request or order an OCDO member to be quiet and cease writing his opinion. If the guy is named, George, one could say, "Please do not write your opinions anymore, George. I do not wish to read them."
Or one could say, "George, shut up!" That would send the same message in a different style.
Finally, with a distinct sense of immediacy or for some other reason, one OCDOer might say, "STFU, George."
What do you think, longwatch?
1. Is it OK for one OCDOer to post that another OCDOer should "shut up?"
2.Is it OK for one OCDOer to post here that another OCDOer should: "STFU?"
Ifboth of thesestatements are OK withyou, I (and probably others) want to start using them.But it's best to check first.
