Some people bring their sensitivity here, we have to be good at ignoring and letting things pass, it's ok if people distrust you or say nasty things to you, don't make a big deal out of it take a breather

And by the way, I check SOKO-DEKE post and I'm surprised that there are no offending words there from my point of view.

After reading the heading I was under the impression that profanity has been used in the reply or sarcasm was used. I did not find anything unusual in the reply still, OP was not okay with it. That is why I would ask @Edcrypto91 to please elaborate on the reason you feel offended by the reply of SOKO-DEKE. There is nothing anyone here could think of that makes you feel so bad unless you clear up our mind with a genuine reason for this topic.

The only part of the post which could be possibly be seen through someone's lens as being offensive in the slightest way is this:

in fact why should you even invest the money that did not belong you in bitcoin or even convince someone to invest in Bitcoin that you are not guarantee of what will happen in future ? I will say that is a bad idea. my advice to you is to teach your father about bitcoin so it can decide on his own whether is half or quarter of retirement funds he can afford to invest in Bitcoin.

which I personally do not consider to be offensive at all. In fact he is not making fun of you or saying mean words, he is just criticizing your action (and not you as a person).

Even if it still bothers you, you can just press the Ignore button to hide the post.

I'm offended by people who are offended by words. Grow a thicker skin and enjoy freedom of speech, even for the people you disagree with.

Agreed. If I want to call someone an idiot or patronize them, usually it's for a good reason. I, as an internet user, have a right to do that.

Of course, if I am abusing my freedom then I deserve to be called out. However if someone is obviously being an imbecile, or deserving of some snap, then why not....or if opportunity for banter is there then why not too

Every person is right in his own opinion so do not use offensive words on others who make a post but rather convince them to understanding why their opinion is wrong
Some members of this forum do this alot
Like saying a person's post is nonsense or is of no use like this post made by a newbie
with SOKO- DEKE saying it is nonsense https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/dads-retirement-money-is-invested-in-bitcoin-5454681
Please let us be more polite when making post or replying posts

It's the internet bro

If you can't handle it, press the power button. Everyone has a right to talk however they would like to. If it's actually out of line, even according to a vast amount of other members, then I am sure the perpetrator will get called out or receive similar treatment (as the circle goes). Otherwise, don't worry about it...and definitely don't make threads about it Roll Eyes

That link is to a topic, not to a post of SOKO-DEKE. You must share a link of that offensive post, not that topic.

You have two ways to get a link of SOKO-DEKE post:
- At the left side of that post, you will see #number, click on it and you will get a link.
- Click on his post, you will get a link at the browser.
Copy the link and share it in OP but it is not a big matter, you can move on.

The forum is free for speech and if you don't like someone, you can click on Ignore to ignore the user. Ignore and move on, it's simple.

First move this thread to the reputation board.

If you're not ready to be critized by others then bitcointalk is not for you.

I have gone through SOKO-DEKE's post in that thread and I don't see any part of his reply where he called the post nonsense. The only thing there was him stating the obvious, it's never a good idea to invest for anyone no matter how close they are to you, it's always better to educate them on the issue and if they like the idea they can proceed not you getting involved in their investment what if the whole investment scheme doesn't go as planned what do you think will happen to you?

I think you need to reread that post and get a better understanding of his reply.

There's a post by LoyceV I read sometime ago that changed my mindset concerning some posts here in Bitcointalk.

If someone anonymous on the internet has the power to make you angry, you're doing something wrong and some time away is probably a good idea.

They're just words and only you can let them effect or hurt you. Just ignore anything you deem offensive.

Aren't you aware that this is bitcointalk community, where everyone can talk what they feels about you, bitcoin or anything they feels about, don't be surprised that you may look so good in your own eyes and other's not seeing that, being a newbie onnthis forum, expect them to correct you, it may appears as an insult to you but you're taking note of those aspect to improve more better, every experienced members here today once was a newbie and they pass through the learning process, if i were you, i will appreciate them and take note on the exact message they are trying to pass across.

I've learnt one thing in life that when men throw stones at you, take time to gather them and use the stone to build a defensive wall round about you, i hope you also understand this and it's interpretation.

This discussion will be better on reputation, you can move the thread.
