Listen to the mod!!
This is why I avoid threads that have even the slightest tendency to turn sour or heated.
Sometimes difficult conversations are the ones worth having most. OP came in requesting guidance on a very controversial subject and was met with the gamut of responses. That's bound to get some dander up.
Yes, but difficult conversations can be done nicely and positively, and with a SMILE. But things mostly heat up for some reason. :<
Roleplayers are often driven by their egos. Be it defending something they love, attacking someone perceived to be attacking something they love, or just wanting to feel acceptance on the whole, it's practically impossible to have meaningful discussion without also having passionate discussion. As passion is wont to do, sometimes that means things escalate.
As long as discussions are held respectfully, it shouldn't be an issue. The problem arises when people feel slighted or disrespected, which can happen to myriad reasons. And sometimes bad behavior warrants a spanking, but that's a tricky line to see sometimes.
