Telling people on a message board to shut up is NOT character assassination.
Wiki No one here is assassinating anyone. Disliking someone and sharing that opinion with others is not the same thing.

I think character assassination is the dumbest phrase I've ever heard. Assassination is the murder of an important person, a figurehead, a national or international leader.
Why can't people just say defamation of character? And for that matter, nothing in my signature or thread is defaming anyone.
