Yes I am aggressive. I do think that being aggressive and disrespectful can be different things in some situations.However, I don't think I entered the discussion at all being aggressive.Someone twisted my words, made false assumptions and I lost patience and became aggressive
This will be my last mention today about confrontational style... But realize that people form impressions of you quickly. These impressions will effect the way that you are perceived from that point on. On something like the internet where typing is the only way to communicate you have to be careful not just of what is said but how it is said.

If something is said in a way that is aggressive, condescending, etc.. It typically works against you and obscures whatever point you had.

I'm not just talking about neicy. I'm talking about neicy and lots of other folks on here. Remember that by getting aggressive you just shift other people into defensive mode and you end up with a stalemate.
