Trying something once will increace your chances of success, because you tried it. Try someting twice, and your chances increase yet again - seeing as you've done it. Try something a few thousand times, and your chances of success is exponentially increased; this increase would likely provide success every time
Honestly, and truthfully, I completely agree with Twinkie and Weggie. Both, make very good points; both, have points that all of us hold true; we just haven't admitted it yet. Twinkie, for example, says everyone falls under a certain group, although it is our choice whether we recognize and accept that fact or not. This is completely true. No matter who you are, you have some sort of discrimination. We don't like to admit it, and we don't like to show it, but it is there. Everyone hates 'someone' for 'some reason'. There is no denying that fact. If you haven't realized it and have embraced it, then you are no doubt in denial. Everyone places everyone else in some sort of group; it is human nature. Look at a high school for example. Only certain people, hang out with other certain people. Sure, there are a few that hang out with a little bit of everyone, but not everyone. The point is, everyone has some sort of discrimination; it is only if we show it. And it is when it is shown, that everything becomes a mess; and people get offended. Words are exactly that, words.
Then Weggie, let those in charge of it decide. The mods are the ones that decide what gets locked, who gets banned; we just push them towards their decision.
Not exactly sure if this makes any sense, or even if I made points agreeing with Twinkie and Weggie; since my contacts at the moment are bugging my eyes like crazy. So, my apologies for any spelling mistakes, and if this does not make any sense. And, if none of the above made any sense to anybody, let me paraphrase.
I agree with banning discrimination from these forums, and no not just age, but all discrimination threads. No doubt someone will get offended. And when that does happen, things get ugly. Personally, I say people need to learn, like Twinkie said; words are words and people are far too easily offended by them.
