The context of this discussion is whether or not a trollish or conflict-oriented attitude in RnF is detrimental to the health of the server.

You stated that conflict occurs naturally as part of the game. This seems to be you justifying a negative RnF as acceptable because people are already experiencing resentment.

Adding fuel to an undesirable fire is indefensible. It's nothing more than opportunistic bullying and playground insults. It does nothing productive, and it actively harms the organizations you're associated with.

RnF is a vent for that fire. If you notice I have created 1 RnF thread ever and it wasnt against a guild or organization. If people weren't using RnF for this reason I wouldn't even be posting here. I only respond to false claims or outright lies. RnF exists because Competitive Raiding exists. I have no problem with people venting in RnF, its healthy, but if they lie or don't cover the whole story I will respond.

I would like you to support your final claims with evidence other than opinion.
The way I see it if you let a lie stand people will tend to believe those lies the more they are repeated. Likely, some will believe it anyways but there are a few that are capable of objectivity.
Many people also want to believe information without evidence because it supports their ideology or belief structure. See the tea party, religion, politics, etc etc etc.
These people will never be affected by RnF as their opinions are already formed.
For those with fresh opinions (do any exist on this server still) would be wise to use their own evidence as proof instead of RnF sniping.

I could honestly care less if someone who is incapable of formulating their own opinions hates me because I am "mean". I don't curse at people or demean races, or classes of people. Just liars, shady tactics, and cheaters.

The only thing negative about RnF is dishonesty, deception, and belief.
