Help[Opinions] is this not getting a little bit ugly? (m)
in reply to a message by Siri
And completely gratuitous? I mean, Sabrina did not reply to Annie's post against Salem, so there's not exactly an argument going on. We regulars know Sabrina does have some rather odd ideas about what constitutes a good name, but Siri and Agata, and even Chrisell, is there really any need to pile on like this? The tone just seems unnecessarily nasty, and it's likely to have no more beneficial effect on Sabrina's naming ideas than Annie's neutral response.
Sabrina is not some stupid teenage troll faking a pregnancy or making sock puppets or asking don't we think Asshole is a lovely name? She hasn't broken any rules or been insulting, and she hasn't done anything new either. How about we save it unless and until something really worth the claws-out business comes along?

I think it might be worth it
Not worth it in the general sense of getting Sabrina to change her mind, but worth the arguing. I would be horrified if I met a child named Salem. It's so associated with mass murder and hatred and other awful things. While generally I agree that there's no point saying that something like Calendar is a horrid name, I think that in this case it might be justified.
Edit: clarifying

Discussing it is fine, I think.
But I'm afraid some of the comments in this thread pass the line of good taste and border on unnecessarily catty.
I know we can keep this civil, guys, so please, let's try a little harder?
