I agree and would like to add: please support your opinion with arguments, so we can discuss about those. And above all, treat forum members, no matter their rating, with respect.

"You cannot impose your opinions on others"
Ok, this is a carried-over argument from another thread, titled "Which castling structure you prefer?". I thought those bitter arguments would stop after my request, but apparently they didn't. I believe that the OP has asked an interesting question, and it's a pity that the thread is now littered with unnecessary bitter remarks. As I stated before in that thread, people may have different opinions and we need to respect that. You cannot impose your opinions on others, even if you are right and they are wrong. This is why Karpov plays differently from Kasparov and Kramnik plays differently from Anand. We may all look at the same position and have different opinions on how to go about it. Then, Michael asked what my definition of respect is and whether not 'correcting' those who are wrong is considered respectful to the OP. To Michael, it is okay to disagree with people. However, you cannot force people to agree with you. This becomes a problem when a person demands another person to accept his opinion. It is up to the OP to decide which of the various suggestions actually work for the OP. Let's keep the thread "which castling structure.." clean, because I think the question is interesting and may lead to a very instructive discussion.
