Personal attacks need to stop

As far as calling out BS, it's encouraged. Even if I'm the BS'er (in terms of PnR topics anyway). That's part of the forum. And, hopefully, it helps people have a better (if not new) perspective about a topic.

So, it would seem that we have a general consensus that calling out BS is fine, it is just the manner in which the BS is called out. Calling out individuals rather than their BS is not good.

Examples:
"I disagree with (fill in the blank), because (yada, yada, yada)". = very good
"How can you say (fill in the blank)?" = okay
"You are an idiot for saying (fill in the blank)!!!" = No. Just... no.
"You always say that and I have always proved you wrong. Case in point..." = okay
"Every time (fill in the name) posts on here, he/she always says (fill in the blank) and it hurts my butt to see it!!!" = No
"Bengalzona has an exceptionally large manhood!" = very good
