| Aug 12, 2014 at 22:36 | comment | added | user102 | @tohecz: I think it's abusive more than offensive. Telling someone to hate someone else is not constructive, and that's never a good advice. Someone following that advice literally would be abusive. | |
| Aug 12, 2014 at 21:35 | comment | added | yo' | Well, I'm not sure that answer like "Fight him with your weapons, hate him, ..." qualifies as offensive in the sense of SE site. We might strongly disagree with such behaviour, downvote it, consider it low quality. But as aggressive I would qualify aggressive in sense like "you are an asshole", "the other answers are bullshit" and stuff like that. | |

| Aug 7, 2014 at 22:12 | comment | added | user102 | @StrongBad I know the feeling :) For what it's worth, if I could vote for the deletion already, I would do so. I don't think it's just a wrong answer (like this one), it is also content we should not have. This is not genuine, this is a troll. | |
| Aug 7, 2014 at 22:08 | comment | added | StrongBad Mod | I agree, your extreme example, and likely the actual answer, deserve to be heavily down voted and possibly deleted by the community. What I am struggling with as a mod is if it really qualifies as abusive or possibly not an answer. | |
| Aug 7, 2014 at 22:03 | comment | added | user102 | @StrongBad Let me push the reasoning to the extreme: if the OP was suggesting to go and kill the student, it still wouldn't be abusive to the OP, but I don't think we would want to have a post like that. | |
| Aug 7, 2014 at 21:59 | comment | added | StrongBad Mod | While the statements are suggesting the OP be abusive to the student, I am not sure the comments are abusive. | |
