From: Panthera | #005 It's more like the internet is bad about recognizing that you're not trying to be dogmatic when you say "X is good."

There have been so many times where I've been accused of stating opinions as facts because I did not tack on an "IMO" or "in my opinion." Those people are silly.

actually, "in my opinion" acknowledges that you consider your opinion to be just that, an opinion, rather than claiming whatever statement you've made to be fact.

I also hate when people say "this is objectively ____" when it is entirely subjective. The same goes for "this is factually _____" when it is not a fact at all.
actually, "in my opinion" acknowledges that you consider your opinion to be just that, an opinion, rather than claiming whatever statement you've made to be fact. However, if I say, "The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a good game," am I stating an opinion or a fact? It should be obvious that I am stating an opinion, unless I say that it is objectively or factually a good game. I don't see why someone should need to tack on "IMO" to a statement like that. -- multiple updates tomorrow or i will publicly admit that zachnorn is better than me -Sess/MRNICEWATCH Posted 3/5/12, no more updates since... ...

I guess it depends on the people you know and how they react to opinionated statements like that. Still, do you think it is so difficult for someone to tell that it is an opinion that they would need to call someone out about how they are expressing an opinion as a fact? -- Zachnorn - <D http://board8.wikia.com - Board 8 Wiki | http://www.stickam.com/profile/zachnorn - Game broadcasts ...
