If you want people not to jump to wrong conclusions, then it
behooves you to be very careful with your use of the language and to
try to be very clear in what you're trying to transmit.

Also, if you want to be a "neutral" participant you should refrain
from offering opinions and just stick to the technical facts of the
discussion you're interested in.

Even then, someone will be sure to misinterpret what you meant to
say and will send a barb your way. Complain and it will just get
worse. Return the barb and it will just get worse. A solution?

Actualy good advice. But it sounds like you want to throw the "barbs" as you
wish, and no one is supposed to say anything about it. They are just
supposed to take it when selected few lash out at them. I did that for
decades. Not anymore though. You want to dish it out, be prepared to take
some in turn. Its that simple.

So you were a milquetoast for years and now that mommy's dead and
you can be your own man it's all going to be different?

Good luck.
