User:つがる/Don't Feed Fire With Fire

If you happen to be or come across a dispute, the best way to deal with it, is to take a short break from Wikipedia, and take things calmly and easy. Sometimes in a dispute or an disagreement, a user may even say "Fuck you" or "Fuck off". These actions are considered to be Personal Attacks and also incivility, and will increase the chances of a block. While staying calm in such situations can be hard or challenging, it is necessary in all ways to reduce the chances of being blocked, and in the long run, will earn you a good reputation, then a user who is not civil or calm.
