This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Misplaced Pages contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Misplaced Pages's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints.
This page in a nutshell: One has to deliberate and evaluate fully and then come to a considered opinion before giving one's opinions in a forum where one's opinions could be subject of debate and conjecture which could reflect upon oneself and lead others to form an opinion as to one's opinion.
Bradspeak, a term coined on the talkpage of User:Iridescent in 2011, is the formal, deliberate, and exhaustive style in which Misplaced Pages functionaries communicate in public in order to cover their backs and forestall any possible criticism, or any use of their opinion to further a wikicrusade, or for any other inappropriate purpose. Bradspeak is named, somewhat unfairly, after long-time arbitrator User:Newyorkbrad.
