IMO war room threads usually end up just as "Gang up on the guy with a short fuse sessions".  Now, I definitely agree that with a preamble in the thread forward like "whiners, thin skins, and hot tempers need not apply", you would expect that some people would stay out.  But, honestly, who is going to admit that and bow out on a fairly anonymous internet forum??

Not everyone is capable of communicating their point via text at the same level ( I have double doctorate MIT grades here who would make RK look like a Shakespeare  :lol: ), plus allot of communication is missed online IMO because you cannot hear a person's voice inflection nor see their body language, which tells me much more of their intent than mere words.

I do enjoy good conversation, I just don't want to see people get there feelings hurt and leave the forum because there facts were wrong, or there opinion is unpopular, and they get beat up for it.

When all is said and done, this is still an ATV site.  And it would be a shame to loose valuable members because there political, social, or religious opinions were unpopular.

Just my .02

Or leave the forum because the moderator is a dick?   :lol:

One of your PMS bitch moments.
