Well, let's use ScottS's previous post as an example. He says that he's not an edition warrior, which I would infer as meaning he didn't intend his post as an "edition war" post.I disagree that the distinction isn't subtle. You will see some people complaining about a thread being an edition war and other people disagreeing that it is.
But, ultimately, what's the difference? The behavior of the participants in the thread. All it takes is a couple of fools to turn a thread that's a decent debate and tilt it into an edition war.
Yet, I for one, and TurtleJay for two, see it as nothing but 100% inflammatory, trolling, baiting, edition warring. 100% no ifs, ands, or buts about it. ScottS can then try and rebut his comments as constructive or not, but it's irrelevant. It's already out of the bag that I take his previous post as absolutely incendiary. I cannot even possible come up with a constructive response to his points, because his points are 100% non-constructive.
Do you not agree with this assessment? Because ScottS and TurtleJay/me as a given example don't see eye-to-eye on this then Edition Wars will always exist. Moreover, they are guaranteed to not be productive debates or discussions.
