[QUOTE="Primitive Screwhead, post: 4785903, member: 20805"] IME, there are two types of arguments here on EnWorld 1) Reasoned discusion where the debate moves from a point of contention, resolves that contention and then moves to the next. 2) Discussion that can be boiled down to a debate over a single point and both sides refusing to move from thier stated POV. THe former is great and I love to debate, argue, and get into some heated disagreements on. Regretfully the former is more likely and I have heavily curtailed my posting frequency.... and edit pretty much anything I post here. Its actually been a useful practice to translate to my professional work life :) So, to answer [b]JoeGKushner[/b].. I will keep up the good fight with you, Raven Crowking, HyperSmurf, and a select few others that have proven that they can argue without getting stuck. :) I have not used the ignore list option... I prefer the reminders as to [i]why[/i] I am ignoring someone. Besides, the eternal optimist {that I am not} says that people can change! [/QUOTE]
