Forums: The Debate

[Ich_Bin_Butler]

What the hell happened in my post up there? I have like a random quotation mark and I just kind of jumped into another sentence from there. Ugh...

Updated views: Our discussions aren't always there for us to change people to our side of thinking, but to make them understand our points of view and to learn about theirs. There's also the people who just like to stir up trouble and it's always fun having back and forth yelling matches with them.

Then there's stuff like the chance for me to see what people other than my friends think about my stories. I don't have too many up (nor have I written any that aren't on that thread) but I'm working on something for my creative writing class that'll kick ass if I do it right.

Besides arguing is fun!!

I feel arguing can be fun if we as mature adults can stay on that level of a mature adult by being able to disagree and still remain respectful and courteous towards others and thier different feelings and views being different from our own. Forums can be so enjoyable and relaxing if we all would respect others when they do post different views and feelings so opposite from our own.

Arguing is fun. If you have someone who as something to say about something and you have to differ there opinion. That creates a good argument. However some can be dumb. I guess that's what makes forum different.

We can have proper arguments that actually mean something.

No, i don't think we are wasting our time here. If we're having fun thats the main thing. But if we're going on all day, then you're getting a bit carried away.
