i agree. this is one of the main reasons why i dont post anything serious in OT anymore. You pretty much know how the replies are gonna go before you even post...and most of those replies wont be helpful

Yeah, I could make two threads on consecutive days, one stating one position, and the next day one stating the opposite. The same people will rip on me for holding either position. I don't think this forum is the WORST for petty hatred, but it's definitely not the bastion of fun it used to be.

OT? LOL, you do hang around P&N right? Now that place is a cesspool of hatred, bias, and ignorance.

That's why I don't go there. I'd prefer not to go to a forum where people with absolutley no knowledge of world history or any critical thinking abilities post.

spot on comparison.

if you don't keep a relationship fresh and exciting by exploring and enacting new things it's going to get boring.

breaking it into 20 or so sub forums really hurt. Many got sick of the place after the "Change of colture" and it has started to lose membership since.
