I find some of the discussion in this thread very ironic indeed
You read my mind. Unreal.

That's a fair point in as far as it goes but you could also try and address why it is your posting style, as opposed to your opinions, seems to rile up quite a few posters here.
For some reason my account doesn't allow me to block forums anymore. Otherwise, I'd consider blocking FYM.
There's so much to dislike about this forum now.
What are we going to do now it's all been said,
No new ideas in the house and every book has been read.
And the style of discourse has become more obnoxious -- on all sides -- and that doesn't exactly make this a place many people are comfortable posting in any more, which means we are even less apt to see new faces.

When I first joined everyone's viewpoints were new to me. But I've been here six years, and while there have been new people over that time, there isn't that big burst of newness for me. There are only so many times I can discuss the same topics with largely the same people without it getting stale.
Do you really find it so? I remember the style of discourse back in 2005 as much more obnoxious if anything - for which, I admit, I was partially to blame.
Brilliant Post u2387!

I do still read just about everything two or three people post here, and at least skim threads that seem interesting, so I'm still getting some value from it.
I disagree completely. I for one know my "style" in the past was wrong and I was called out on it from people who shared my same views.
the best way to fix free your mind is to limit every thread to 50 posts. nobody is allowed to post more than twice per thread.
pointless circuitous arguing = abolished.
except spin offs aren't allowed, unless it's because the previous thread had 1,000 posts.Interesting, except I think it would just lead to more threads being started to continue the debate from the previous thread.
As long as your comments are about the ISSUE and not another forum member, style should not be a problem.

This thread is too funny. We couldn't do a better parody of fym if we tried. Maybe we did try. And if so, this is genius.
