Bah...Internet Forums Are All The Same

[Neo Deist]

Been away almost a month, checking out other forums. They are all the same; only the names change. People fussing about Trump or Obama, people endlessly arguing about religion to no avail, and certain sites having extreme forms of censorship.

An entire planet full of people and it's the same old crap day in, day out.

Start a site and manage it to your expectations? Or don't be surprised when people with a myriad of different beliefs, ethical motives, backgrounds don't always agree or get along?

Welcome back. Missed having you around.

 

[Quagmire]

If they're all the same what made you come back here?

I think the problem is everyone thinks they are smarter than everyone else. When they should all just accept the truth that I am smarter than all of them.

Not sure I am back, just stopping in.

We're gooder at it than the others...

I'm glad to see ya back. I have glanced at a few other places myself. I keep coming back here. I blame my strange sexual attraction to flying mice. *cough* @YmirGF *cough*

That's kind of reassuring in a strange way, don't you think?

An honest observation, but how do you explain it?

I explain it in one word >>> ego.

Like the Virgin Mary said “pride is the cancer of the soul.”

The display of so many on the left (way more than the right) these past few months is even worse than the ramblings on these boards. There is no civilily, no courtesy, no honor, no values in their ways. The media leading the charge, no less, which is the biggest poison of all. Plus, it is what they cover up (or under report) that is even more of a dereliction of duty than what they spin and report on.

So no one changes, yet, we all edge closer and closer to the edge of the falls as we age. There will be a real awakening for all of us the day we die and fall over the edge. I thank God for revealing so much to me now and not wandering about (year after year) looking for someone to tell me “what my itching hears want to hear.”

A sign of confounding confidence or serenity on your part.

A world full of clones who all think that they're the unique one.

Grand is one way to describe it.

I dabbled with a debate site and the censorship there was ridiculous. The public votes on the debate once it is concluded, but if one of the debaters did not like the way you voted, they can appeal it and have a Mod/Admin overturn it.

Sigh.

Meh, I'm better off staying away from forums anyway, except for the occasional glance to see if anything interesting is being discussed. There are more important things in life...like sleep.

Debates sound too formal, labor intensive, tedioius & approval oriented.
