So long everyone, you are a great bunch of folks. |
|
I just can't post any more. Every time I try to express my opinion in General discussion I am shouted down by the extreme left membership here. It's as if people are waiting in the wings for ANYTHING to be outraged about. I don't feel this is the place for me anymore, I am not an extreme leftist.
So, farewell all! I'm really going to miss most of the fine people here.
OBAMA 08!

It's a big tent. Stick to your opinions; you're entitled to them.

7. Good luck, and hope to see you back soon. |
|
I've found it's just easier to stay out of GD and GD:prrth and post in the lounge, except for when the lounge posting police come out!

8. Take a breather and come back. |
|
Sometimes it helps to take a break for a while. Just remember, your opinion is just as important as everyone else's here.

11. everyone gets flamed. You're not special. |
|
and ranting on that the "extreme leftists" are somehow to most obnoxious and loud contingent at DU is just fucking laughable.
Peace.

If confronted, stick to your guns but reply with reason. If one-liners have to be used, keep them for when there's no alternative.
One-liners, on your part (or worse, theirs) have little relevance in serious conversations; or at least earlier on. If they are so puerile or defensive they can't be bothered to explain their POV, in favor of throwing names or whine about how wrong you are because of how correct they think they are, put the gerbilbrains on ignore. Even wankers are better than trolls.
BTW: It's not always easy to speak one's mind; especially when you disagree with the majority in any given topic.

You're either with us or against us.
We're fighting them in GD so we don't have to fight them in the Lounge.
You know, I rarely post in GD or GD:P. I read a lot over there and I get a lot of info (and a lot of laughs). But I rarely post because I rarely find real debate. Here in the Lounge, I find conversation - silly, much of it, but conversation nonetheless.
That's so funny - I meant to write GD, colon, P and it came out GD:P. Which works somehow. :P
