- Pretty strong words, eh? I actually agree that sometimes the debate
- in this forum becomes to much ad hominem based, but usually it takes
- two to tango. There's an easy way to zap such cases, and that's for
- instance to avoid responding, and let the other part ramble on for
- a while.
-
- I think in your case if you want this 'misery' to stop, just don't
- feed the existing flaming, and I'm sure things will cool down.
-
- Additionally, if you have opinions and you present them , you should
- be prepared to see people tear them apart. Then again, if you think
- you are right, you don't have anything to loose.
-
- Calling deamons that are responsible for the misery requires
- some kind of evidence in order to justify the case.
-
- Cheers,
