That's not debating, it's a one-liner competition that really only calls for responses directed towards "yo mamma."
You said in a different post that you like debate among "peers." If that's the case, I recommend stifling the wit a bit.
Frankly, I find the use of "IMO" to be unnecessary and redundant.  [/B]

Snaqwells, I agree with your post. I'm just wondering why Robmoz was singled out for this when others do the same thing. I'm not going to name names but I think a lot of people that are on this board a lot should be able to see that others make posts that are a little rough around the edges. Some of these people have "friends" on this board that will come to their rescue to defend them having never met them face to face. I can see someone's posts and say to myself "I like their style" or whatever but I can't really speak up for them like I see on this board. The same goes for someone that might irritate me, the person that initially gets on your nerves could turn out to be one of your best friends when you get to know them. Good post, I just think it applies to us all.
