I too agree that this one has a much higher level of conversation. I just like the simple format of the other one. This one is a little harder to follow.

"Bob" is a new addition to that board who is very sarcastic in his replies. Many of them are pretty amusing, but it's getting others kinda fired up. Jennifer seems innocent and able to handle herself just fine. Rut has disappeared lately which makes for a lot less arguments and "sticks and stones" stuff. It'll all be fine when fall rolls around.

I do not think I my "presense" :) has anything to do with the fights on that board at all. It is easier for folks to hide their true identity and hide behind fake names and thoughts when they do not agree with you.

Do not blame me for anything, arguments were going on way before I showed up.

The problem with the "other" board and this board is that people worry about what people think that they will never meet in their entire life. It is a "discussion" board, you should expect some disagreement and debates. The problem is that people like yourself take it personally. I am just debating. That happens on the internet. ;)

Peace

It's unfortunate, but I agree. I still look in and read some of the threads, if they seem interesting, but I don't spend much time there. Additionally, I never mention this board when I post on that one. It's very sad, actually. I found McGriff's board a long time ago and I learned a lot over there. But it's degenerated badly.

It's like they're the House of Representatives and this board is the Senate. A little more subdued debate over here.

I might remind my esteemed colleague from the great state
(commonwealth?) of Massachusettes that what happens on the
other board is typical of a mostly unmoderated internet
discussion board. And, with all due respect, I think
you'll agree that things turn to sh1t over there every year
about this time.

Well, I am Jennifer... originally from the other board. All I can really say is, "Never take yourself too seriously." I can always laugh, and Im glad for that. I am a good person, and if you stick around you will find that out. Thank you to the 3 of you who turned me on to this board.

Wasn't trying to "blame you" Rut, just making an observation. There are always going to be debates and those are great...when they are about basketball situations. However, it's too bad when they deteriorate into 15-post threads and get personal. IMHO, that takes the productivity (and the enjoyment) out of it for a lot of people. That's all.

Seriously, what's so funny about me asking that question? I really don't get it.

Note to "Jennifer". Are you really former television actor Jimmy "JJ" Walker? If you are - DYNO - MITE!!!
