Do you actually believe anything posted in the D&D anymore?

The secret is picking your battles. Not everyone is interested in an intellectually stimulating debate, many are just looking for a 'reaction', and they keep coming back for more every time they get it. So "know your audience" and know the "who is who" of the D&D, and you just might learn a thing or two, not to mention it will be easier to navigate through the forum.

Oh, and stay out of the partisan stuff, the overwhelming majority of those threads that bash one side or the other are for trolls and those who let themselves be goaded into responding, so there is little/no value in any of them. My advice is to stay out of them altogether, regardless of how strongly you feel about the topic; we have quite a partisan crowd here (left and right).

So if you're new here, welcome...

 

Steps necessary to get through threads in the D&D.

Open thread.

Grab this



and apply to initial post liberally.

Enjoy!

 

You mean conservatively you commie pinko.

why can't it be "apply moderate amounts and enjoy"?

 

I dunno. I thought the nuclear weapons topic would be interesting to some foreign policy geeks. Especially with Dubya shaking things up with our rivals and enemies.

 

I think a lot of posters who criticize the D & D don't spend enough time here and get hung up as soon as they see some of the inflamotory sputim being hurled. There actually is a lot of good and interesting info that gets posted here and given the diversity of backgrounds and interests there is a lot of interesting stuf. I mean you've got libertarian Jesus Freaks debating NASA obsessed quasi-Buddhist now that's bound to be interesting.

Anyway I don't see how anyone can bag on the D & D for being inflammatory and phony but put up with the truckloads of garbage on the GARM.

 

Then you should go start a thread about why weed should be legalized. Seriously, if you want to see these things make a thread.

 

Plus there's been several threads on the subject.

 

We're monkeys flinging poo at each other. What in the hell do you expect? Shakespeare?





Impeach Bush and Save us from Canada!

 

I've flung my typewriter from time to time, but give me a thousand more years.

 

Let's put it this way as far as the original question: Do you actually believe anything posted in the D&D anymore?:

There are precious few in here that can cross a street safely because they look only to the left or only to the right. Not many look both ways.
