I don't know how many of y'all debate in the debate forums, but for those who do, why are some people so rude? They think they can slap on a smilie and that makes everything nice. Dude! I just wanna scream and be rude right back, but what good would that do? Aren't debates about respect? Grr...sorry, just very frustrated. :/

Welcome to the ladies forum, sis!! :D Guys, Allow me to (re)-introduce my bestest friend ever. Give her a big hug everyone! :hug: As far as the post chica, whenever people can hide their faces behind a post, they'll say whatever they want. Most people will never speak up like they do in online debates. So of course they'll be more cruel and rude on the internet, because hey, they'll never see you face to face anyway, so why not? Yeah, it's a cruddy excuse, but they're stubborn and coming to the debate with the mindset that they will change what others believe. I was just in a debate in chat yesterday, and (fully honest) I was talking to this guy in a PM. He kept telling me that my points were invalid and wrong, and that i would never understand the subject that we were talking about. So I asked him, "Okay, please tell me where you think I am wrong here, so that we may clear that up and I'll be better educated. Where am I wrong, and what do you believe is right?" Him: "... I don't know. But you'll still never understand!" Really now? If you think I'm wrong, then you really need to know what is right before you completely bash something just because you don't want to hear it. Anyway, I'd say take a break from there because they aren't very respectful, and that never changes. That's why that forum is towards the bottom and not the top. :D Let Marc-o have at it though. He sounds like he'd have a blast.

Anna!!!... Wait, am I allowed to say your name? Good to see you! :D
