No more OT for the "Other Guys" me included
Too bad a few people really ruined for everyone else. Good thing is, pelican is around for those who remained polite and professional. Just in case anyone wonders why the hits Jump on Pelican OT.

If we had a separate "politics" section on OT, it would be a lot nicer place here.

A separate Politics forum wouldnt fix the underlying issue. A course in manners might.

Maybe I miss most of the harsh threads, but I really think OT has become much nicer this last year.

If you do not participate in the Political / Religious threads PPOT is a pretty cool place to browse.
If I see a thread even remotely political I do not click on it, its that simple.

Nothing wrong with zealotry, one could make an argument that we're all zealots - Porsche zealots. Extremists are what I have issues with - whether they're shooting abortion docters or burning Hummer dealerships and ski lodges, we could do without them. Extremisim to the point of irrationality and tunnel vision makes them a kook. The most underused words in here - "we should agree to disagree"

I think what adds to the difficulty of having civil online debate is that it's so hard to convey tone through written words. for isntance; someone tells a great joke, I reply :thats horrible!!
do i mean i dislike the joke, or that it is brutally/cynically comical and I enjoyed it?

"Sometimes you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right."
--The Grateful Dead It's amazing how interesting the world is when you can accept new ideas and stop categorizing everything in terms of "better" and "worse".
