The CDZ is a good idea, and I'm glad it's here.
But is anyone else bothered at any level that it's needed? I was just in a thread that was going along just fine, and then a usual suspect came in and completely misrepresented what I said -- I mean, it wasn't even close. And then the thread went straight into the toilet and that was that. Again.
Serious question -- how are we supposed to fix any problem, or come to any understanding, or reach any agreement when there are people who are just so willing to drop a grenade into the conversation?
If your answer is, "well the USMB isn't really meant to be taken seriously," okay, I can see that, but it just seems like this kind of behavior is polluting far more than an online discussion board.
Sad to see, it really is. We're facing significant decline here, and it's getting tougher and tougher to find honest conversation.
Just sayin'.
