Comfortably Moderate
I'm seriously thinking about moving on to another board. The reason is simple, I'm really getting fed up with the totally super partisan threads that are based on nothing but talking points. Also, there are rare discussions on this board, it's always someone stating an opinion and then followed up with posts containing derogatory comments flying both ways sans facts. I try very hard not to stoop to this level but sometimes it gets really hard not to get fed up.
It seems to be requirement to personally insult someone who disagrees with you.
I find this trend to be boring and certainly not stimulating.
This board isn't lacking intelligent posters, it's just that they get drowned out by hyper- partisans who would prefer going to the gutter approach. I would love to know exactly how many threads end up going off-topic because of posters with partisan anger issues.
So anyway, it's time to go shopping for a board that is dominated by cool heads, good fact filled discussions by posters who have the ability to think for themselves.
