Usually though, it's not the opinion as much as it is the way things are worded that start the aggressive behavior
Hijacking a thread is the norm here on RCU and is likely the reason for it’s continuous spiral down the toilet. The AMA thread was interesting until the jetpack t$rd was tossed into the punch bowl. The usual misfits sprung into action, opened their skulls and began spilling out fecal matter.
I agree, the jet pack topic needed to be in it's own thread but the resulting back and forth would still be the same
So the infants here need to take their personal grudges and attacks private, but, that is unlikely since it becomes an audience of one that denies bloating the ego.
Some just need an audience or it's not worth the time needed to post something
Diverse opinions are the building blocks for solutions and need to be respected even if you disagree. But that is no longer displayed here where threads devolve into rancorous nonsense and drift away entirely.
Unfortunately, you are correct in that assessment. There are some that have such a need to be right that they can't listen to anything else that contradicts their way of thinking
Sadly RCU used to be a premiere web site I spent countless hours on. Now it’s occasionally ten minutes or less. I surmise the site owner keeps it up as it fits nicely at tax time in the loss column.
Oops, that’s it for my ten minutes. Out.
