Why are all the posters on this forum so dang grouchy?

I realize a lot of people aren't going to agree with what others are saying but I've noticed that a lot of you are just down right rude. There are several I've noticed that frequently tear down another person time and time again. You need to stop worrying about what other people are saying wrong and stick with your own stuff. People get offended way too easily on here and it's ridiculous. Why can't we all just get along?

Alright Ghandi. First of all I think people need to learn what goes on the general boards and what belongs in the playground. Second if we don't worry about other peoples messages there will be no disscussion. I think the best part of this site is the heated debates between people about their running beliefs. So I think everyone should keep their aggression. I think the guy who posts in all caps would agree with me.

I completely agree. I would voice my agreement more, but every time I post in my usual manner, someone comes through and changes my opinion to regular capitalization.

I do not want to be complacent in my writing. No lowercase letters!
THE CAPITALIZATION WILL CONTINUE UNTIL THE ATTITUDES IMPROVE.

I completey understand where you are coming fromwith this. Just read the posts, he is absolutely correct. I try not to bash what someone says, but kindly offer my own opinion. I find this is getting harder and harder to do with everyone bashing me, I have to fight back...right?

Don't assume every negative thing somebody says about something you say is a bash. There is bashing but it isn't out of control bashing and it does lead to a lot of very constructive criticism that some people on here totally can't handle. The attitudes that are getting on my nerves the most are the people who are getting on here and saying, "I'm not even going to argue because I'm right and your wrong and you are just bashing me." I have been in three heated debates recently that have simply ended because I was "bashing what they believe and that was rude of me." Like seriously how do you want the debates to go? I have seen very very few direct attacks on individuals that aren't warranted. If you can point out some posts to me that completely go off topic to attack an individual then I will stand corrected but I don't see many and I think the attitude in this forum is just fine, save for the people who keep (insert offensive term for getting upset easily here) and ruin great debates!
