Hmmmmm... since this post will have a "677" beside my name, does that grant me more authority than Necratoid and Ayiekie put together? No, I didn't think so either.
I know I'm asking a lot here - this is a political forum in more ways than one - but can we drop the emotional arguements and the illogic, and actually discuss the subject matter? (A couple of specifics, from the thread that Logan's not posting to anymore: Currently, Necratoid is more interested in posting ad Odium and ad Hominem attacks than in discussing the issue at hand. Ayiekie likes The Volvo Fallacy a bit too much.)
Logan, you made some unfounded comments about a person in a highly-emotionally-charged environment. That person has requested an apology, in a highly-emotionally-charged manner. If I were in your shoes, my code of honour would require me to offer that apology, even though the circumstances were highly-emotionally-charged. But that's me.
And with this, I'm going to ignore that thread as well. I'm seriously considering marking the entire "Politics and Other Fun" forum as read every time I login to ezBoard - it might be a more efficient use of my time...
