Org getting a bit hostile?

[ichi]

hrvojej thats one of the best summaries I've read here - pretty much sums it up.

Recently I've been spending time in the Backroom and (*feigns shocked look*) it seems like most of the people who appreciated my comments already had the same opinion, whilst most of those who felt differently than I before I posted seemed to make no change in position or temperament after reading my pearls of wisdom. But they do seem to enjoy quoting me and pointing out perceived errors in my thought process.

Imagine that.

There is a group of folks who care not what opinion you have, but only on how well you can support or defend it. TBH the folks who seem to like to debate for the sake of displaying/improving their debating skills seem to me to be the most interesting people in the Backroom, and the ones who actually seem to be getting something out of the discussion (other than that most base reason, to vent one's spleen).

doc bean is right, the Backroom provides a place for all the heated dicussions and prolly keeps the temp down throughout the rest of the Org.

My advice, if you don't like it don't go visit, there's plenty of other stuff to do in the other forums, like complain about Rome
