I have yet to read a thread here that doesn't have someone calling someone else names before the first page is even filled. Is there ever a serious discussion on this board or is it all about who can get the best put down?

Maybe you're being overly sensitive?

Asshole.

That's USMB.

There are some very sharp posters and some very dull posters. Thicken your skin and you'll enjoy both differently, but immensely.
 
Every so often I get to have a decent policy discussion with someone but it is soon spoiled by the derailment crew here, there is a core group of 5 or 6 "libertarians" who spoil everything they touch, there is no solution since it is exactly the same for every single discussion board on the Internet. It's like the real world where a small group of shitheads spoil everything good by abusing it.

Pssst, follow me! I know where all the serious grown up threads are kept. :tongue:

Oh yeah, and statist progressives like truthmatters, luddy neddite, and MarcATL add SOOO much to the conversation.

More than the "Everything is all about socialist Maobama you fucking libtard" crew that flies into every discussion with guns blazing until everyone quits it.

And again, thats so much worse than truthie repeating the same insipid crap over and over, and luddy making some idiotic statement and never returning to the thread.....

Bias in the force, I sense.

You've never experienced a TM thread, then.

Having an unpopular opinion or peaching to the heathens is one thing, being a massive disruptive prick is another, not going to name names but they are pretty easy to pick out from the crowd. They average about 20 words per post with at least one insult or unfounded accusation per post.

Name calling is usually targeted at the wingers and/or trolls... or started by the wingers and/or trolls to incite conflict to begin with
