Funny this thread got bumped to the top right now, I actually just logged off of Facebook because someone I don't even know wanted to argue with me over something petty and ridiculous on my friend's comment page. It's like, come the fuck on.
Arguing on the internet is a whole other animal too. Most people will say things they wouldn't dream of having the balls to say if....confronted with that person in real life. Anyone can be a badass behind a computer screen....
I actually left SW for a while one time because I was SO sick of the stupid arguing. It was really annoying to have to scroll through pages of BS to get to some good information. Over nothing, like, spelling errors. The "spelling error" card is always pulled when one person runs out of ammo "You can't even spell right" or "Use correct grammar next time" or whatever....then there would be arguing back and forth about that in place of the subject at hand. So I'd have to scrool through 8 pages of two people arguing about grammar to get to some responses with substance.
I have noticed that it's calmed down alot. The only other thing that bothers me is the race wars. I see some pretty non-confrontational, innocently inquisitive comments taken WAY too personal and misconstrued.
Umm, did I spell all that right ?
