Threads run so long these days that they usually go like this for me:

First three posts: helpful answers, getting along fine.
Post four: First derail, anger begins to bubble up
Page two: Brenda says something funny and we lighten up
Page five: A troll pops in and takes offense to everything and everyone. War ensures.
Page twelve: The last flames die out, humor returns
Page fifteen: 3ring says something actually on the original topic, shocking everyone.
Page twenty: Boredom reaches critical mass. Would someone lock this thing already?

The equine mammal requires no further flogging as posthumus assaults serve no greater purpose...or any purpose at all, so please cease and desist.

I don't post how graphics cards are silly and why are they promoting the maker of said card and that everyone should just buy shoes.
Well it's pretty obvious really innit? .. I mean .. I'd be daft trudging through the snow with a couple of GeForce 88's strapped to my feet ... even if they are SLI!!!

You forgot,
Page eight: Graphic disagrees with said troll and declares his undying love to Claire in one fell swoop.

hehe :o what can i say? i am *that* lovable!! lol

I tend to stay away from the graphics cards thread too, though I do try to at least read them to make sure that yes, actually i have no idea what all those numbers mean.

Might just be my perception but the flow of posts is very slow early in the day UK time. What it's like late at night I dunno, I am usually in world by then or offline but it does seem that there is no longer the widespread general posting that there was in the past.

Unless a number of people are cross posting back and forth to each other in a frozen version of a group IM anyway.

I get along with everybody... because I have no backbone or moral fiber, so yeah, I can get along with a shark and a dolphin at the same time...

Usually when the debate gets too heated we have several accommodating posters pipe up with gobs of comic relief or attempts to derail or defuse the thread, which is perfectly OK by me.

I think there are a few posters who need to remember to take their meds, and wait till they kick in before posting, or they may pop a vein.

I am sorry, Jezabell. No matter what you do you can not make everyone happy. I mean, just among friends we have seen in this thread alone Kira wnting to cut me half and pushing Oryx under just because I was feeding her chocolate cake after the 2 hour foot massage. I guess I can over look that because I do like the peeled grapes (BTW Kira, if you freeze the grapes next time I can show you a way we can warm them up together -- I'll bring the hot tea so the next lick is oh so warming )

Yosef's boots thump resoundingly as he strides across the room to stand before Farrah, his face hard and impassioned. The leather of his clothing creaks as he raises his arms, then wraps his arms around her shoulder. Holding her gently, he pats Farrah's shoulder, strokes her hair and places a single gentle kiss on her cheek. "We have all felt self lothing at times. Unworthy of love. Where the touch of a whip is better than no touch at all. It is not in me to hurt another, even if they desire it. For this I am sorry because I can not help you face your deamons. The most I can do is help sooth the wounds. Please forgive me, but I will nt abuse you."
