But of course, that all depends on what one wants to give to and get from a forum thread. You want communication and give-and-take and perhaps learn and perhaps teach something, then the above is required.
If you want something else, then you participate in an entirely different manner. |
Largely agree. Additionally there is no requirement to play any particular game anyone may wish to impose on you. Questions go unanswered in forums all the time.
I suggest that I am allowed to post or not post on topics as I wish. Until a rule about having to answer every question and / or post on every topic is enacted I will happily retain my option to post or not to post as I alone decide. If I want to talk about religion, pizza, SL, etc. I (and I alone) will decide when and where, and I will decide what I share or do not share.
I have already responded to tracer's question that has his panties in a twist. Perhaps you missed it? I have so little interest in what Rush, Beck, etc. have specifically said or not said I am not going to expend any energy to play a game. I am not going to try to think of what I have heard those individuals
actually say and list what I disagree with. That was made crystal clear many pages back.
The extensive back and forth since then is just typical forum stupidity I usually try to avoid. Sue me for playing along this time
