Dueling threads

[Luvinmybaby 0]

The off topic forum has been taken over by extremist from both sides. A pro Israel person posts something obviously meant to inflame the pro-muslim people here, we argue about it for a while then a pro-muslim person posts something equally inflammatory for the other side.

Personally I am getting sick of it. Grow up people!

You're sick of it after being a member here for only 2 weeks? (Welcome, by the way!) That didn't take long.

I've been here for 2 years and can tell you that's not an uncommon occurence and isn't really posted for the reasons you've mentioned (Ok, maybe sometimes). This is a INTERNATIONAL forum - there WILL be international opinions on things.

Grow up, eh?

Well, I've been here a bit longer than that B) and I have to admit that I joined in to the fray for entertainments sake. But my point is that it seems to be getting out of hand! We are not going to solve the mid-east problems here. That tiny spot of land has been fought over for as long as there have been humans on earth! The Jews, Romans, Persians, Arabs, British and coutless others have fought and claimed that land. All sides have blood on their hands. All sides spin and twist facts to meet their own ends. It will not end until the judgment day comes when the God of the Jews, Muslim, Christian or some little green men from mars comes down and settles it. We will not settle it here.

Maybe so. But this is the "Off Topic" forum and as such, you will find subjects that are off topic from the norm.

If you can't stand the heat....

I like dualing piano bars.

I like dueling banjoes.

Oh, I can stand the heat. But I think with all thats going on over there that some emotions are running a little "high". It's no skin off my nose if some people want to argue endlessly but it does get to be a little tiresome to see it escalate into a endless flame war. I don't see the purpose of it all other than to get both sides pissed off. But, thats just my opinion. Take it for what it's worth, nothing.

But it's like a train wreck! I don't want to watch but I am compelled to!

See you're giving off this implication that all we do is flame each other, when that's not the case.

You started this thread saying you're 'sick' of it, so when the suggestion comes by that you just not read them....then you say you can't help it, like a train wreck, etc. So why complain then?

You can't stop yourself from reading them, so you want everyone her to stop posting them?

If you really feel outraged by a thread, you can a) ignore it or b ) report it. But starting this whole 'I'm sick of it thing' when you've only been here 2 weeks seems a lil strange to me. What do you expect? Everyone to say 'oh ok soandso doesn't like it when we do this, so let's all stop'

Just confused here as to what you're really sayin.
