Newbie, Politics, Hypocricy
All righty then. It appears as though this little political battle is going to go on for awhile. I guess I’ll just sit back and learn from the experts in civil adult dialog. I now see what some folks mean when they say the (MCS Blogs) is a great venue for the exchange of ideas, and much knowledge can be gained from this process. So far what I have learned is as follows. 1) Sarcasm is expectable. 2) Innuendo is cute. 3) Deception is the tool to use, to drive your point home. 4) Name calling is fine, as long as in your opinion, you are in the right and you have allies to back you. 5) Personal attacks are just another way of saying , I respect your opinions. 6) Never surrender, keep the argument going until your opponent is exhausted. 7) If a newbie uses these tactics, remind them they are new, have no opinion, and put them in their place. I have pointed this out before and I am compelled to point it out again. I have been in the midst of such debates and know first hand how these tactics are applied, and the hypocritical application of these tactic are ok for some and not for others. Newbies beware, check your spelling, never argue with the elite of MCS blogs, always remember the are smarter then you. Never use the same rules of engagement that the elite use, for those rules are exclusively patented by and for them. Finally welcome to MCS blogs I am confident you will enjoy the tremendous learning experience in civil, fair, and honest hypocrisy. That’s just my opinion, I could be wrong. TRUTHHURTS

I just write what i feel, that gets me into trouble sometimes but who's counting. Often times after i take my foot out of my mouth, i sit back and think, what was i thin....typing. A lot of what you said is true truth, but what's that soap opera..........."as the world turns" Maybe one day i'll graduate from a newbie to an oldie

I just read, smile and sometimes jump in. The human experiment. Is there any intelligent species out there, that will ever figure out what we did to ourselves one billion years years from now, when all this turns to dust and the earth cleanses it self of the parasite that now infects it? Those who give up freedom for security have neither. People are talking about ...Here are the recent blog postings with the most comments. |

TH;
Depending on the subject, I think you pretty much hit the target. Though I don't think it really has anything to do with how long you've been on the site.
I've been here for a while and still have to break out my Mithral on occasion.
I'd expect this political battle to go on well beyond November. Hop on, hold on and enjoy the ride. You can pretty much bet that it is going to be a wild one.
It's better than Disney. You don't have to stand in line and all it costs is time. Of course some of us still act like children sometimes but hey, it makes life interesting.
