People already try to police opinions here rdos, point in case one user feels that they have a more valid opinion than another use and it justifies their behaviour even though the other person has stepped out of the debate and asked that it stop.

That's what I'm getting at here. There seems to be a belief system by the more vocal members that they have a more valid opinion than another person and rather than listen to others, they beat the forum into submission .

i can not find a discussion about this alex, but to prohibit numbers from topic titles may go some way to solving the spam problem

Let's be honest: we all know who the "few angry men" are that everyone is talking about. Everyone knows, even the men themselves. See the ones getting all angry and defensive in this thread? Yeah, that's what they do ALL OVER WP. Will anything be done?

your post is just indicative to me of your propensity to "gossip monger", and you wish for people to mention those who you are too afraid to nominate in order to perpetuate the thread.
whatever. that is how i see it

This is a personal attack against me. What will be done about it?

Person A baiting, Person B falling for the bait, Person A reporting it, Person B taking the hit and Person A being allowed to continue with their behaviour. Another thing pointed out by earlier posters.

This place seriously has no hope.

it was just a personal observation. i announced that.
censorship is what you require to be strengthened, and so if you tell me soon what you want me to retract, i will do so.
you delicate little feebly established flower

unfortunately upon further investigation, i have discovered that i can not alter my previous posts if they have a subsequent post, so no matter what you say, i will not be able to accommodate your desire for a retraction.

Being angry about not managing to get into meaningful relationships is a natural process, so what you are proposing is to silence people's opinions and experiences, which is not really helpful. The ideal would be if L&D was so supportive that these "angry men" stopped being angry because they got into meaningful relationships. The latter is the only positive solution.

i do not care who is angry or not angry. it is just like going to the zoo and watching animals interacting with each other.

ha ha yes, but also equally potent animals (like lions and bears (or humans and anything else pitted against them, ( or even a level above that))) . that is a good picture, i will look at it again.
love is fluid across all forms of life and it is the same for all.

10 pages. Is Alex still following this? I don't know if the thread has veered off topic or not.

Our real experiences are invalid because it runs counter to their beliefs to how the world should be.

I adapted myself to the reality of the world instead of trying to keep pretending it's all smiles and rainbows as I believed growing up. We live in the real world not the federation from star trek.

Though even the federation didn't always live up to its moral and equality believes

That's correct. The world is not perfect.

But we should aspire to make it as perfect as possible.

If we have an objective like this, we could evolve and get better.

Without this objective, we just stay the same.
