When you come on to the forums, how much stead to you put in other people's opinions here? Do you use it as part of your social network, or do you just think of it as an "unreal world", and therefore of no importance??confused

The reason I ask this is that recently I have noticed several contradictory comments about this, and it is confusing..

One moment, someone is posting a thread, looking for advice/input, etc, and the next (usually if the OP gets a comment made not agreeing with them), dissing that person, and saying that it doesnt matter anyway what that person thinks, as they have never physcially met them in "real life" and therefore their opinion is irrelevant..

I personally find it an interesting and informative medium for getting to know other people. It doesnt matter to me if I never meet them in the physical sense; their opinion is just as interesting, even if I dont necessarily agree with it..

Are we a community here, or not? Either other members' opinions matter, or they dont. You cant be selective!

What do you think?

Yeah, I agree, Jesse! That was my point, really, amuses me when I see people asking for advice/input, and then getting in a huff when its not what they want to hear..laugh

As you say, just like real life! Just strikes me here that people are more likely to be ruder than they would in real life, because they think they can get away with it. Maybe they can, but they still have their conscience to deal with.

Im good thanks, although my back is gone, so Im laid up on the couch!!doh

Hi Merc wave

Yep, agree with that, but its also when someone comes in, complaining about the packs, and then the next minute, seems to be joining one themselves...confused

Leaves me stumped...doh

There are certain people's opinions on here I hold in great esteem, even though I will never meet them, and dont always agree.

CS to me is an extension of my social interaction; its not the be all and end all, but it is certainly important to me what other members think.

Petal I do treat these forums as you see it as well and I also have fun with it..

Can you tell me why when someone doesnt agree or has misunderstood your post they get nasty and then others have a nibble at your ankles as well?

If someone is really ticked off with you why in hell cant they mail you instead of trying to bring your spirit down for all to see on the forums?wave

God knows, Merc...confused

Well, I think I do know, in a way..Some people like drama. Some people also like to play Devil's Advocate for the hell of it. And some people are just attention seeking.
