I have read many a post where it seems like all that is going on lately is arguing and fighting. Example would be the Aussie thread....dear God. This weekend seemed to be somewhat over the top but I see it at times in all threads.

What makes you as posters get so caught up in things? What pushes your buttons?

Everyone wants to be right. Everyone wants to be noticed more than the other person. Everyone has an opinion.

I could go on...but it just happens. Thanks internet!

I don't post NEAR as much as I did. And it's for this very reason. Life is stressful enough, I don't need "virtual stress" to boot. No pun intended. LOL wine cool

People vent on Internet forums and why not? It's probably the most therapeutic aspect of having an Internet connection.

The problem only arises when someone forgets that it's virtual and takes it too seriously...


Google 'Psychology of internet forums'...and add to that, on this site you have a fairly concentrated mix of people who have trouble maintaining personal relationships...that should give you your answer.

If it is the men and the women sometimes it is like a dance. Everyone is flapping the lips to see who has the most hot air.

Can i just stick up for the Aussie`s here.. it`s all about fake profiles, there has been quite a few over the last couple of weeks, they`ve come in and have caused a lot of trouble.. Unfortunatly a couple of regs disagree with each other over this.. Sadly they put it in the forums instead of keeping it PRIVATE. Some have been banned and barred because of it and hopefuly it has all stopped..
Other than that we are all nice people in the Aussie forums grin
