From what I see here there is a thin line between putting your views across assertively or in an agressive way.

DodgeBabe: Well, I have 'hosted' some long threads on here, on some contraversial subjects, and in the main have managed to keep them on topic for pages on end.

Its not an easy skill to acquire!

But I think it speaks volumes.

Which is often misinterpreted on the internet, its not the same as talking face to face, there are somehere that think there assertive but to me are aggressive and bully people who are not as articulate with words.

And a big divide in how people view the difference between "strong opinions" and "attacking".

It helps if you direct your comments towards the person who you wish to speak to,some times there are misunder standings...about who the person was talking to.I agree it is harder on line then in person.

demonfairy: An opinion is a statement or thought about an issue or topic,and is the result of emotion or interpretation of facts====An opinion may be supported by an argument,although people may draw opposing opinions from the same set of facts.======Opinions rarely change without new arguments being presented.However ,it can be REASONED that one opinion is better supported by the facts then another by ANALYSING the supporting arguments........After reading this my opinion is that its healthy to discuss topics,as long as its done respecting each others views,is handled in a adult manner.What do you think? ......(no fighting please)


I agree. What are we without opinions?
