First post. Hoping there is no childish name-calling here like I've experienced on other boards. In my 70 years I've been called many things due to my periodic memberships in the Republican, Democratic, and Green parties. I have run for office against all of them. I look forward to lively discussions.
 
You have come to the wrong place then .
This is a chat site for predominantly old Snowflakes who would not know a Debate if you flapped one in their face .
Intelligence and knowledge are a huge disadvantage here but blind prejudice and gullibility are treasured .
By all means, good luck , and take my place as I am completing transfer arrangements .
Going back to join the young professionals after seeing how the other half live .

Welcome.

I don't mind being called a name when evidence can be provided to support the definition of the name. Still, it's safer to call what somebody says as idiocy or lying rather call that somebody an idiot or a liar, even if the frequency of idiocy or lies may support that the somebody is, arguably, an idiot or a liar.

You'll be missed.

Is there some reason you need to continue to post here while "completing transfer arrangements"?

Don't get your hopes up. Name calling is an art form on this site. Welcome.

I love mixing with people like you .

A source of endless anecdotes , always guaranteed to get dinner and pub conversations rolling with laughter .

The only problem I have had so far is getting people to accept that I am not exaggerating .

I never left actually .

I have been here to cure myself of wasting time on Cryptic Crosswords and playing too much on-line bridge when I should be watching the markets .

I failed .

You should concentrate on newcomer Volunteer . He also might be intelligent and knowledgeable and a much nicer and forgiving replacement versus the lovely Monique .

Welcome, like all boards there is a mix of posts and posters. Like mentioned before, read the rules and explore the many sub-sets to the forum.

I don't think you should leave. Your opinions seem to trigger others. That's not your problem.

Welcome to the forum. Always interested in sparring with newbies. I hope my calling you a newbie doesn't offend you. ;)

There is bound to be SOME of that, but when it gets to be too much, mods step in and take appropriate action.
Once you familiarize yourself with the rules and get to learn the ropes, you'll get a feel for the atmosphere here.
There are plenty of good folks here, but yes, you do need to adjust to the signal to noise ratio...it's not perfect and you will have to decide who and what to filter out.

But definitely learn about the RULES...there are a lot of important ones.
Cheers, mate.
 
If you're looking for high quality discussions and maybe even some debate, you should probably log off the Internet.

If you want to splash in the shallow end, jump on in.

Welcome. :)
