To ensure that the discussion you started will have at least one post.

Guys, I welcome anyone who might want to count me in as one of his/her friends. You will never go unresponded to if you add me. However, if you are anywhere between sometimes rude and always rude or between impatiently sarcastic or boastfully sarcastic, don't bother. I've had enough of the likes of you. If you add me and you stay nice with everyone, my heart is with you. I'll make sure that I play my part as your friend by actively participating in your discussions (except if I prefer not to respond for some reason) and I guarantee, I am always nice with my posts to those who can handle discussion without stepping on anyone's toes.

Thanks for adding me. Of course, we don't have to respond to all the discussions our friends make. But if they could make everything interesting to me, why not. But at least, I make it a point that they will not get a zero response from me in a day. If a friend of mine started two silly discussions or totally shallow ones, I would take the time to respond to the less shallow or the less silly to be able to give him one post. Except if all posts he/she makes in a day are fluffs or the topics are far, far away from me, I will not post.

it is fun to response also on silly discussion... you also need to think that is is for the sake of the earnings. if you are too picky i mean too picky on discussion the earnings will not be that fast. well that is only a suggestion. to each is own. happy posting my new buddy

I know the feeling about rudeness, I tend to stay calm even when it seems like some people are actually trying to goad me in to a fight. I will admit to sometimes seeming alittle blunt, but I use tact even then. I believe in in building people up not breaking them down. I admit to sometimes being stubborn and unyielding about certain things, but even then I allow people to share their opinions and ideas, because who knows they may prove me wrong (It has been done before), and I do not berate or belittle them if I do not agree with their opinion.

Exactly. That is the point. We don't need their agreement all the time to what we have to say because by their disagreement, they're giving us a chance to validate our arguments but some people can't distinguish what pure argumentation is from personal attack. Sometimes, the person who is the source of the idea may be commented upon by anyone but an intelligent and prudent person will always have a way to say his ideas or opinions for a non damaging result.

Ahh yes, the rude ones make me laugh. I dont understand what they are doing here. I'm all for making new friends but the rude ones need to go elsewhere. I totally hear you there and understand what you mean.

In my eyes, if a discussant is rude from the start and expects to win any argumentation or debate, he/she is an upfront loser and he admits it unwittingly. Thanks for posting.

Being able to maintain a discussion, no matter how tough it is sometimes, without being rude is an admirable trait. Keep it up, my friend.

I usually spend my time here by participating in my friends' discussions and once in a while, start my own. It could be just any topic but not silly.

Thanks clowdine! Great day for me that day I added you..lol, I also dont understand others who are very close-minded or will easily insult someone.Maybe they have reasons but still not a very valid one to do it to others! We all deserve to be respected! and there is always a nice way to disagree, be careful in the words we are choosing as not to hurt others!
