That's what we do here.  Opinions.

Some opinions are more fleshed out than others, and some opinions are just vague and conclusory - which sometimes might be acceptable (or at least, adding value) if the underlying facts are already known.

Some topics have either complex facts or controverted facts - which might require some level of additional fleshing out as a kind of courtesy... As we already touched upon, the amount of your courtesy is within your discretion... and understandably, the extent to which you allow your emotions to come through may or may not be under your complete abilities to control.. and surely some peeps will strategically employ emotions - which can also be effective to present or rebut a topic.


No need to repeat.  Each of us have already made our points regarding this angle.



It seems to me that even if some members might not say anything, most likely an overwhelming majority would prefer that topics relate to bitcoin - of course, there is tolerance for a variety of off-topics, especially even regular members will be interested in what some members have to say about current topics of the day.. for the most part, I attempt to minimize my posts on those topics, but I can see how some members will feel inclined to post about some current topics of the day.. and surely in some sense all topics will have some relationship to bitcoin... but I doubt that there are needs to really argue about how much one topic might relate to bitcoin or another because some topics are just more obviously related to bitcoin than others, and no needs to belabor attempts at arguing a connection when the connection might be tangential at best.


Sure.. we can swear at each other.. no problem...... Feels better when it is not forced, though.. #justsaying... also not very effective if overdone, either.

Think about ur lil selfie for a second?  Perhaps your schedule is not exactly under your control, but do you really consider that there is some kind of effectiveness in coming in for short bursts of guns ablazing? and maybe you last a week or two and then you seem to even wear out ur own lil selfie with the level of your purposeful intentionality.    I really do not care that much.. I mean.. I am mostly just responding because you directed your comment at me.  You do you.. and whatever, let's let the chips fall where-ever they will.  Maybe you are purposefully coming out with your level and particular type of annoyances because you are striving to provide a kind of memorable and unique signature.. and yeah.. no problem with that, either.

And by the way, the points that Torque provides in this post might partially be somewhat explanatory of your own erratic behaviors, Cryptotourist.. I don't completely agree with all of Torque's points, but he still captures the  idea that some accounts and posts seem to be ONLY striving to either provide misinformation or to distract our abilities to actually have meaningful discussions because those accounts are just spouting out a bunch of irrelevant nonsense and even just blatant and gratuitous personal attacks... which may well be part of what you have been up to in recent times, Cryptotourist... so don't even act like you are on the side of "good" in whatever non-contributory angles you have been recently taking in this spurt of posts and even in your previous couple of times that you came into the thread to make some purported "contributions" to the talk-of-the-day in this thread.
