[QUOTE="AE 87, post: 656370, member: 195"] I still think the actual problem is irrational vs rational. I'm not saying that emotional or irrational contributor is always wrong. The irrational can have the correct opinion while the rational can have the incorrect opinion. The problem with irrational contributors, imo, is that you can't have honest disagreement and fruitful conversation. I recently saw someone respond to a post with simply, "You obviously didn't watch the game," or wtte. How is a person expected to have a rational response to this. When the irrational contributors reach a certain level, the threads cannot help but become shouting matches where posts are liked because they support the right "side" rather than because it was actually a thoughtful contribution.
