I'm all for levity, banter & playful poking as long as it's not making others uncomfortable.
You make some excellent well reasoned arguments but then stand on the virtual table, drop your electronic trousers and wave you cyber wedding tackle at the polite folk on this forum.
That's why there's not a lot going on at the moment.


Sounds just like the me in real life...

I don't doubt it.

Did someone say the 101 was a 100+KG?

I couldn't agree less. It's trolls who kill forums. Most people are not actually interested in discussion with someone who is being argumentative for its own sake & once they figure out the game, they just walk away.

What is good about SA is that trolls are exposed and ridiculed. People here are just too polite about it.

Well other than me, there are no serious trolls here and every time I back away, leave the place for a bit, nobody seems to come and fill the void. SA is a farce, there is very limited intelligent activity there. One thing that can develop here on occasion is thoughtful and provocative discussion, even in the heat of PY threads.
Personally I think it's more a lack of anything new to discuss that hasn't already been done to death, days can go by here with no new posts, whereas most forums have several posts per hour, here we seem to be lucky to get several new posts a week.

Nonsense, for example the discussion on the 101 is far more informative than on here.

SA is actually very civilised. If you play nice. Quite interesting in the ways it socialises participants. I note you don't post there any more. Ah well, it's a tougher crowd.
