My point is still the same. You are talking about people making thought out posts and saying that at least one paragraph means it contributes much better to the topic, which isn't true.

But if you still think it's different, explain what you actually meant.
each post was at least a paragraph. Why do you think you don't see as many well thought out posts here?

I never implied that.You are talking about people making thought out posts and saying that at least one paragraph means it contributes much better to the topic, which isn't true.
OK... now you're just going in a circle. I quoted what you said that made me think that and I said if that's not actually what you meant, then please explain what exactly you did.Propaganda Man said:I never implied that.You are talking about people making thought out posts and saying that at least one paragraph means it contributes much better to the topic, which isn't true.
Could you explain what it is you're discussing in the first place?Propaganda Man said:Storm...you're confusing me. Could you just tell me why you think I'm wrong using words I wrote?

I found another forum where members, argued, bashed, and discussed varies things. The thing that stood out to me is that each post was at least a paragraph. Why do you think you don't see as many well thought out posts here?
Also, this post, the one that you're reading isn't bashing anyone. Its asking why is it that even though the members mature TBT doesn't.
...each post was at least a paragraph. Why do you think you don't see as many well thought out posts here?
When did I say my post had nothing to do with it.STORMCOMMANDER said:Yes, and I quoted a part of it saying how that's what you meant. I was explaining that you were associating posting paragraphs with thought-out and appropriate discussion.
...each post was at least a paragraph. Why do you think you don't see as many well thought out posts here?
In this thread you used an example of a "well thought out post" by saying you found some people "arguing, discussing, and bashing".
But then you said that had nothing to do with it. So I asked if it doesn't, then what is this thread about? But then you just quoted something I had already read.

And what is "it"?
Could someone help me out here?
Where did I say what you're saying
I didn't ask for a lesson on pronouns Storm. Show me a quote of what you say I'm saying. Ditch the pronouns. If you can do that maybe I'll be able to understand why you think I'm wrong.STORMCOMMANDER said:Yes, I've been trying to help.Propaganda Man said:When did I say my post had nothing to do with it.STORMCOMMANDER said:Yes, and I quoted a part of it saying how that's what you meant.

"It" usually refers to what's currently being discussed. In this case, "it" is what I said, and what you said you "never implied" (see quote above as well).

No, don't bother. Bottom line: "Long" (as you say) aka one paragraph posts do not make a topic/discussion better. Thought and care must be put in these posts in order for it to contribute; plus some maturity from said poster. Why is it that when members seem to mature, TBT does not?STORMCOMMANDER said::wacko:Propaganda Man said:I did and got a headache.STORMCOMMANDER said:Read my original post on the topic.

2) How is TBT not mature? By not allowing topics about politics?
3) Who are the "TBT members"? Clearly everyone isn't acting in unison. Sure, maybe some member have grown up a little, but how does that change anything? Any forum is still going to have a wide variety of members.
