If people were to "say their opinion", you'd find that there would be alot more posts akin to my original post in this thread. People respond to trolling threads because they take offense. They seek to defend their point of view.JimmyBassatti said:Or, you know, people just say there opinion?

People take offense because trollers and flamers are rather insulting and in-your-face about you not conforming to their opinion. They don't take "opinion" into account, merely the fact that they are right, and their views are fact.JimmyBassatti said:Or do what I said, and stop taking offense when someone doesn't have the same opinion then you, and decides to voice it differently than you?Squid94 said:If people were to "say their opinion", you'd find that there would be alot more posts akin to my original post in this thread.

This is either a very unexperienced user, or a very unexperienced troll.
I sure do love me some irony. A dude says this thread will have a flame war, thus starting a flame war.JimmyBassatti said:Or, you know, people just say there opinion?
