Do you know how to deal with an irrational or illogical person?

8. Please don't be too discouraged. It IS better here than it used to be. I REALLY do see more

rational, not so insulting, debate of actual issues instead of personalities.

That said, there are things that go on here that DO give one pause to question WHAT is happening. I have had a few of these experiences targeted more or less at me and have decided that the best thing to do is to write your best stuff, most rational points, least loaded language, focus, focus, focus AND DO NOT PLAY THEIR GAME. Don't respond to bullshit, focus on communicating effectively with everyone else. Take the high road; in addition to the pleasure of being more possibly valid, you also have the fine revenge of leaving the ravers gnashing their teeth in the night.

You can also post to Meta to get some consideration/discussion about how well this forum works and whatever your issues are in a given thread.

Hang in there CK_John! Your perspective may be needed here. Just take it easy, at your own pace and . . .

Never. give. up!
