These numerous posts of people's frustrations with arguments are all hypocritical, whether the frustrated realize that or not. People can yell, whine, lament, complain all they want about how argumentative DoS is getting, but nothing is going to change if that's all they do.
It's time to face it. No one person agrees with everything another person says, no matter how much they like that person. Arguments and disagreements are a fact of life, and no matter how much the crowd seems to hate it, arguments will never cease to exist. Even if we all start hugging each other and passing out flowers left and right, soon someone will think they didn't get enough flowers as someone else did, or they weren't hugged with quite
as much affection. No one likes everyone all the time. Some people just hide it better.

I agree. This is a cork board, not a child's sandbox. Leave the childish bickering for more private areas.

::Simply writes::
Lily,
I understand your concern and desire to have the bickerings end. I agree with you, yet I am partially to blame for the disagreements. However, my intentions were not meant to cause the problem. I wanted my challenge to go public, so nobody would be in the dark. It would be nice, however, if some of the arguments would end. As Ally pointed out, though... It won't go away.
I believe we all seek arguments to end... Remember this, though... Arguments began when man started to stand up for what they believe is right. We are all individuals, and we go by our own morals.
A man gained respect, when he stood up against ten people, who claimed he was wrong with his religion. You show more strength when you stand up to the general people, as opposed to individuals.

Won't be as much bickering, if you stop instigating them, Huma.

:: A small bit of poetry can be found at the bottom of this string of posts ::
Ah, duelers, let us be true
To one another! For this Arena, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
Once so enjoyable, so beautiful, so happy,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused arms of struggle and flight,
Where ignorant swordsmen clash by night . . .
::since it is totally unlike his personal character, the author is sure to leave this post unsigned::

Yes, I think we've all seen enough of people arguing with each other rather than simply beating the tar out of one another in a friendly manner. If we can't fight like civilized pacifists with swords than what have we?
These arguments can only lead to more fighting, then next thing you know we'll all be drawing swords on one another and...
nevermind.

Alyxz,
In some instances, it has come down to people drawing their swords on one another.
I'm not saying this to start an argument, I'm only stating facts.
