is this a "forum", F.B., online thing or the state of modern society?

1) when a question is asked. Instead of answering it many feel compelled to voice their opinion. Completely ignoring the question they harp on about what thy think is good/bad about it. Then others join in the debate. The original question gets buried in B*S* ,opinions and heresay. Some people seem to love this.

2) I've seen many wso's say something like "this is 100% different to my previous wso." "There are NO upsells." "I offer a 100% money back guarantee."

Then post after post asks

"is this different to your pevious wso?"
"Are there any upsells?"
"Do you offer a money back guarantee?"

It doesn't bode well does it? They either can't read, understand or didn't even bother to read the o.p. before relying. But thay want to run a business? Good luck with that. I wouldn't evn rely to such people. They failed on test 1.

I am not sure this is typical on forums only or is it society in general?

      Doesn't matter - the OP has been on a posting frenzy and has nothing good to say about anyone.

      What's wrong with many people on forums?

      They have to deal with arrogant, entitled types who think their opinion is the only one that matters.

        To the OP. And what really wrong with us? We can't spell "people".

    I can't say, but 10 minutes before this thread was started I DID mention, in response to a popstocks post, that from the first time I recall seeing bitcoin mentioned here, and also the end of last month, bitcoin actually LOST money! I also mentioned how people getting between the buyer and seller effectively inflate prices.

    I wasn't saying anything about bitcoin other than it was volatile, and I made that clear.

    Whatever.

      YEP, but I was basing the loss in dollars. SO, if I look at this as an investment, in those two time frames, US dollars were a BETTER investment! BAD? YES! HORRIBLE? YES! But STILL BETTER!

    I think this sort of poor communication skill takes place often, both online and off. I certainly see it happen on internet forums but during regular social conversation it can happen as well. Listen to sports talk radio and it seems to be the norm. People ramble on, get off topic, misinterpret statements and get off on tangents unrelated to what started the conversation.

      Kurt, I have to say that that is one of the most sensible and smartest things I've seen anyone write in the last 1 3/4 minutes. I, for one, sincerely appreciate it.

        Peanuts make you fat??!!!
        Sugar makes you fat???!!!

        Now you tell me. Well, that explains the terrible results I've got from my "Baby Ruth" diet. I've been eating 12 a day, and I still can't lose weight. Now it all makes sense.

    The Peanut Butter, Jelly, and Bacon hamburger I mentioned a few weeks ago was actually pretty good. No jelly next time though - kind of overpowered the other flavors.

      I always thought Peolle (pronounced pee-oh-lay) was a spreadable Italian luncheon meat made from source material of questionable origin. People who eat Peolle are also known as "Peolle."

        Sounds to me like they are hallucinating and have eaten a few too many peolle buttons.

            I don't like pepper. I prefer salt and my salt makes me decent, dependable and unpretentious; a good type.

            Huh? How did I come to that conclusion? Well my name is Terra which makes my salt, the salt of the earth. The salt of the earth refers to decent, dependable, unpretentious, good types.
