Hey everyone, this in an internet forum, not a matter of life and death, chill out.

So wait...if its the internet, and shouldn't be taken seriously, then why are you commenting on me commenting on people who comment about how horrible it is for threads to get deleted and how much of an emotional wreck they are after certain people on here post certain comments. You can comment on my comments all you want, but I really don't care at all what you have to comment about because its Greekchat/The Internet.

But if it's the internet, why are you responding to my comment about your comment on people taking the internet too seriously?

EL OH EL.

An internet forum - for those who are frequent visitors - serves as a town square/water cooler for discussions.

Just as I'd be passionate about a cause in person, I would be online.

Some people who I discuss issues with, I'd love to meet. Others, I am glad our paths will never cross.

Like it or not, the internet is a place to share ideas and points of view. Saying "get a life" is a cop out.

To have a good discussion, one must "attack the issue, not the person." Unfortunately, many people online do not understand this.

Oh, and BTW,as I mentioned in another thread: I've been on GC for 6 years & haven't reached 1000 posts. Some people have reached 1000 in just 6 MONTHS! And they say get a life?!

For the most part, I would agree with your rather nice posting.
