I confess that when I was bored I would go looking for those fights. I don't think I ever started one but I certainly participated, and I know I read posts by people I disagreed with just to get riled up. It was a bit addictive, those little jolts of rage, maybe it wasn't healthy but it was very human. And I do think when it's a good argument, an intelligent one, without that sense that people are sticking their fingers in their ears and shouting "lala can't hear you," it sharpens your own thinking like nothing else because you have to defend those thoughts. That's something atpobtvs was good at, the good kind of arguments, there were probably only a couple people posting who I thought were actually stupid.
