I know how pretty much any old time poster will react to a question by now, I can even predict to myself who will say something like 'I hate to agree with Ustwo again but....' when I post on a subject. I'm sure most know my reactions too.
but this is a separate problem.
it is a driver behind the waves of boredom that i expect anyone experiences who has played anywhere like this long enough experiences.
i think it follows from the simple fact that every time a debate takes place, it starts all over, without reference to what has happened before.
that there are new folk around for whom what has happened before isn't necessarily relevant compounds the problem--but it is different from this topic, and may be a structural problem with messageboards themselves.
