I don't look at online forums as a place I need to brush up my debate skills, but as an extension of conversation that I might have in real life with a real person. IRL, my conversations are more like the pub discussions we have here. I don't have the time, nor the desire, to scour the internet to provide a bibliography. Given that I have difficulty with translating my thoughts into written words, that is the best I can explain my point of view. I suppose the whole setup and style of the politics forum just irks me. Maybe I'm just biased.
