I find these kinds of posts to be frustrating. There have been too many occurrences where I've received undue aggression for merely expressing my own opinion. I blame threads like this one. They only serve to encourage and even instigate such misconduct.

But surely having an opinion on something is why you have a forum. Without an opinion its pretty pointless

Forums are good for more than simply expressing opinions. I've learned a great deal about hidden game mechanics from gaming forums. It is also a lot of fun to read about the feats performed by others. A forum is a place for discussion. It is not exclusively for sharing opinions. My issue is that the OP uses language that can easily be perceived as condescending. There are a lot of idiots that will respond to the OP's condescension rather than to the OP's opinion. Unfortunately, anyone sharing the OP's opinion will also receive the backlash for the OP's condescension even though they may not express it so.

Yeah guess your right

He's merely expressing his opinion that your opinion sucks. All he's doing is expressing his opinion. Quit treading on him

It is because I share the same sort of opinion as his that I am frustrated. People seem to believe that this opinion is only associated with condescending assholes. In other words, I agree with the message but I am offended by the delivery.
