My biggest issue with "discussion" in a forum is that they are "usually" not productive. The participants keep repeating the same arguments over and over. Restating in slightly different words. Also, it seems that people involved can't determine that they have stated their position and there is nothing more to say.

But, isn't that all that is important. You've stated your case, and presented your argument and issues. The fact that you have convinced anyone of "your" beliefs or moved them to your position should not matter. I think people that expect that to happen is when things break down. They start going from reasoned facts and arguments to statements like "You are just too stupid to understand" or other more personal statements.

Is it really that important that everyone agrees with you? It is not to me... which is why I don't (I hope I don't) get to the the point of personal insults and such. I just agree to disagree and move on with my life.
